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.

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

Following previous rename of gsm_subscriber_connection:
Some functions and #defines are still called like "msc_conn" or just "msc_",
while they are clearly about a RAN conn.
To avoid confusion with the future separate concepts of MSC roles and a RAN
connection, rename all those to match the common "ran_conn" prefix.

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-hlr has recently (as of Change-Id
Iad227bb477d64da30dd6bfbbe1bd0c0a55be9474) a working shared library
implementation of libosmo-gsup-client.
We can remove the local implementation in osmo-msc and use the
system-installed shared library instead.

Since we don't process SS/USSD requests in OsmoMSC anymore, there
are some useless GSM 04.80 functions remained from the past.
In particular, this change does the following:
- removes both gsm0480_send_{ussd_response|return_error}
functions because they are not used anymore;
- changes symbol prefix from 'gsm0480_' to 'msc_', in order to
avoid possible conflicts with the libosmogsm's GSM 04.80 API;
- cleans up useless includes;

This change introduces some new rate counters for call-independent
SS/USSD connections. As OsmoMSC doesn't handle the messages itself,
and only responsible for dispatching messages between both
A and GSUP interfaces, the following is taken into account:
- MS-initiated and network-initiated requests to establish
a NC SS/USSD session (transaction) - "nc_ss:m{o|t}_requests";
- successfully established MS-initiated and network-initiated
SS/USSD sessions (transactions) - "nc_ss:m{o|t}_established".
Change-Id: I23c9475abc9951d82f3342fdc5aaa367836f7741
According to GSM TS 02.90, section 4.3, release of the connection
used for SS/USSD is normally the responsibility of the network.
But the user may also initiate connection release, e.g. by
pressing the 'red button'.

This change introduces a possibility to establish network-initiated
SS/USSD transactions with a subscriber in either IDLE, or DEDICATED
state. In the first case, a new transaction is established using
Paging procedure. If a subscriber already has an active connection,
a separate new transaction is established.

In order to be able to support external SS/USSD gateway, we should
not terminate the GSM 04.80 messages at OsmoMSC. Instead, we need
to follow the GSM TS 09.11 specification, and forward all messages
unhandled by OsmoMSC to OsmoHLR over GSUP protocol.
This change implements forwarding of MO SS/USSD messages. The
forwarding assumes transcoding between GSM 04.80 messages and
GSUP messages. The payload of Facility IE is carried 'as is'.
As a side-effect, this will disable the osmo-msc internal handler
implementing the "*#100#" for obtaining the subscribers own phone
number. In order to re-gain this functionality, you will need a
modern osmo-hlr (Change-Id I1d09fab810a6bb9ab02904de72dbc9e8a414f9f9)
and the following line in your osmo-hlr.cfg:
hlr
ussd route prefix *#100# internal own-msisdn

There is no need to pass a pointer to a ss_request struct when
calling the gsm0480_send_ussd_* functions, because they only
use both transaction ID and InvokeID from there, which may
be passed directly.
This change allows one to use this API without parsing the
whole GSM 04.80 message, or when parsing is failed. Moreover,
if InvokeID is not available, one can pass any incorrect,
(e.g. negative) value, so the universal NULL tag will be used.
Finally, setting a TI flag is also up to the caller.
Change-Id: I13d5abbfdcf8238ebaf0566c420f09cd9255b648
Previously it was intended that we are always parsing the
whole GSM 04.80 message, including the Invoke ID. But
there is no need to do that, since we are going to
forward the Facility IE payload to HLR in near future.
Moreover, there was a mistake (my bad) - transaction is
being established before parsing of the message, so the
req structure remains uninitialized until that.
Let's just send RELEASE COMPLETE message without any Cause or
Facility IEs. We could indicate a problem using the first one,
but according to GSM TS 04.80, the Cause IE only makes sense
when "its functional handling is specified in the service
description or GSM TS 09.11".

During a long time, we had both file and symbol names, actually
related to Supplementary Services, with the 'ussd' abbreviation.
This is not absolutely wrong, but isn't correct at the same time.
USSD is a kind of Supplementary Services, this is only a part
of them. There are also 'structured' Supplementary Services,
which can be call related or call independent.
The "Signalling interworking for supplementary services" is
defined by GSM TS 09.11, and this is exactly what MSC should
implement. Let's use the specification number for naming, as
we do e.g. in the GSM 04.11 (SMS) implementation.
