All code in osmo-bts goes through APIs in libosmotrau (osmo_ortp.h),
hence direct dependency is not needed. Fixes OBS warnings:
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if debian/osmo-bts-trx/usr/bin/osmo-bts-trx was not linked against libortp.so.9 (it uses none of the library's symbols)
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if debian/osmo-bts-virtual/usr/bin/osmo-bts-omldummy debian/osmo-bts-virtual/usr/bin/osmo-bts-virtual were not linked against libortp.so.9 (they use none of the library's symbols)

We saw in a recent prod setup a BSC with saturated channels. Further
investigation lead to a AGCH queue of 1000 (previous hard_limit)
messages, most of them being regular IMM ASSIGN (non REJ). Hence, we
also want to get rid of other messages in the AGCH queue (like regular
IMM ASSIGN).
Furthermore, In this scenario, sending IMM ASS REJ is as important as other
messages given than nowadays we support dynamic wait indicatior
(calculated based on chan load), which means if we reach the MS, we can
tell it to wait for a long time to reach us again, which is desirable.

In a prod setup, complete channel saturation at the bsc was detected,
and Immediate Assignments were not being answered by the MS once sent by
the BTS.
Further investigation showed that the BTS was all the time printing
messages like this:
"bts.c:540 AGCH: too many messages in queue, refusing message type 0x3f, length = 1001/10"
So it seems the AGCH queue was becoming incredibly full (1000, hard
limit triggered the log), while acgch_queue.max_length was set to 10.
As a result, most probably the Immediate Assignments being sent to the
MS are super old in time, and the MS doesn't known about them anymore
once they are receivied, so no answer is sent back.
Let's try to avoid that by decreasing the hard limit so we never reach
that big queue_len scenario.
The number 100 is selected from data gatherered in agch_test.c which
prints a table of max_length values based on different setups. Some
values can reach around 80 messages, so let's use a slightly bigger hard
limit.

Completely drop bts_log_init(), call osmo_init_logging2() directly instead: all
callers of bts_log_init() passed NULL as category string, so all it ever did
was call osmo_init_logging(). The bts_log_info is already declared in the .h.
Here and there also define a proper talloc root context instead of using NULL.

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.

Rathert han have 11 direct members of gsm_bts_role_bts, group them
into a sub-struct as ew do for other parts like interference, laod, ...
Change-Id: Iefecf4b70c1b11c650913f2ae3783718ffb8a36c
* copy-paste gsm_data_shared.* from OpenBSC master
* remove corresponding configure check and option
* remove .deb dependency
Actual refactoring with removal of unnecessary structures/parts, moving
common OpenBSC/OsmoBSC parts into libraries etc. are left for further
patches.
Current patch will make coexistence with *BSC easier and will simplify
our build infrastructure.

we changed the gsm_bts_alloc() function signature to include
a second argument (the BTS number). This broke omso-bts, and this
commit is intended to make it build again.

This patch implements merging of IMMEDIATE ASSIGN REJECT messages as
suggested in GSM 08.58, 5.7. When a new IMM.ASS.REJ is to be appended
to the AGCH queue and the last message in that queue is of the same
type, the individual entries (up to 4 per message) of both messages
are extracted, combined and stored back. If there are less than 5
entries, all entries fit into the old message and the new one is
discarded. Otherwise, the old message will contain 4 entries and the
remaining ones are stored into the new one which is then appended to
the queue.

Currently, the AGCH queue length is not limited. This can lead to
large delays and network malfunction if there are many IMM.ASS.REJ
messages.
This patch adds two features:
- Don't accept msgs from the RSL layer when the queue is way too
full (safety measure, mainly if bts_ccch_copy_msg() is not being
called by the L1 layer, currently hard coded to 1000 messages)
- Selectively drop IMM.ASS.REJ from the queue output depending on the
queue length

This patch extends paging_gen_msg() by adding an output parameter
is_empty that is true, if only a paging message with dummy entries
has been placed into buffer. This feature is then used by
bts_ccch_copy_msg() to insert an AGCH message if is_empty is true.

The first test checks the AGCH may queue length computation.
The second test fills the queue by calling bts_agch_enqueue() with a
mix of IMM.ASS and IMM.ASS.REJ. Then it drains the queue by calling
bts_ccch_copy_msg(). After each of both steps, statistics are printed
out.
