Neels Hofmeyr e0458c2e00 add time_cc API: cumlative counter for time, reported as rate_ctr
This is a candidate for adding to libosmocore (as osmo_time_cc), but
let's first use this in osmo-bsc to make sure that it works as intended.

I started out expecting to be done with this in half an hour, but I
found out that accumulating elapsed time to an integer counter has a
staggering amount of complexity to it, and a million pitfalls.

The intended use is to report allAvailableSDCCHAllocated and
allAvailableTCHAllocated performance indicators in OsmoBSC. Hopefully
this will also be generally useful elsewhere, to be worth the effort.

About OsmoBSC
=============

OsmoBSC originated from the OpenBSC project, which started as a minimalistic
all-in-one implementation of the GSM Network. In 2017, OpenBSC had reached
maturity and diversity (including M3UA SIGTRAN and 3G support in the form of
IuCS and IuPS interfaces) that naturally lead to a separation of the all-in-one
approach to fully independent separate programs as in typical GSM networks.

OsmoBSC was one of the parts split off from the old openbsc.git. Before, it
worked as a standalone osmo-bsc binary as well as a combination of libbsc and
libmsc, i.e. the old OsmoNITB. Since the standalone OsmoMSC with a true A
interface (and IuCS for 3G support) is available, OsmoBSC exists only as a
separate standalone entity.

OsmoBSC exposes
- A over IP towards an MSC (e.g. OsmoMSC);
- Abis interfaces towards various kinds of BTS;
- The Osmocom typical telnet VTY and CTRL interfaces.
