Use UL/DL TBFs instead of the base class wherever it is clear that the
code only deals with one kind of TBF.

encode_rbb() and write_packet_uplink_assignment are only called with UL
TBFs so change the function signature to reflect that.

The methods create_ul_ack(), rcv_data_block_acknowledged(),
maybe_schedule_uplink_acknack() are only used for UL TBFs so make them
methods of that class instead of the base class.

These functions are only used for DL TBFs so move them.
sched_select_downlink() in src/gprs_rlcmac_sched.cpp now needs to deal
with DL TBFs instead of the base class.

This method is only userul for DL TBFs so move it. As a result
gprs_rlcmac_pdch::rcv_control_ack needs to work with dl_tbfs.

llist_add is called on the TBF lists in tbf_alloc_ul/dl_tbf or in
rotate_in_list. All three places check the direction/add the new TBF to
the correct list so an ASSERT on entry is not needed.

The PODS struct has a back pointer to access the actual object.
llist_pods_for_each_entry traverses the list of struct llist_pods and
makes the entry available (through the back pointer).

We start to separate the UL and DL part of the TBF now as they
really behave differently. One works on RLCmac frames (plural)
and sends them, the other is just assembling one of them. The
code will become more clear now.
UL and DL tbfs are used in very separate parts and are not the same
thing so split the alloc function and use the UL/DL version throughout
the code.

Many functions only ever deal with or return a UL or a DL TBF.
Explicitly change the type to reflect which TBF is used where.

rcv_control_dl_ack_nack is only meaningful for dl tbf while
rcv_control_ack can be sent in response to a dl or ul tbf. So
rcv_control_ack still needs to check for ul and dl tbfs.

The current code tries to recover from dropped connections and resets the
pcu state so it can keep running. However, this never worked correctly
which is why the -e option is used. This option exits the pcu as soon as
the internal state needs to be reset.
This patch removes this option and makes this behaviour default.

The current code keeps a reference to all tbfs in the bts and another
reference in the pdch. This allows for the possibility of both lists to
go out of sync.
This patch removes the pdch-specific list of ul and dl tbfs and uses the
lists in the bts to lookup tbfs everywhere.
Performance for going through the global list is not an issue yet. We
can optimize this later and in a better way.

The current code would only ever assign one PDCH for the initial
assignment (from CCCH). Only if reuse_tbf is called the algorithm would
actually use multiple DL PDCHs if possible.
This patch introduced a tbf attribute upgrade_to_multislot that is set
if we have multiple PDCH configured, and support multislot assignment,
but can only assign a single PDCH (alloc_algorithm_b, parameter single
is set). In this case after the assignment completes (and the MS is
listening on a PDCH) we resend a DL assignment though the PACCH and this
time we can assign multiple timeslots.
The current code does not properly distinguish between DL assignments to
reuse a tbf (after it was put in state WAIT_RELEASE) and DL assignments
for an active tbf to change the allocation of the PDCH timeslots.
This patch introduces a new variable was_releasing which remembers if
trigger_dl_ass() was called with a tbf in state WAIT_RELEASE. In that
case we have to set the CONTROL_ACK field in the download assignment.
This should allow us to send DL assignments to change PDCH TS allocation
of a tbf before we enter FLOW state.
Counter j must be wrapped to prevent beeing negative, when it is
initialized. This wrapping happens, if TS 0 is used for PDCH in
combination with regular GPRS phones (MS class 12 or similar).
