This should provide a quick way to check if the system is frequently
overloaded over time and hence downlink FNs are scheduled later than
expected.

The nominal transmit power is still only configurable manually from
osmo-bts-trx VTY interface. Support to retrieve the nominal power
from osmo-trx will come later.

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.

EGPRS support, in particular MCS channel coding, was introduced
to osmo-bts-trx years ago, but we still report that it's not
supported. Let's stop confusing BSC, and set this feature too.

This value will be soon acquired automatically by osmo-bts-trx by asking
over TRXC to new versions of osmo-trx which is the nominal tx power for a given trx.
However, to still be able to work correctly against older versions of
osmo-trx or other TRX implementation (older or current) not supporting
this new TRX comamnd, let's allow the user to force a given value
through VTY for Tx power to work correctly.

The MPH INFO MEAS IND indication, which contains the uplink measurement
data is sent in parallel to the PH DATA and TCH indications as a
separate indications. This makes the overall uplink measurement data
processing unnecessarly complex. So lets put the data that is relevant
for measurement into the PH DATA and TCH indications directly.
This change only affects osmo-bts-trx at the moment. In order to keep
the upper layers (l1sap.c) compatible we add an autodection to switch
between separate measurement indications and included measurement data.

The timing advance controller that is implemented in loops.c of
osmo-bts-trx only works for osmo-bts-trx and not for any of the phy
based bts. Lets move the timing advance controller into the common part
and make it available for every bts. Also lets add a unit-test.

Let's drop it instead of having code duplication from common code in a
lower layer, and maintain only the one in l1sap for all BTS models.
As a result, osmo-bts-trx loses feature BTS_FEAT_MS_PWR_CTRL_DSP and
will only be able to use "ms-power-control osmo" in VTY, which will be
enabled by default (meaning: change of behavior, now MS Power Control is
enabled by default in osmo-bts-trx and can only by disabled by BSC).
Old bts-trx specific VTY command "(no) osmotrx ms-power-loop" is marked
as deprecated but still working for more usual case (1 TRX configured)
to avoid breaking backward compatibility.
TA low level loop is still kept in loops.c and will be moved to l1sap at
some point too.

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.

This command allows setting a maximum TRXD format version to negotiate
with TRX. osmo-bts-trx will hence end up using that version if supported
by TRX, or a lower one otherwise (or fail if TRX doesn't support any of
them).
Since now the maximum version can be 0, avoid going through SETFORMAT
negotiation in that case, since 0 is the default version. This way we
keep backward compatibility with TRX implementations that exit upon
receival of unknown commands (such as SC5 current one).
The VTY command is located in the "phy" node instead of the "phy
instance" node because instances of same phy are expected to use same
host with same implementation, so TRXD version to use should be the same
for both.

The setup is only needed once, so no need to set it every time we want
to schedule it.
Furthermore, it will ease new code introduced in follow-up patches,
which will schedule this timer under some circumstances without need to
send a message at the same time (because re-try of a cmd after a delay
is wanted).
This commit adds an alloc function and an init function to keep
different parts of the code decoupled and avoid exposing more
implementation details between them (like exposing the trx_if timer).

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.

gsm_bts_role_bts was introduced at a time when we still shared
gsm_data_shared.[ch] between BSC and BTS, and where we then subsequently
needed a BTS-private structure. Since that sharing was abandoned quite
some time ago, we can merge gsm_bts_role_bts into gsm_bts and do away
with the bts/btsb dualism in a lot of the code.

osmo-bts has a table of pchan/channel mode combinations for every
bts. This table models the codec capabilitys of the BTS hardware.
However, having the speech codec apabilities modeled inside the
BTS feature list would be much more comfortable and since the
feature list is communicated back to the BSC we would get the
codec capabilities inside the BSC domain as well.
- remove the pchan/channel mode tables
- set speech codec variants for each BTS type
- fix bts_supports_cm so that it queries the feature list

When the BSC sends a MODE MODIFY request with an unsupported
codec, the BTS must respond with a negative acknowledge.
Currently the codec parameter is not checked at all, which may
lead into malfunction or crash of the BTS.
- Introduce a mechanism to check the codec/rate against a
table that is set up in the phy specific code.
- Add tables with supported codec/rate combinations for
octphy, sysmobts, and trx.

There are currently two ways to specify power reductions to be sent to
osmo-trx from osmo-bts-trx:
* osmotrx tx-attenuation oml
* osmotrx tx-attenuation <0-50>
None of them is enabled by default, which means if none of them is
specified in the config file of osmo-bts-trx, SETPOWER cmd won't be sent
to osmo-trx, which in turn won't turn on the transciever.
Let's enable osmo tx-attenuation oml by default and leave it up to the
bsc to decide which power reduction to use. If the user wants to
configure a specific tx-attentuation, it can still do so in exactly the
same way he used to do it.

pinst->u.osmotrx.hdl should be allocated before reading phy_instance parameters from config file and applying them.
So allocation of pinst->u.osmotrx.hdl should be moved from l1if_open function to bts_model_phy_instance_set_defaults function,
which is proper place for this allocation according to start-up procedure of osmo-bts.

Instead of limiting the number of TRX at VTY to the actual number of
supported TRX, VTY allows to configure any possible number of TRX. If a
TRX is configured, which is not supported by BTS model, an error message is
returned, which states that the given TRX is not supported.
