There are 2 methods "rcvd_dl_ack()" in osmo-pcu code. One is used by
osmo-pcu itself, and the other is only used in tests.
Changing the tests to use the same method as osmo-pcu allows removing
the second one, and with it, a lot of code and complexity out of
osmo-pcu.

Tbftest expectatins need to change because 5000/20 = 250 < 255, hence
the message is now sent as units of 20ms instead of seconds.

Use the fact that the MS must answer the RRBP of the Pkt Cell Change
Continue with a CTRL ACK to find out whether the message was received
successfuly or a retransmission is potentially required.
3GPP TS 44.060:
"""
When the mobile station receives the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER or
the PACKET CELL CHANGE CONTINUE message the mobile station shall
transmit a PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGMENT message in the specified
uplink radio block if a valid RRBP field is received as part of the
message; the mobile station may then switch to a new cell.

A new nacc_fsm is introduced per MS object, with its partner priv
structure struct nacc_fsm_ctx, which exists and is available in the MS
object only during the duration of the NACC procedure.
The NACC context is created on an MS whenever a Pkt Cell Change
Notification is received on Uplink RLCMAC, which asks for neighbor
information of a given ARFCN+BSIC.
First, the target ARFCN+BSIC needs to be translated into a CGI-PS
(RAC+CI) address. That's done by asking the BSC through the Neighbour
Resolution Service available in osmo-bsc using the CTRL interface.
Once the CGI-PS of the target cell is known, PCU starts a RIM RAN-INFO
request against the SGSN (which will route the request as needed), and
wait for a response containing the SI bits from the target cell.
After the SI are received, the scheduler is instructed to eventually
poll a TBF for the MS originating the CCN, so that we can send the SI
encapsulated into multiple Packet Neighbor Cell Data messages on the
downlink.
One all the SI bits are sent, the scheduler is instructed to send a
Packet Cell Change Continue message.
Once the message above has been sent, the FSM autodestroys itself.
Caches are also introduced in this patch which allows for re-using
recently known translations ARFCN+BSIC -> CGI-PS and CGI-PS -> SI_INFO
respectively.

According to:
* 3GPP TS 44.060 version 16.0.0 "9.3.1a Delayed release of downlink Temporary Block Flow"
* 3GPP TS 44.064 version 16.0.0 "6.4.2.2 Unconfirmed Information (UI) Dummy command"
LLC UI Dummy frames are to be used when there no more data to send, only
in order to delay the release of a TBF. Hence, while not incorrect per
se, makes no sense to send those LLC UI Dummy frames inserted into
rlcmac blocks which already contain other LLC frames, since the MS in
that case is already being kept active.
It only makes sense to send those LLC UI Dummy frames when we have
nothing else to send, that is, alone inside a RLCMAC block without other
LLC frames.

It's quite odd to see that in write_packet_downlink_assignment()
we initialize an 'RlcMacDownlink_t', so then the caller can use
the power of CSN.1 codec to generate the final sequence of bytes
to be transmitted, while in write_packet_uplink_assignment() we
already compose the final RLC/MAC message straight away using
the low-level bitvec API (like bitvec_write_field()).
I guess the reason is that at the time of writing this code, the
CSN.1 codec was not stable enough, so it was safer to generate
the message 'by hand'. This would also explain why we *decode*
the final RLC/MAC message in create_ul_ass() right after encoding.
Rewrite write_packet_uplink_assignment(), so now it initializes
a caller-provided 'RlcMacDownlink_t' structure. Given that it's
allocated on heap using talloc_zero(), do not initialize presence
indicators of fields that are not present in the message.
This would facilitate handling of frequency hopping parameters
in the upcoming changes, in particular we can now introduce a
function that would compose Frequency Parameters IE for both
write_packet_{downlink,uplink}_assignment().
Tested manually by running a GPRS-enabled network, as well as by
running test cases from ttcn3-pcu-test => no regressions observed.

