At the moment we can only configure a single BSC in the BTS
configuration. This also means that if this single BSC fails for some
reason the BTS has no alternate BSC to connect to. Lets extend the
remote-ip parameter so that it can be used multiple times so that an
operater can configure any number of BSCs that are tried one after
another during BTS startup.

When the paging queue is filled up to a critical level, pagings from the
PCU should be dropped as each immediate assignment paging from the PCU
is worth 4 normal CS pagings. Also the PCU may still issue pagings if the
paginging queue is already full and CS pagings are dropped. In a
congestion situation it is more important to get the CS rather than PS
pagings through.

BS Power Control is not allowed on the BCCH/CCCH carrier, unless
the BTS is operating in the BCCH carrier power reduction mode.
Allow constrained BS power reduction (up to 6 dB) on active logical
channels iff BCCH carrier power reduction mode is enabled.

The BCCH carrier (sometimes called C0) of a BTS shall maintain
discontinuous Downlink transmission at full power in order to
stay 'visible' to the mobile stations. Because of that, early
versions of 3GPP TS 45.008 prohibited BS power reduction on C0.
However, in the recent 3GPP TS 45.008 there is a feature called
'BCCH carrier power reduction operation'. This is a special
mode of operation, where the variation of RF level for some
timeslots is relaxed for the purpose of energy saving.
In BCCH carrier power reduction operation, for timeslots on the
C0 carrier, except timeslots carrying BCCH/CCCH, the output power
may be lower than the output power used for timeslots carrying
BCCH/CCCH. In this case the maximum allowed difference in output
power actually transmitted by the BTS is 6 dB.
The power reduction operation can be controlled by the BSC by
sending BS POWER CONTROL on the A-bis/RSL with the Channel Number
IE set to 0x80 (RSL_CHAN_BCCH). This makes osmo-bts reduce the
transmission power on inactive timeslots of the BCCH carrier.
This is a non-standard, Osmocom specific extension, so indicate
support of this feature to the BSC in the feature vector. Also
add a VTY command to allow enabling/disabling the power reduction
locally. Add some signalling notes to the A-bis/RSL manual.
For more details, see 3GPP TS 45.008, section 7.1.

This new extension protocol is used to forward Osmocom PCUIF messages
BSC<->BTS<->PCU.
It will be sent re-using the IPA multiplex of the OML link between
BSC and BTS. BTS is responsible for forwarding the message over the unix
socket to the PCU.
PCUIF existing RX path needs to be reworked in order to accept
variable-size messages, in order to be able to transparently forward
messages without knowing about them (the new container message is
variable-length).

I introduced this regression in [1] during a massive refactoring.
Basically, I copy-pasted a chunk from trx_sched_ph_data_req(), but
forgot to change the union field. This broke voice calls, because
all TCH.req primitives would be enqueued to wrong timeslot.

The PDCH multiframe contains 48 data slots, 2 PTCCH slots, and
2 IDLE slots. The later two can be used for the interference
measurements, since the UEs shall not transmit on them.
bts_report_interf_meas() is called every 104 TDMA frames, what
corresponds to 2 PDCH multiframe periods. Report interference
levels on PDCH timeslots from this function.

This change implements general interference averaging logic for
the higher layers. In l1sap_info_time_ind(), where we receive
TDMA time updates from BTS model, call rsl_tx_rf_res() for each
transceiver according to the interval defined by the Intave
parameter received from the BSC. In rsl_tx_rf_res() perform
the actual averaging for each inactive logical channel, and
then send everything to the BSC over the A-bis/RSL.
The BTS model specific code needs to report the measurements
for each logical channel every 104 TDMA frames (SACCH period)
by calling gsm_lchan_interf_meas_push().

This function is called during the OML bootstrapping, and also
when a dynamic timeslot switches between PDCH and TCH/{F,H}.
In the later case, after switching from TCH/{F,H} to PDCH, some
lchans might still have the old type assigned.
Let's ensure that all logical channels are properly updated.

Using the normal arithmetic for TDMA frame numbers may result
in getting wrong values. Consider the following situation:
'info_time_ind->fn' is 0 (beginning of period)
'bts->gsm_time.fn' is 2715647 (end of period)
With these input values the following expression:
info_time_ind->fn - bts->gsm_time.fn
will be equal to:
0 - 2715647 or -2715647
In this case osmo-bts does not log an error, because:
if (-2715647 > 0) // is false
As a consequence, we do not increment number of RACH slots that
have passed by since the last time indication:
for (i = 0; i < -2715647; i++) // is false
This is why we introduced GSM_TDMA_FN_{SUB,SUM,DIFF,INC} API.

Starting from TRXDv2 [1], trx_if_send_burst() would keep batching
PDUs to the static buffer, unless it's called with br = NULL, so
we cannot dereference br in the logging statement.
Of course, we could also store TDMA frame number in a static
variable, but I don't think it's worth it just for logging.
