Mainly to make data/packets look (pseudo-)correct in Wireshark.
Also: Add helper for allocating message buffers with extended headroom for IPA.

In libosmocore Change-ID I1834d90fbcdbfcb05f5b8cfe39bfe9543737ef8f
we have introduced ipa_ccm_id_resp_parse() as a bugfixed replacement
of ipa_ccm_idtag_parse().
The main difference is that the returned "value" parts now have
a correct reported "length", whereas before this commit they all
reported a one-byte too-long "length" for each IE.
Let's use this opportunity to remove the copy+pasted
osmo_ipa_idtag_parse() function from the libosmo-netif codebase.

The "channel" layer on top of IPA client + server was introduced in
2011 but never used in any osmocom program/project so far. Contrary
to the several other IPA multiplex related implementations in libosmo*,
it did not deal properly with segmented IPA messages, i.e. where a
single TCP segment (and hence recv/read call) does not contain a full
IPA message.
So rather than fixing it up and having yet another IPA related API in
our libraries, let's remove it.

This patch removes osmo_ipa_recv_msg, it performs two syscall invocations
and it's stream generic. Now we use the specific receival function
we want to use (no matter if stream or datagram based) and then we
call osmo_ipa_process_msg to check that the IPA message correct.
This patch adds the generic channel infrastructure that allows to
create channel of different types. Each channel has their own
configuration functions.
struct osmo_chan *chan;
chan = osmo_chan_create(tall_example, CHAN_ABIS_IPA_SERVER);
...
/* specific configuration functions per supported channel. */
osmo_chan_abis_ipa_server_set_cb_signalmsg(chan, signal_msg_cb);
osmo_chan_abis_ipa_unit_add(chan, 1801, 0);
/* open channel. */
osmo_chan_open(chan);
The input path requires a callback to be registered. The output path
is handled through:
int osmo_chan_enqueue(struct osmo_chan *c, struct msgb *msg);
The msg->dst must be set (it can be taken from the original message
to route one reply).
This patch also adds A-bis IPA server support. It has been tested with
e1inp_ipa_bsc_test available in libosmo-abis.
This patch adds IPA helper function that can be use on top of stream
sockets.
The current API is just a copy and paste from libosmo-abis, it will
change in follow up patches to improve it.
