It may happen after the A-bis connection recovery that the RF RESource
INDication message gets sent too early, while some timeslots are not
yet configured. This confuses the BSC and provokes error messages.

Starting from [1], interference levels on PDCH timeslots are also
reported over the A-bis/RSL. They may be useful for the BSC to
determine whether dynamic PDCH timeslots might be better used for
new circuit switched connections, or whether alternative PDCH slots
should be allocated for interference reasons.

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.

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).

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.

The TSC (Training Sequence Code) value in 'struct gsm_bts_trx_ts'
is always initialized in oml_rx_set_chan_attr() during the OML
bootstrapping, so there is no need for gsm_ts_tsc() - remove it.
Store the initial TSC value in 'struct gsm_bts_trx_ts', so we can
apply a different TSC value during the RSL CHANnel ACTIVation.
Store the Training Sequence Code/Set in 'struct trx_dl_burst_req'.
These values are indicated to the transceiver (TRXDv2 PDUs, 'MTS'

The PCUIF is a 'brilliant' protocol: some fields are expected to
be in the network byte order, some in the host order. The NSVC
remote address and local/remote ports is a good example:
- byte order of the address must be the network order, and
- byte order of the ports must be the host order.

Avoid announcing to PCU as available a dyn TS not yet fully
configured in the phy. Otherwise when we receive the Chan Activation
over the PCU sock while pchan_is still is not PDCH, and we fail to fully
activate the channel at that time.
See previous commit description for more information on the issue.
We still want to check for pchan_want because we actually want to stop
announcing the TS when it is in progress of being changed to TCH. This
configuration change is continued/finished once we receive the resulting
Release from PCU.

Something is wrong currently with dynamic TS and PDCH activation.
Apparently there's a race condition between activation in BTS lower
layers (example in TRXC) and against PCU.
Currently, when a GSM_PCHAN_TCH_F_TCH_H_PDCH is configured, we set
ts->dyn.pchan_want = GSM_PCHAN_PDCH and submit the async activation
through lower layers (CMD SETSLOT), and once the lower layer acks it we
set ts->dyn.pchan_is = pchan_want (when receiving RSP SETSLOT). However,
we seem to be advertising available TS to PCU based on pchan_want,
instead of pchan_is, which means we advertise channels not yet fully
configured. As a result, we may receive a Channel Act coming from PCU
for a given TS for which we didn't receive confirmation from upper
layers, meaning pchan_is is still GSM_PCHAN_NONE. This is by no means
expected in following code, so let's avoid going further over it.
Actual issue will be fixed in follow-up patch.

Since there can be multiple PDCH channels configured on different
timeslots, different TRXes, and BTSes, the PTCCH/U handling code
in OsmoPCU needs to know the exact origin of a given RACH.ind.
Otherwise, it is not known which subscriber originated a given
PTCCH/U indication, and hence it is impossible to send PTCCH/D
Timing Advance notification properly.
Fortunately, we can extend the RACH.ind message without even
bumping the protocol version, because every single PDU has a
fixed size defined by the largest message - INFO.ind. In case
if the actual message payload is smaller, the rest is filled
with a constant padding byte (0x00).
Older versions of OsmoPCU will consider the new fields as padding,
while the messages from older OsmoBTS versions will always have
both fields set to 0x00. Since C0/TS0 cannot be configured to
PDCH, this can be easily detected on the other end.

According to 3GPP TS 45.010, section 5.6.2, for packet-switched
channels the BTS shall monitor the delay of the Access Bursts
sent by the MS on PTCCH and respond with timing advance values
for all MS performing the procedure on that PDCH.
According to 3GPP TS 45.002, section 3.3.4.2, PTCCH (Packet Timing
advance control channel) is a packet dedicated channel, that is
used for continuous Timing Advance control (mentioned above).
There are two sub-types of that logical channel:
- PTCCH/U (Uplink): used to transmit random Access Bursts
to allow estimation of the Timing Advance for one MS in
packet transfer mode.
- PTCCH/D (Downlink): used by the network to transmit
Timing Advance updates for several MS.
As per 3GPP TS 45.003, section 5.2, the coding scheme used for
PTCCH/U is the same as for PRACH as specified in subclause 5.3,
while the coding scheme used for PTCCH/D is the same as for
CS-1 as specified in subclause 5.1.1.
The way we used to handle both PTCCH/U and PTCCH/D is absolutely
wrong - they have nothing to do with xCCH coding. Instead, we
need to use tx_pdtch_fn() for Downlink and rx_rach_fn() for Uplink.
In l1sap_ph_rach_ind() we need to check if an Access Burst was
received on PTCCH/U and forward it to OsmoPCU with proper SAPI
value (PCU_IF_SAPI_PTCCH). To be able to specify a SAPI, a new
parameter is introduced to pcu_tx_rach_ind().

All MS/UE must be notified of ETWS Primary Notifiations.
Depending on their state, the notification goes different paths:
* CS dedicated mode: BSC sends it as L3 message over LAPDm / DCCH
* CS/PS idle mode: BTS sends paging messages on PCH
* PS TBF active: PCU send Packet Application Info
This enables the last of the three methods by passing any
ETWS Primary Notifications received over RSL via the PCU socket into
the PCU.

Convert the cell identity to LE when sending it to the PCU via unix
socket, just like we do it with the location area code.
In the Osmocom stack, the CellID is configured in OsmoBSC, sent as BE
via RSL to OsmoBTS, then with a socket to OsmoPCU (where OsmoPCU expects
it to be LE in a LE system). OsmoBTS was always sending the CellID as
BE to OsmoPCU. In March 2018, a regression in OsmoPCU [1] caused an
endianness swap in the CellID on LE systems, resulting by chance in the
correct, LE encoded, CellID as it should have been sent from OsmoBSC
(for LE systems). This regression was fixed in March 2019 [2].
I've verified this fix with a TTCN3 test [3].
