Neels Hofmeyr a4d7a76816 do not force encryption on UTRAN
Remove the conditions that always enable encryption on UTRAN.

We so far lack an explicit configuration for UTRAN encryption, and this patch
does not add any either. Instead, whether UTRAN encryption is enabled is simply
triggered on whether GERAN has A5 encryption enabled (A5/n with n > 0). Though
GERAN and UTRAN encryption are not technically related at all, this makes UTRAN
behave like GERAN for now, until we implement a proper separate configuration
for UTRAN encryption.

Adjust the msc_vlr_test_* configuration by setting the net->a5_encryption_mask
such that the expected output remains unchanged. A subsequent patch
(I54227f1f08c38c0bf69b9c48924669c4829b04b9) will add more tests, particularly
cases of UTRAN without encryption.

Adjust manual and vty doc.

About OsmoMSC
=============

OsmoMSC originated from the OpenBSC project, which started as a minimalistic
all-in-one implementation of the GSM Network. In 2017, OpenBSC had reached
maturity and diversity (including M3UA SIGTRAN and 3G support in the form of
IuCS and IuPS interfaces) that naturally lead to a separation of the all-in-one
approach to fully independent separate programs as in typical GSM networks.

OsmoMSC was one of the parts split off from the old openbsc.git. Before, it was
the libmsc part of the old OsmoNITB. Since a true A interface and IuCS for 3G
support is available, OsmoMSC exists only as a separate standalone entity.

OsmoMSC exposes
- GSUP towards OsmoHLR (or a MAP proxy);
- A over IP towards a BSC (e.g. OsmoBSC);
- IuCS towards an RNC or HNB-GW (e.g. OsmoHNBGW) for 3G voice;
- MNCC (Mobile Network Call Control derived from GSM TS 04.07);
- SMPP 3.4 (Short Message Peer-to-Peer);
- The Osmocom typical telnet VTY and CTRL interfaces.
