Fix OsmoBTS not restarting if e.g. an external gsmtap IP is configured
that is currently not available. Also make the service files more
consistent with other Osmocom projects.
Partial revert of ae2473c2 ("systemd: Do not restart with a broken
config file or such").

System Information Type 10 uses short L2 header that is transmitted as
Bter UI frame. The complete frame is sent by BSC, including short L2
header. Only the SACCH layer 1 header is added by the BTS.
A switch() statement is used, so other System Information with short L2
header can be added in the future.

Do not forward any message that is received on the uplink to LAPD while
the uplink is not active. If the MS did not recognize (fast enough) that
the uplink is free, it may continue to transmit LAPD messages. A
response by LAPD to these messages is not desired and not required. If
LAPD would respond, it would cause stopping transmission of UPLINK FREE
messages. No MS could access the uplink anymore.
Note: UPLINK FREE messages are repeated automatically until a different
message is transmitted.

The previous logic was wrong, since it was only reactivating the channel
if the provided BS_AG_BLKS_RES was != 1.
Example previously broken scenario:
1- osmo-bsc user sets "channel-descrption bs-ag-blks-res 2" during
osmo-bsc startup in osmo-bsc.cfg
2- osmo-bsc user uses VTY to change it to "channel-descrption
bs-ag-blks-res 1"
3- osmo-bsc user uses VTY to deploy the new config: "bts <0-255>
resend-system-information"
Step 3 would fail beforehand, ending up in a NO-OP.

Other bts models like sysmo,lc15,oc2g properly handled
rel_act_kind=LCHAN_REL_ACT_REACT under the bts_model_lchan_deactivate()
implementation, but bts-trx didn't.
As a result, when BCCH_INFO(SYSINFO_TYPE_3) coming from BSC (RSL)
containing a different BS_AG_BLKS_RES triggers CCCH re-activation,
it would only deactivate it but not re-activate it.
That means no SIs were being scheduled if bts was configured with
"channel-descrption bs-ag-blks-res 2" in osmo-bsc.cfg, and phones would
not see the cell.

The struct gsm_pcu_if_data_cnf_dt was added when the first experiments
mit Ericsson RBS base stations were made. It is essentially a copy of
gsm_pcu_if_data, where the mamber "data" was replaced with a member
"msg_id" (which was originally called "tlli"). Since we didn't know
back then which parameters we would still need at some later point we
kept all the other parameters. However, to this day we never used the
parameters below fn. Even fn was only used for logging purposes, but is
now also unused.
Let's remove all those unused members.
(Since all removed members are at the tail of the struct,
compatibility with other programs that use the PCUIF should not break.)

The function pcu_tx_pch_data_cnf() gets a parameter fn (frame number).
This parameter is then used to populate the member fn in
gsm_pcu_if_data_cnf_dt of the PCUIF protocol. However, the PCU only uses
this parameter for logging and nothing else. Hence it it is not needed
and we can remove it.

To confirm downlink IMMEDIATE ASSIGNMENT messages, we use the TLLI as an
identifier and the related struct member is also called "tlli".
Unfortunately this is misleading since the message identifier does not
necessarly have to be a TLLI. It is just an implementation detail that
osmo-pcu uses the TLLI as a message identifier.
To make that clear, lets rename the tlli member (and variable and
parameter names where it is passed on) to "msg_id".
(Since this change only renames variables and struct members it will not
break compatibility with other programs that use the PCUIF)

Since 95407f3f osmo-bts-trx supports scheduling all CSD specific
channel rates, however the rate adaptation was missing.
On the radio interface we deal with CSD-modified V.110 frames, which
need to be converted to normal 80-bit V.110 frames (RA1'/RA1), which
in turn need to be batched and sent in RFC4040 "clearmode" 160 octet
RTP payloads (RA1/RA2 as per I.460).
Note that this patch comments out TCH/F14.4 in bts_supports_cm_data(),
so that all channel allocations for this mode would be NACKed. The
reason for this is that the rate adaptation functions for TCH/F14.4
are different than the RA1'/RA1 and the RA1/RA2.
For more information, see:
* 3GPP TS 44.021, section 8 (functions RA1'/RA1)
* ITU-T I.460, section 1.1 "Rate adaption of 8, 16 and 32 kbit/s streams"

According to TS 44.018 the UPLINK FREE message must be repeated when the
uplink is marked as free. The BSC sends the UPLINK FREE message once and
the BTS repeats it until UPLINK BUSY (uplink blocked by BSC) or
VGCS UPLINK GRANT (talker accesses the uplink) is sent.
It is important to stop sending UPLINK FREE message when a talker
accesses the uplink and before the VGCS UPLINK GRANT message is sent, so
that stopping must be controlled by the BTS.

When a VGCS/VBS call is established in a cell, NCH is used to notify
about ongoing calls to idle subscribers. Additionally Notification/FACCH
is used to notify subscribers in dedicated mode. This is performed by
broadcasting this messages to all active dedicated channels. The mobile
station can then indicate the call, so the user can join the call.
More importaint is the notification of the calling subscriber's MS,
which initiated the call. This is done on the early assigned channel.
The MS must know on which channel the call is placed. After leaving the
uplink, it must know where to access the uplink the next time.

Do not send notifications here. The notifications are sent on the NCH.
The NLN is used to indicate a change on the NCH, so that the MS will
read the NCH then.
If NLN is not sent towards MS, it will not read NCH to get an updated
list of ongoing calls. Also, it will not allow making VGCS/VBS calls and
might indicate that ASCI is not supported in this call. (Tested with
GPH-610R.)

The location of the NCH is defined by the rest octet of System
Information 1. If NCH is defined, the given CCCH blocks are used for NCH
instead of AGCH/PCH.
The current list of VGCS/VBS call notifications is transmitted on the
NCH. If there is no notification, an empty notification is transmitted
on the NCH.
The Notification List Number (NLN) is used to indicated new
notificaitons. Only the last notification (or empty notification)
indicates NLN. This way the MS can determine after two equal NLN that
the complete list has been recevied.

Random access is allowed on VGCS / VBS channels to access the uplink or
to detect listeners. Uplink Access from a listener is only reported once
after activating the channel. Uplink Access from a talker is reported
each time the uplink becomes occupied. RSL TALKER/LISTENER DETECT
messages are sent to the bsc.
The VGCS UPLINK GRANT message is sent by the BTS itself. Timer T3115 is
used to repeat the message up to NY2 times until one valid frame is
received from the MS (CM service request). The UPLINK BUSY / UPLINK FREE
message must be sent by the BSC.
The uplink is released by UPLINK RELEASE message from the MS or from the
BSC. Afterwards the UPLINK FREE message causes the MS to leave the
uplink without any acknowlege. An RSL REL-REQ must be used to terminate
the link locally. (Without layer 2 DISC procedure.)
