tlv_parser: Report *first* occurrence of repeated IEs

Most GSM related specifications require the receiver to use the
*first* occurrence of repeated IEs.  The Osmocom TLV parser so
far did the opposite: It reported only the *last* occurrence in
case of repeated IEs.  Let's change our implementation to be
more in-line with relevant specs, such as 3GPP TS 24.008 8.6.3.
