ASN1C encoding/decoding can get really verbose. Furthermore, it should
only be enabled under really specific conditions, so it makes sense to
have it under its own category.

Previous naming is misleading, as it seems to indicate the function is
used to generate any kind of message, which is wrong.

Move code from message_handling containing both code for generic
cbc_message and specific cbsp_message into thers files. The former are
moved to cbc_message.c and the later to cbsp_msg.c, similar to what's
already done for SBc-AP messages.

This patch adds support to set up a CBSP link so that osmo-cbc connects
as a TCP client to the BSC, which runs as a TCP server.
Similary, support to set up a SBc-AP link so that osmo-cbc connects
as a SCTP client to the MME, which runs as SCTP server.
A new "mode (client|server|disabled)" VTY command is added to use one
mother or the other, and also to disable the link and hence the peer
until it is set again. This is useful if the peer is under manintenance
for instance.
client sockets are created automatically when the "peer" vty node is
exited if the link is not yet created, hence creating it at startup or
if moved back from "disabled" mode. If client socket dies, it will
keep attempting reconnect every 5 seconds.

This will be needed when we add client support, since clients will
require the mgr structs to be available during VTY parsing.

This way it's clear and we have in one place all the related code that
neds to be run at a given time.t

Delay allocating the structures until really needed.
First do checks agains the opened connection, and if an issue is
detected simply close the fd.
Next, fetch or allocate the related peer.
Finally, create the link from the fd.
This makes it easier to add early extra checks later when peers will
contain info on link_mode (client|server|disabled) later on.

* link -> srv_link to avoid confusing with cbsp/sbcap links
* clients -> links, since it holds links, which in the future will be
both TCP/SCTP clients and servers.

Rename osmo_*_cbc -> cbc_*_mgr:
Now they only hold TCP/SCTP server related conns, but will also hold
TCP/SCTP client conns in the near future.
Rename osmo_cbc_*_client -> cbc_*_link:
The term "client" is confusing, since it doesn't exist in CBSP/SBcAP,
and will later support connecting to server at TCP/SCTP level.
Let's use "link" instead, similar to what's used in osmo-bsc which
already supports both TCP client and server modes.

Let's create missing header files and move stuff around to have a clear
view of who implements what.

This patch makes use of the newly introduced sbcap library, and
introduces new code (and extends existing one) to handle all the aspects
of MME peers talking SBc-AP and its underlaying SCTP connection.
This commit doesn't aim to implement all the SBc-AP features, but to
implement a minimal subset of features already available for CBSP in
osmo-cbc, in order to have similar support level for both 2G and 4G
networks.

This commit adds initial support to encode/decode SBc-AP messages in the
form of a library, under src/sbcap/ (includes in
include/osmocom/sbcap/).
asn1c is used to generate all suport code and structures for ASN.1 APER
encoding/decoding, based on asn files obtained from 3GPP TS 29.168 and
stored under src/sbcap/asn1/.
Currently, mainstream asn1c doesn't yet support ASN.1 APER
encoding/decoding, hence mouse07410 's fork is used [1]. Furthermore,
several encdoing/decoding bugs where found during the process and fixed,
which means asn1.c git >= 30219de2d3da888b4f1eea0dd79f2a505000401a must
be used to generate proper code.
A new "make -C src/ gen" target is added which can be used to regenerate
all C code from the available ASN.1 files in src/sbcap/asn1/*.asn (after
properly setting configure.ac ASN_* variables if needed).
