Vadim Yanitskiy c7de62cc53 libmsc/gsm_04_11.c: introduce and use gsm411_assign_sm_rp_mr()
Initially, it was assumed that if there is no active RAN connection,
we can just start counting from 0x00, as there are no other SMS
related transactions, and transaction itself is allocated using
talloc_zero(). Until now it was looking good, but...

As soon as we establish RAN connection with subscriber, we already
have a transaction with SM-RP-MR 0x00, but conn->next_rp_ref also
remains 0x00 - it isn't being increased!

It means that we can face a SM-RP-MR conflict (or collision) if
another MT SMS would arrive to the MSC (from SMSC over GSUP)
when this transaction is still active, i.e. the first SMS is
still being sent, because conn->next_rp_ref++ would
return 0x00 again.

Moreover, there might be already a MO SMS transaction, and using
the conn->next_rp_ref counter wouldn't prevent us from having
duplicate SM-RP-MR value.

Let's get rid of this per-connection counter, and introduce a
function instead, that would iterate over existing transactions
and look for an unused SM-RP-MR value.

This change makes the following test cases pass:

  - TC_gsup_mt_sms_rp_mr,
  - TC_gsup_mo_mt_sms_rp_mr.

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.
