Replace locally defined enum ran_type with libosmocore's new enum
osmo_rat_type, and value_string ran_type_names with osmo_rat_type_names.
The string representations change, which has cosmetic effects on the test suite
expectations.

Always use LAC which is part of Cell Global ID otherwise we might end up
in a situation where separately stored LAC differs.
Both are described in 3GPP TS 23.008 $2.4 as temporary subscriber data
to be stored in VLR. Both are defined in 3GPP TS 23.003. The LAC is part
of LAI which is part of CGI so there should be no case when those values
differ for a given subscriber.

The function msc_paging_request() is only called from within
gsm_subscriber.c but never from outside. Lets make it static.

For hysterical raisins, there are some header files that contain few
declarations, and where the name doesn't reflect the content. Combine them to
new msc_common.h:
- common.h
- common_cs.h
- osmo_msc.h

In preparation for inter-BSC and inter-MSC handover, we need to separate the
subscriber management logic from the actual RAN connections. What better time
to finally rename gsm_subscriber_connection.
* Name choice:
In 2G, this is a connection to the BSS, but even though 3GPP TS commonly talk
of "BSS-A" and "BSS-B" when explaining handover, it's not good to call it
"bss_conn": in 3G a BSS is called RNS, IIUC.
The overall term for 2G (GERAN) and 3G (UTRAN) is RAN: Radio Access Network.
* Rationale:
A subscriber in the MSC so far has only one RAN connection, but e.g. for
inter-BSC handover, a second one needs to be created to handover to. Most of
the items in the former gsm_subscriber_connection are actually related to the
RAN, with only a few MM and RTP related items. So, as a first step, just rename
it to ran_conn, to cosmetically prepare for moving the not strictly RAN related
items away later.
Also:
- Rename some functions from msc_subscr_conn_* to ran_conn_*
- Rename "Subscr_Conn" FSM instance name to "RAN_conn"
- Rename SUBSCR_CONN_* to RAN_CONN_*

osmo-msc still had large amounts of dead code that came along from
openbsc.git. This commit removes a lot of it, mostly stuff relevant
only to the BSC side of things (or even GPRS).

It's not clear cut which code is responsible for canceling pending requests,
since the requests list is kept in vlr_subscr, but sending out Paging does
certainly not belong in the VLR. Place the requests cleanup in gsm_04_08.c.
Add to test_ms_timeout_paging() in msc_vlr_test_ms_timeout.c to verify that a
pending paging is canceled on IMSI Detach.

Currently, if there is no reply from the BSS / RNC, a subscriber will remain as
"already paged" forever, and is never going to be paged again. Even on IMSI
Detach, the pending request will keep a ref count on the vlr_subscr.
Add a paging timeout, as gsm_network->paging_timeout and in the VTY on the
'msc' node as 'paging timeout (default|<1-65535>'. (There is a 'network' /
'T3113' in OsmoBSC, but to not confuse the two, give this a different name.)
Add test_ms_timeout_paging() test to verify the timeout works.
I hit this while testing Paging across multiple hNodeB, when a UE lost
connection to the hNodeB. I noticed that no matter how long I wait, no Paging
is sent out anymore, and found this embarrassing issue. Good grief...

Remove libiu here, use the functions from libosmo-ranap instead, by applying
the ranap_ / RANAP_ prefix.

To be able to run the msc_vlr tests for RAN_UTRAN_IU without Iu client headers
available, add iu_dummy.h, containing mere function signatures that match
iu_dummy.c and a mostly empty struct ranap_ue_conn_ctx.
Make sure we can build with and without --enable-iu: include osmo-iuh headers
only with --enable-iu.

This was originally a long series of commits converging to the final result
seen in this patch. It does not make much sense to review the smaller steps'
trial and error, we need to review this entire change as a whole.
Implement AoIP in osmo-msc and osmo-bsc.
Change over to the new libosmo-sigtran API with support for proper
SCCP/M3UA/SCTP stacking, as mandated by 3GPP specifications for the IuCS and
IuPS interfaces.
From here on, a separate osmo-stp process is required for SCCP routing between
OsmoBSC / OsmoHNBGW <-> OsmoMSC / OsmoSGSN
jenkins.sh: build from libosmo-sccp and osmo-iuh master branches now for new
M3UA SIGTRAN.

