There are some situations where it is useful to be able to change the
Radio Link Timeout at runtime, without restarting the BTS.
This adds a new (hidden) command for this:
"bts <0-255> radio-link-timeout (oml|infinite|<4-64>)"

It's more convenient to use one command to enable/disable sending
of all kinds of UL/DL messages at once, rather than specifying
all of them individually.
Adjust config_write_bts_single(), so it would not print unknown
GSMTAP SAPI entries if gsmtap_sapi_mask is set to UINT32_MAX.

This allows for instance ramping up from -10 dBm -> -4 dBm if NOMTXPOWER
of SDR is really low (below 0dBm) or because the max_power_red is >=
NOMTXPOWER.

According to 3GPP TS 08.58, section 9.3.4, BS Power IE indicates
the transmission power attenuation on a particular channel:
+--------------+---------+-----------------+
| Reserved (3) | FPC (1) | Power level (4) |
+--------------+---------+-----------------+
so let's change handling of this IE as follows:
- s/bs_power/bs_power_red/g, so it reflects 'reduction';
- store power attenuation value in dB, not in 2 db steps;
- get rid of ms_power_ctrl.bts_tx_pwr, it's always 0 anyway;
- fix rsl_tx_meas_res(): use lchan->bs_power_red;
- always check if FPC (Fast Power Control) flag is set;
- we don't support it, so reject messages containing it;
- fix rsl_rx_chan_activ(): properly apply the bitmask.

It was a very bad idea to mix "public" BTS features, that are
reported to the BSC via OML, and those features, that are used
locally (and exclusively) in osmo-bts.
Why? At least because we already have the BTS feature manipulation
API in libosmocore, that is used by osmo-bsc, but for some reason
not by osmo-bts. New features added to libosmocore would clash
with the existing "internal" ones like BTS_FEAT_MS_PWR_CTRL_DSP.
So what this change does can be described as follows:
- remove duplicate definition of the "public" features,
- use libosmocore's API for the "public" features,
- separate both "internal" and "public" features:
- the "public" features continue to live in bitvec,
- the "internal" features become flags,
- s/BTS_FEAT/BTS_INTERNAL_FLAG/g.

osmo-bts-trx used to have its own (low-level) MS Power Control loop,
but recently it has been ripped out. Since [1], the process fails to
start if the configuration file still contains 'ms-power-control dsp'.
Let's be more tolerant: override 'dsp' by 'osmo' and print a warning.

It indicates whether BTS model supports managing an MS Power Control
Loop over HW/DSP instead of using the software based osmocom algorithm
present in osmo-bts.
osmo-bts-trx own loop implementation is considered to be a "DSP/HW" one
since it acts on lower layers and interferes with osmocom algorithm
since it controls the same end variable "lchan->ms_power_ctrl.current",
this way we make sure both aren't enabled at the same time.
Old behavior in kept: if common upper-layer algo is not enabled
explicitly in VTY (ms-power-control osmo) and bts-trx specific lower
layer algo is neither enabled (osmotrx ms-power-loop <xyz>), then no
power control is done at all.

Make it clear that it contains the maximum MS power level (TS 05.05) and
not the one to be used. The one aimed at is in ms_power_ctrl.current.
Since it's used in related code, move it inside the ms_power_ctrl struct
too.

Thies field is used to store and retrieve whether MS power needs to be
calculated and updated by osmo-bts software or autonomously by lower
layers. Previous name was not clear
and may have been understood as indicating whether MS Power Control loop
is done or not in general, and the responsible for that is located under
lchan's ms_power_ctrl.fixed.

Since March 15th 2017, libosmocore API logging_vty_add_cmds() had its
parameter removed (c65c5b4ea075ef6cef11fff9442ae0b15c1d6af7). However,
definition in C file doesn't contain "(void)", which means number of
parameters is undefined and thus compiler doesn't complain. Let's remove
parameters from all callers before enforcing "(void)" on it.
API osmo_stats_vty_add_cmds never had a param list but has seem problem
(no "void"), so some users decided to pass a parameter to it.

The radio link quality is defined by C/I (Carrier-to-Interference
ratio), which is computed from the training sequence of each
received burst, by comparing the "ideal" training sequence with
the actual (received) one.
Link quality measurements are used by L1SAP to filter out "ghost"
Access Bursts, and by the link quality adaptation algorithms. One
can define minimum link quality values using the VTY interface.
On the VTY interface we expect integer C/I values in centiBels
(cB, 10e-2 B), while the internal structures are using float
values in deciBels (dB, 10e-1 B). Some PHYs (sysmo, octphy,
oc2g, and litecell15) expose C/I measurements in deciBels,
while on the L1SAP interface we finally send then in centiBels.
Let's avoid this confusion and stick to a single format, that
will be used by the internal logic of OsmoBTS - integer values
(int16_t) in centiBels. This will give us the range of:
-32768 .. 32767 centiBels, or
-3276.8 .. 3276.7 deciBels,
which is certainly sufficient.

Let's keep some statistics about the min/max/average frame number
advance that we're observing above L1SAP when comparing the time in the
PH-RTS.ind and the frame number we observe in PH-DATA.ind of data
that was received on the uplink.
The statistics are currently only shown in the VTY, but this is a
precursor to using them to correctly advance the LAPDm timers in a
follow-up patch.

(bts_trx_init) applied in VTY cmd "trx <0-254>", where TRX are allocated
since same commit, but doesn't initialize TRX0 for reasons explained in
first paragraph.
As a result, some parameters were not applied to TRX0, like
power ramping increment step, which prevented MS from finding the network in

No need to pass -t num_trx anymore to specify number of TRX to use. It
is calculated based on dynamic allocation from VTY config.
Using parameter -t is flagged as deprecated and is transformed into a
NOOP por backward compatibility.
As a result, TRX now are allocated after the BTS is allocated and
initial config (pre-VTY) is applied.
A new function bts_trx_init() is added, to set default config on each
TRX during allocation and before setting VTY config on it.
A new per BTS model function bts_model_trx_init() is added, to allow
per model specific default configuration of each TRX.

The current implementation does not allow the user to specify a port
range in which the BTS is allowed to allocate a local RTP port. Also
the ports the BTS picks do not match the policy described in RFC3550.
An RTP Port must be at an even port number and the matching RTCP
port must be at the following (odd) port number. The BTS currently
picks random port numbers for both.
- Add a VTY command to specify a port range in which the BTS may
assign local ports.
- Pick ports as described in RFC3550.

When decoding RACH bursts, we should use a BER threshold in order to
help distinguish 'ghost' RACH bursts from real RACH bursts.
The theoretical ideal threshold according to some papers is 7 out of 41
bits qhich aquals to Eb/N0 of 0 dB = 0.1707 (17.07%)
We add a new 'ber10k' parameter to the RACH indication l1sap primitive
(needs separate change for libosmocore), and then fill this value from
osmo-bts-{sysmo,lc15,trx,octphy}. The common part above L1SAP then
applies the threshold, which can be changed from vty using the
"max-ber10k-rach <0-10000>"
command available at the BTS node. The unit is BER in 1/10000, i.e. a
value of 100 equals 1% bit error rate.
