If we use the infrastructure provided by osmo_ss7 on the lower layer and
the SCCP SCRC, SCLC and SCOC code on the upper side, not much of the
original sua.c code remains. It looks much like the M3UA code now.

This is an implementation of SCCP as specified in ITO-T Q.71x,
particularly the SCRC (routing), SCLC (Connectionless) and SCOC
(Connection Oriented) portions. the elaborate state machines of
SCOC are implemented using osmo_fsm, with one state machine for each
connection.
Interfaces to the top (user application) are the SCCP-USER-SAP and on
the bottom (network) side the MTP-USER-SAP as provided by osmo_ss7.
Contrary to a straight-forward implementation, the code internally
always uses a SUA representation of all messages (in struct xua_msg).
This enables us to have one common implementation of all related state
machines and use them for both SUA and SCCP. If used with real SCCP
wire format, all messages are translated from SCCP to SUA on ingress and
translated from SUA to SCCP on egress. As SUA is a super-set of SCCP,
this can be done "lossless".

This is what aims to be a rather complete/proper implementation of the
SIGTRAN + SS7 protocol suite. It has proper abstraction between the
layers with primitives, finite state machines for things like the AS and
ASP state machines, support for point code routing, etc.
What's not implemented at this point:
* re-integration of pre-existing SUA (pending)
* actual MTP2 and physical E1/T1 link support
* different trafic modes like broadcast/fail-over/load-balance