In order to be able to encode frequency hopping parameters, let's
pass a const pointer to 'gprs_rlcmac_pdch' (PDCH slot) directly,
instead of passing all related parameters separately.

In get_paging_mi(), before this, an encoded buffer of Mobile Identity bytes is
returned. Code paths following this repeatedly decode the Mobile Identity
bytes, e.g. for logging. Also, in get_paging_mi(), since the TMSI is read in
from a different encoding than a typical Mobile Identity IE, the TMSI was
manually encoded into a typical Mobile Identity IE. This is essentially a code
dup of osmo_mobile_identity_encode(). Stop this madness.
Instead, in get_paging_mi(), return a decoded struct osmo_mobile_identity. Code
paths after this use the struct osmo_mobile_identity directly without repeated
decoding.
At the point of finally needing an encoded Mobile Identity IE (in
Encoding::write_paging_request()), do a proper osmo_mobile_identity_encode().
Since this may return errors, add an rc check for the caller of
write_paging_request(), gprs_rlcmac_paging_request().
A side effect is stricter validation of the Mobile Identity passing through the
Paging code path. Before, invalid MI might have passed through unnoticed.

We have same kind of object splitted into two layers, in coding_scheme
and gprs_coding_scheme. Let's merge them together and get rid of the

operating on one enum value.
This change also fixes gcc 10.1.0 error about memseting a complex type

Original file from wireshark.git (packet-gsm_csn1.c) is being built and
maintained as a C file. There's no real need for us to maintain it as a
C++, and doing so will make both files derive over time (as already
happened). Let's keep it as a C compiler (which btw seems to be more
strict) to make it easier to port patches back and forth wireshark.git.
Take the chance to move some declarations we added to csn1.h to be able
to build it out of wireshark. Let's keep those in a separate header file
to ease looking for differences.

P-TMSI is optional IE, but IE is mandatory and hence always available.
Since the encoding is actually a Mobile Identity, the IMSI is used in
case P-TMSI is not available.

When PDAN/EPDAN with channel description is received, PCU will generate the

based on section 7.1.3.2.1 and 8.1.2.5 of 44.060 version 7.27.0 Release 7.
This patch also includes the test case to validate the generated

The EGPRS support will need more information to encode the IMMEDIATE
ASSIGMENT. Instead of adding more parameters pass a pointer to the
TBF unless an SBA shall be done (indicated by tbf == NULL). All
values that can be derived from the TBF and are not needed for an SBA
are removed from the parameter list.
Return a negative value on error.

Currently the old TFI is always used as ID when a
PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT is generated. This fails
if the old TBF has not been fully assigned yet. The
MS will then ignore the PDA.
This commit changes write_packet_downlink_assignment to accept
an additional parameter old_tfi_is_valid and uses the new TBF's
TLLI instead of the olf TFI if that parameter is set to false.

Currently the checks for and the actual polling is done in several
places by copy & paste of several lines of code. This hinders changes
of they polling is handled internally and also is likely source of
programming mistakes.
Separate this into a check_polling function, that checks whether
polling is possible and returns the FN and the RRBP to be used in
that case. Otherwise the cause is logged (LOGL_DEBUG) and a negative
error value is returned. There are no other side effect beside the
logging.
If the call is successful, the set_polling method can be used to
actually register the polling.

This function appends a single chunk to an RLC downlink data block.

Currently the (GPRS) RLC block encoding is done by setting the
header fields directly in gprs_rlcmac_dl_tbf::create_new_bsn.
This is much more complex with EGPRS, since the data fields are
not byte aligned, the header formats depend on the header type,
and the mapping of bits to bytes is LSB first.
This commit adds Encoding::rlc_write_dl_data_header which writes
the header according to the given gprs_rlc_data_header structure.
Encoding::rlc_copy_from_aligned_buffer is also added to copy
byte sequences into the message.
Note that the actual encoding of data units is not yet present.
