The functions l1if_open_pdch and l1if_close_pdch have a misleading
naming since what they actually do is opening and closing the TRX since
they return and accept a context (obj) that is valid for a whole TRX.
This also explains why the other functions accept a timeslot as
parameter in addition to the context. Let's rename those functions so
that it is clear what they do.

This patch finally decouples TBF allocation from resource allocation.
This will allow in the future reserving resources without having to
require a TBF object to exist.

This is useful to track the lifecycle of MS objects. The RLCMAC cateogry
used so far in those log messages is too broad.

Make the caller hold a reference to the MS object just allocated, so
that it hs to explicitly unref it and, in turn, if no new references
were added during its use, trigger release of the MS object.
This is useful to avoid leaking MS object if it was allocated and then
no TBF is attached to it because allocation of TBF failed.

gprs_default_cb_ms_idle() is changed to have the same implementation as
previous bts_ms_idle_cb(), since that's the only one being used in
osmo-pcu code. It makes no sense to use different callback logic in unit
tests.
This is another step towards simplifying the code and getting rid of the
idle/active_cb().

That information is not required during allocation of the object, and
most times it is not known.
Defer setting it only to meaningul values in paths obtaining the
information from peers.

There is a function l1if_connect_pdch, but no complementary function
like we have it with l1if_open_pdch and l1if_close_pdch. The reason for
this is that the PHY implementations that rely on a femtocell DSP do not
need to disconnect the pdch explcitly. However, the planned support for
the E1 based Ercisson RBS CCU will require an explicit disconnect. So
lets add a function call for this.

First commit towards trying to have alloc algorithm as isolated as
possible from others parts of the code trying to avoid state changes on
data structures.
Change name also because the alloc_algo not only allocated TS, but TFIs
and USFs.

Remove the paragraph about writing to the Free Software Foundation's
mailing address. The FSF has changed addresses in the past, and may do
so again. In 2021 this is not useful, let's rather have a bit less
boilerplate at the start of source files.

Let's disable category here since we don't care about its formatting here.
In any case, every test relying on logging output validation should
always explicitly state the config to avoid issues in the future if
default values change.

This patch doesn't really tests whether osmo-pcu can work on a multi-bts
environment, but it prepares the data structures to be able to do so at
any later point in time.

Previous work on BTS class started to get stuff out of the C++ struct
into a C struct (BTS -> struct gprs_glcmac_bts) so that some parts of
it were accessible from C code. Doing so, however, ended up being messy
too, since all code needs to be switching from one object to another,
which actually refer to the same logical component.
Let's instead rejoin the structures and make sure the struct is
accessible and usable from both C and C++ code by rewriting all methods
to be C compatible and converting 3 allocated suboject as pointers.
This way BTS can internally still use those C++ objects while providing
a clean APi to both C and C++ code.

Currently the BTS object (and gprs_rlcmac_bts struct) are used to hold
both PCU global fields and BTS specific fields, all mangled together.
The BTS is even accessed in lots of places by means of a singleton.
This patch introduces a new struct gprs_pcu object aimed at holding all
global state, and several fields are already moved from BTS to it. The
new object can be accessed as global variable "the_pcu", reusing and
including an already exisitng "the_pcu" global variable only used for
bssgp related purposes so far.
This is only a first step towards having a complete split global pcu and
BTS, some fields are still kept in BTS and will be moved over follow-up
smaller patches in the future (since this patch is already quite big).
So far, the code still only supports one BTS, which can be accessed
using the_pcu->bts. In the future that field will be replaced with a
list, and the BTS singletons will be removed.
The cur_fn output changes in TbfTest are actually a side effect fix,
since the singleton main_bts() now points internally to the_pcu->bts,
hence the same we allocate and assign in the test. Beforehand, "the_bts"
was allocated in the stack while main_bts() still returned an unrelated
singleton BTS object instance.

As we integrate osmo-pcu more and more with libosmocore features, it
becomes really hard to use them since libosmocore relies heavily on C
specific compilation features, which are not available in old C++
compilers (such as designated initializers for complex types in FSMs).
GprsMs is right now a quite simple object since initial design of
osmo-pcu made it optional and most of the logic was placed and stored
duplicated in TBF objects. However, that's changing as we introduce more
features, with the GprsMS class getting more weight. Hence, let's move
it now to be a C struct in order to be able to easily use libosmocore
features there, such as FSMs.
Some helper classes which GprsMs uses are also mostly move to C since
they are mostly structs with methods, so there's no point in having
duplicated APIs for C++ and C for such simple cases.
For some more complex classes, like (ul_,dl_)tbf, C API bindings are
added where needed so that GprsMs can use functionalitites from that
class. Most of those APIs can be kept afterwards and drop the C++ ones
since they provide no benefit in general.

Do not use C++11 extended initializers to prevent the following error.
AppInfoTest.cpp:109:54: error: extended initializer lists only available with -std=c++11 or -std=gnu++11
pcu_prim.u.app_info_req = {0, 15, {0xff, 0x00, 0xff}};
I ran into this when modifying the gerrit build verification job to
build with docker (which still uses GCC-4.9).

Receive an Application Information Request from the BTS via PCU
interface. Construct a Packet Application Information message from it
(3GPP TS 44.060 11.2.47) and send it to all MS with active TBF.
The TTCN-3 test infrastructure to test this feature is not quite ready
yet, so I've added C unit tests instead.
