osmo-bts-trx: tx_tch[fh]_fn(): fix sending idle CSD frames

In accordance with 3GPP TS 44.021, sections 8.1.6 and 10.2.3, the
transmission of idle frames to the DTE is mandated when no data is
received from the radio interface.  An idle frame has all data,
status, and E-bits to binary '1' (excluding the alignment pattern).
This requirement is currently implemented for the Uplink, see
function csd_v110_rtp_encode().

However, 3GPP TS 44.021 does not explicitly specify whether the same
rule is applicable to the Downlink, perhaps assuming a continuous
stream of bits on the CSD-over-TDM link.  Currently, we transmit
a sequence of binary '0' on the Downlink instead of idle frames.

* In non-transparent (RLP) mode, whether all bits in a block are
  set to binary '0' or '1' has no impact, as both scenarios lead
  to an incorrect FCS.
* In transparent sync mode, any filling be it binary '0' or '1'
  is perceived as incorrect or unexpected.
* In transparent async mode, it is more logical to transmit a
  sequence of binary '1,' which will be interpreted as
  a sequence of stop bits.

Let's align the Downlink with the Uplink for consistency and transmit
idle frames when no data is available for transmission.  The modified
60-bit V.110 frames exclude the alignment pattern, so sending a
sequence of binary '1' is enough to achieve the intended goal.
