In most cases the length field was present and this field takes 7
bits of the maximum available 110 rest bits.
The length field was only removed when encoding huge bitmaps usually
only happen on lossy connections with packet lost.
However the cases without length field were encoded incorrect,
because all remaining bits must be used by the uncompressed bitmaps,
but the PCU violates this by encoding always the "release 5" bit.
Rather than fixing the encoding without length field, simply remove it
and always encode with length field. This also reduces the code
complexity.

Write initial bits of 3GPP TS 44.018 §10.5.2.16 IA Rest Octets the same
way as write_ia_rest_*() routines do.

Write TAI (if available) when generating Rest Octets for UL

Use bitvec_set_*() directly without external write pointer tracking to
simplify the code. This is part of IA Rest Octets (3GPP TS 44.018
§10.5.2.16) which is the last part of the message so it should not
interfere with the rest of encoding functions.
The difference in the expected test output is due to proper handling of
TAI which should not be transmitted for SBA according to the Note in
Table 10.5.2.16.1 in 3GPP TS 44.018.
The change was manually tested against real mobile phone using options
'gprs mode gprs' in osmo-bsc.cfg and 'two-phase-access' in osmo-pcu.cfg
to make sure appropriate code path is actually triggered.
That's partially based on reverted commit 93d947f5e8.

Previously result of ".to_num() - 1" was used without any checks which
means that in case of to_num() returning zero we would effectively try
to encode (uint8_t)(-1).
Let's fix this by using proper mcs_chan_code() function which returns
Channel Coding Command for MCS without the need to further correct it
and adjust expected tests output accordingly.

In preparation for upcoming patches with 11 bit RACH and TA support,
let's restructure existing encoders to simplify further modifications:
* move consistency checks to top-level Imm. Ass. encoder
* use consistent formatting
* constify pointers where appropriate
* split SBA and MBA encoders into separate functions
Those changes also make it obvious which parameters are necessary for
Rest Octets in each specific case (DL, UL-SBA, UL-MBA, UL-SBA-EGPRS,
UL-MBA-EGPRS).
There're no functional code changes so there's no need to adjust tests.

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.
