This adds compression of bitmap in PUAN. The compressed bitmap
is used only if the number of bits in the bitmap does not fit in
the message and there is a gain after compression.
The algorithm is part of libosmocore and so there is dependency
on the libosmocore for compilation.
The algorithm is tested on integration setup by forcing compression.

lack of regressions was verified by checking following command on
sysmoBTS: "./osmo-pcu -c osmo-pcu.cfg -r 1 -i 192.168.10.1" where
192.168.10.1 is the host which was running wireshark and netcat:
"nc -u -l 192.168.10.1 -p 4729" to accept gsmtap flow.
This adds EDGE support and at the same time is changing a lot of code
on GPRS support as well. Due my business decision of completing as much
as possible during the time we had the unit test coverage is not as
extensive as I had hoped for.
This is just the beginning. We do not support mixed GPRS/EDGE support
and have plenty of things to improve throughput.
Thanks to On-Waves for supporting a project with so many unknowns and
uncertainty and Jacob for leading the effort at sysmocom.
Currently the MCS schemes are not supported when the leak rate is
being computed. This leads to a lower value for the leak rate, thus
limiting the throughput to GPRS-like ranges.
Use the payload size reported by GprsCodingScheme instead.

Currently single BSN blocks of size 68 (a single unit from MCS-8)
are put into a MCS-6 block with padding according to TS 44.060
Annex J. Unfortunately, these packets are ignored by the E71. This
might be related to the currently incorrect usage of the puncturing
schemes and the RSB bit (the puncturing schemes are not updated and
the RBS flag is never set).
Avoid downgrading from MCS-8 to MCS-6 if there is no second block
available. Send the block twice instead.

Comparing the coding scheme properties doesn't seem to be strong
enough, since create_dl_acked_block(fn, ts, index, index2) sometimes
had to combine data units of different size this way.
Check the registered size of the BSN blocks instead, since these must
match if two blocks are to be combined in a single RLC data message
with MCS7-9.
It is not yet clear, what exactly goes wrong with the current
implementation, but this commit fixes the problem which trigger the
assertion in create_dl_acked_block.
Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
Currently only one BSN block is encoded in each RLC data message,
even if MSC7-9 are used, which transport two independant (except for a
max BSN delta of 512) BSN blocks. In that case, the same block is
just put twice into the same message.
The current create_dl_acked_block(fn, ts) method handles
block selection (resend, new BSN, dummy block, ...) and restart
handling in one method and is too complex to extend it accordingly.
Therefore this commit move the block selection/creation handling into
a new method (take_next_bsn) which delivers the next BSN along with a
hint, whether it may be combined with another block. In that case,
the function can be called a second time (this time with a valid
previous BSN, that's the one returned by the first call) to get the
second BSN. The real block generation method
create_dl_acked_block(fn, ts, index, index2) is then called with both
BSNs as indices (the second must be -1, if there is only one BSN).
Note that every BSN returned by take_next_bsn should be passed to
create_dl_acked_block to avoid state inconsistencies.
Sponsored-by: On-Waves ehf
Currently the method is hard-coded to support a single BSN only.
MCS-7 to MCS-9 encode 2 data blocks into a single RLC data message.

Note that this does not extend the parameter list accordingly and

never be sent in that case. On the other hand, the MS replaces a

Currently the values for WS and SNS are fixed to 64 (WS) and 128
(SNS) which are the only values that can be used with GPRS. On the
other hand, EGPRS requires an SNS of 2014 and a WS in the range of
64 to 1024.
This commit adds member variables and setters to both window
classes. By default, the GPRS values are being used.

Currently the gprs_rlc_dl_window and gprs_rlc_ul_window do not have
constructors, but need to get initialized explicitly.
This commit adds constructors to both classes and removes explicit
external initialization code.

Currently in some places uint8_t is being used to encode BSNs and
SSNs. This is inconsistent and (even worse) not enough for EPGRS
which uses an SNS of 2014.
This commit changes these to uint16_t.
