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.

Previous code relied on abort() switching sigaction to SIG_FDL +
retriggering SIGABRT in case the signal handler returns, which would
then generate the coredump + terminate the process.
However, if a SIGABRT is received from somewhere else (kill -SIGABRT),
then the process would print the talloc report and continue running,
which is not desired.

This will allow for configuration of some of the timers by the user,
and allow him to inspect current values being used.
It will be also useful for TTCN3 tests which may want to test some of
the timers without having to wait for lots of time.
Timers are splitted into 2 groups: BTS controlled ones and PCU controlled
ones. The BTS controlled ones are read-only by the user (hence no
"timer" VTY command is provided to change them).
TbfTest.err output changes due to timers being set up correctly as a
consequence of changes. Other application such as pcu_emu.cpp and
pcu_main.cpp had to previosuly set the initial values by hand (and did
so), but apparently TbfTest.c was missing that part, which is now fixed
for free.

parameter removed (c65c5b4ea075ef6cef11fff9442ae0b15c1d6af7). However,
definition in C file doesn't contain "(void)", which means number of
parameters is undefined and thus compiler doesn't complain. Let's remove
parameters from all callers before enforcing "(void)" on it.
API osmo_stats_vty_add_cmds never had a param list but has seem problem

The instance bssgp_nsi is a global instance to be used by all
NS related functions. Previous the PCU allocated and initialized
the bssgp_nsi instance when (re-)connecting and freeing on disconnect.
The problem of the implicit initialisation is gprs_ns_vty_init(bssgp_nsi).
All vty init functions must be called before the configuration is read,
otherwise a previous vty written configuration is invalid.
Furthermore the vty modifications to the `ns` object were lost when the PCU has to
reconnect to the SGSN.

Add method to explicitly cleanup BTS singleton similar to GprsMsStorage
class and use it from main(). The destructor becomes trivial wrapper
around cleanup() method.
This prevents annoying SIGABRT on exit of OsmoPCU caused by

Previously MAX_GPRS_CS was used for both EDGE and GPRS which means that

In libosmocore, we normally register a SIGHUP handler for log file

There is a duality of initialization: early_init() in bts.cpp wants to init
logging even before static instances get initialized. Make sure that
tall_pcu_ctx is initialized during early_init() as well. There is a build
context that does not seem to include bts.cpp (osmo-pcu-remote), so to be sure,
init tall_pcu_ctx as NULL and both in early_init() as well as pcu_main.cpp,
init both tall_pcu_ctx and logging if it is still NULL.

We have seen that UL MCS5- MCS9 link adaptation has not been implemented in current PCU implementation.
If the MS slowly moves far away from the BTS, the UL MCS will always stick at MCS9 no matter UL link quality values leading to poor data service experience.
The UL MCS is expected to adapt from MCS9 -> MCSx due to bad UL quality.
Below PCU traces indicate that UL MCS is quickly increasing to MCS9 (max MCS 9 was used in this test) and it never changes to other UL MCS due zero thresholds.

Make the gsmtap hostname const to avoid turning a constant into
a mutable character. We never tried to modify the string so the
warning didn't reveal a genuine issue.
pcu_main.cpp:49:28: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ [-Wwrite-strings]
static char *gsmtap_addr = "localhost"; // FIXME: use gengetopt's default value instead
This option allows user to use custom IP address instead of default "localhost".
Correspondingly gsmtap init moved from sysmoBTS-specific code up to "bts" struct
level. This way it can be easier reused by other implementations. The
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 window size is fixed to 64 even for EGPRS.
Support dynamic window sizes depending on the number of PDCH. The
WS can be set to b + f * N_PDCH. If the result is not valid according
to TS 44.060, Table 9.1.9.2.1, the value will be corrected to use the
next lower valid value (or 64).
The following VTY commands are added (config-pcu node):
window-size <0-1024> set base (b) value and leave f unchanged
window-size <0-1024> <0-256> set base (b) and factor (f)

This sets the maximum MCS encoding used for EGPRS RLC data blocks
in either direction.
The following VTY command are added to node config-pcu:
- mcs max <1-9> set maximum for both, uplink and downlink
- mcs max <1-9> <1-9> set maximum for downlink and uplink (in that
order)
- no mcs max do not limit
Note that using a value of 4 or below for each direction implies
that a GMSK-only TBF may be assumed, which for instance would allow
the use of the GPRS MS class instead of the possibly more restrictive
EGPRS MS class.