Use new msc_tx_dtap() instead of gsm0808_submit_dtap()

Disable large parts of the code that depend on BSC presence. The code sections
disabled by #if BEFORE_MSCSPLIT shall be modified or dropped in the course of
adding the A-interface.
Don't set msg->lchan nor msg->dst.
Don't use lchan in libmsc.
Decouple lac from bts.
Prepare entry/exit point for MSC -> BSC and MSC -> RNC communication:
Add msc_ifaces.[hc], a_iface.c, with a general msc_tx_dtap() to redirect to
different interfaces depending on the actual subscriber connection.
While iu_tx() is going to be functional fairly soon, the a_tx() is going to be
just a dummy for some time (see comment).
Add Iu specific fields in gsm_subscriber_connection: the UE connection pointer
and an indicator for the Integrity Protection status on Iu (to be fully
implemented in later commits).
Add lac member to gsm_subscriber_connection, to allow decoupling from
bts->location_area_code. The conn->lac will actually be set in iu.c in an
upcoming commit ("add iucs.[hc]").
move to libcommon-cs: gsm48_extract_mi(), gsm48_paging_extract_mi().
libmsc: duplicate gsm0808 / gsm48 functions (towards BSC).
In osmo-nitb, libmsc would directly call the functions on the BSC level, not
always via the bsc_api. When separating libmsc from libbsc, some functions are
missing from the linkage.
Hence duplicate these functions to libmsc, add an msc_ prefix for clarity, also
add a _tx to gsm0808_cipher_mode():
* add msc_gsm0808_tx_cipher_mode() (dummy/stub)
* add msc_gsm48_tx_mm_serv_ack()
* add msc_gsm48_tx_mm_serv_rej()
Call these from libmsc instead of
* gsm0808_cipher_mode()
* gsm48_tx_mm_serv_ack()
* gsm48_tx_mm_serv_rej()
Also add a comment related to msc_gsm0808_tx_cipher_mode() in two places.
Remove internal RTP streaming code; OsmoNITB supported that, but for OsmoMSC,
this will be done with an external MGCP gateway.
Remove LCHAN_MODIFY from internal MNCC state machine.
Temporarily disable all paging to be able to link libmsc without libbsc.
Skip the paging part of channel_test because the paging is now disabled.
Employ fake paging shims in order for msc_vlr_tests to still work.
msc_compl_l3(): publish in .h, tweak return value. Use new libmsc enum values
for return val, to avoid dependency on libbsc headers. Make callable from
other scopes: publish in osmo_msc.h and remove 'static' in osmo_msc.c
add gsm_encr to subscr_conn
move subscr_request to gsm_subscriber.h
subscr_request_channel() -> subscr_request_conn()
move to libmsc: osmo_stats_vty_add_cmds()
gsm_04_08: remove apply_codec_restrictions()
gsm0408_test: use NULL for root ctx
move to libbsc: gsm_bts_neighbor()
move to libbsc: lchan_next_meas_rep()
move vty config for t3212 to network level (periodic lu)
remove unneccessary linking from some tests
remove handle_abisip_signal()
abis_rsl.c: don't use libvlr from libbsc
gsm_subscriber_connection: put the LAC here, so that it is available without
accessing conn->bts. In bsc_api.c, place this lac in conn for the sake of
transition: Iu and A will use this new field to pass the LAC around, but in a
completely separate OsmoBSC this is not actually needed. It can be removed
again from osmo-bsc.git when the time has come.
Siemens MRPCI: completely drop sending the MRPCI messages for now, they shall
be added in osmo-bsc once the A-Interface code has settled. See OS#2389.

Original libvlr code is by Harald Welte <laforge@gnumonks.org>,
polished and tweaked by Neels Hofmeyr <nhofmeyr@sysmocom.de>.
This is a long series of trial-and-error development collapsed in one patch.
This may be split in smaller commits if reviewers prefer that. If we can keep
it as one, we have saved ourselves the additional separation work.
SMS:
The SQL based lookup of SMS for attached subscribers no longer works since the
SQL database no longer has the subscriber data. Replace with a round-robin on
the SMS recipient MSISDNs paired with a VLR subscriber RAM lookup whether the
subscriber is currently attached.
If there are many SMS for not-attached subscribers in the SMS database, this
will become inefficient: a DB hit returns a pending SMS, the RAM lookup will
reveal that the subscriber is not attached, after which the DB is hit for the
next SMS. It would become more efficient e.g. by having an MSISDN based hash
list for the VLR subscribers and by marking non-attached SMS recipients in the
SMS database so that they can be excluded with the SQL query already.
There is a sanity limit to do at most 100 db hits per attempt to find a pending
SMS. So if there are more than 100 stored SMS waiting for their recipients to
actually attach to the MSC, it may take more than one SMS queue trigger to
deliver SMS for subscribers that are actually attached.
This is not very beautiful, but is merely intended to carry us over to a time
when we have a proper separate SMSC entity.
Introduce gsm_subscriber_connection ref-counting in libmsc.
Remove/Disable VTY and CTRL commands to create subscribers, which is now a task
of the OsmoHLR. Adjust the python tests accordingly.
Remove VTY cmd subscriber-keep-in-ram.
Use OSMO_GSUP_PORT = 4222 instead of 2222. See
I4222e21686c823985be8ff1f16b1182be8ad6175.
So far use the LAC from conn->bts, will be replaced by conn->lac in
Id3705236350d5f69e447046b0a764bbabc3d493c.
