3GPP TS 45.008, section 8.3 defines active TDMA frame subsets for
TCH channels, which shall always be transmitted even during the
silence periods in DTX mode of operation. Each frame number
listed in this section corresponds to a single burst.
The Uplink measurements always contain TDMA FN of the *first* burst
of a block, so it does not make sense to match the given FN against
all FNs in the respective subset. Instead, we should match only
specific FNs in accordance with the block mapping rules defined in
3GPP TS 45.002, section 7, table 1.
In the active subset for TCH/F there is only one *complete* block
starting at FN=52. Incomplete blocks {52, 53, 54, 55} and {56, 57,
58, 59} contain only 50% of the useful bits (partial SID) and thus
~50% BER, so we don't treat them as SUB.
In the active subsets for TCH/H there are two *complete* blocks
for each sub-slot. Their respective first FNs can be efficiently
defined in a lookup table (see ts45008_dtx_tchh_fn_map[]). Note
that we can use a single lookup table for both sub-slots of TCH/H
because their TDMA FNs do not overlap.
This patch fixes unexpected SUB-RxQual values > 0 on TCH channels
with DTXu enabled and other than AMR (HR, FR, EFR) codec in use.

SACCH detection can be simplified by checking the RSL Link ID in
process_l1sap_meas_data(). This eliminates the need to lookup
the multiframe position by calling trx_sched_is_sacch_fn(), which
definitely takes more CPU time than just L1SAP_IS_LINK_SACCH().
Calling trx_sched_is_sacch_fn() is still required for BTS models
reporting the measurements via PRIM_MPH_INFO (legacy way),
separately from the related Uplink blocks.
This patch can be summarized as follows:
* detect SACCH and set .is_sub=1 in process_l1sap_meas_data();
** for PRIM_MPH_INFO use trx_sched_is_sacch_fn();
** for PRIM_PH_DATA use L1SAP_IS_LINK_SACCH();
* do not call trx_sched_is_sacch_fn() from ts45008_83_is_sub();
* modify the unit test - test_ts45008_83_is_sub_single();
** remove test_ts45008_83_is_sub_is_sacch().

Attempting to detect missing Uplink frames in the *Downlink* path
is an ugly hack, that was needed before we had proper per-lchan
detection of missing bursts and NOPE indications in TRXDv1.
* [1] per-lchan detection of missing bursts was fixed in Aug 2018.
* [2] TRXDv1 support was introduced in Jul 2019.
Today is 2022 and it makes no sense to keep this hack. Even if
the transceiver does not support TRXDv1, per-lchan detection
will compensate the missing Uplink bursts.

OsmoBTS has CCN (NACC, Network Assisted Cell Change). With OsmoBSC

OsmoBTS.

Currently (without this patch) if tch_dl_dequeue() yields nothing we're
scheduling dummy FACCH/H *regardless* if it's permitted to start at the
given TDMA FN or not. This may result in misaligned FACCH transmission,
so the MS will not able to decode anything and will report BER>0.
With this patch applied we schedule FACCH/H if it's allowed to start
at the current TDMA FN; otherwise send half-filled bursts with even
numbered bits contaning 232 encoded bits of the previous L2 frame
and 232 odd numbered bits all set to 0.
This patch does not guard against sporadic gaps in the Downlink TCH
queue. However when tch_dl_dequeue() constantly yields nothing, e.g.
when we end up with a codec mismatch, then this additional check saves
us from starting misaligned FACCH/H transmission. If we start at a wrong
TDMA offset, then all subsequent FACCH frames will be scheduled at wrong
offsets and thus none of them will be decoded by the MS.

If set, chan_state->dl_ongoing_facch indicates that we're sending
the 2 (out of 6) middle bursts of FACCH/H. In this case there is
no room for encoding an additional frame, because both even and
odd numbered bits are occupied by a previously encoded FACCH/H.
Right after calling tch_dl_dequeue():
* do not check the dequeued message against NULL,
* do not compare the message length to GSM_MACBLOCK_LEN,
* immediately free() it and jump to the sending part.

Unlike SACCH, FACCH has no dedicated slots on the multiframe layout.
It's multiplexed together with TCH (speech or data) frames basically
by replacing (stealing) them. This is common for both TCH/F and
TCH/H, with the only difference that FACCH/H steals two TCH frames
(not just one) due to a longer interleaving period.
Let's implement the multiplexing in the common function, which is
used to dequeue to be transmitted frames - this slightly reduces
code duplication. Use a new name, so that it's clear what it does.

3GPP TS 48.058 defines the MultiRate configuration IE as optional,
and states that it's "included if the Channel Mode indicates that a
multi-rate codec is used". If I understand this correctly, it may
be omitted even if a multi-rate codec is requested. Otherwise it
would have been defined as a conditional IE.
For now let's print a warnig if this IE was expected, but missing.
We may need to apply some hard-coded defaults in this case.
If this IE is present, but the Channel Mode indicates a codec other
than AMR, let's send NACK with cause=RSL_ERR_OPT_IE_ERROR, assuming
that the CHAN ACT/MODIFY message is malformed.

Unlike TCH/F, TCH/H imposes some additional requirements on the FACCH
transmission, so that a signalling block can be transmitted only at
specific TDMA frame numbers defined in 3GPP TS 45.002, table 1.
This is why in rts_tchh_fn() we need to check the given TDMA frame
number and tell rts_tch_common() whether FACCH/H is permitted or
not. The check is based on a magic formula, which I find a bit
hard to read and understand. Let's better use a lookup table.
