In order to allow unit testing the ctrl iface msgb handling, have a separate
msgb entry point function from the actual fd read function.
An upcoming patch will prove a memory leak in CTRL msgb handling by a unit test
that needs this separation.

Add ctrl_interface_setup_dynip2() to add a node_count parameter, which can be
used to define more ctrl nodes without having to merge a patch to libosmocore.
In consequence, also add ctrl_handle_alloc2(), since
ctrl_interface_setup_dynip() uses ctrl_handle_alloc() to allocate the node
slots, and add node_count param to static ctrl_init().
Passing zero as node_count indicates to use the default of _LAST_CTRL_NODE as
before, i.e. to not define more ctrl nodes. Assert that we never allocate less
than _LAST_CTRL_NODE slots.
The current ctrl_interface_setup_dynip() and ctrl_handle_alloc() become simple
wrappers that pass zero as node_count. Their use is still valid and they do not
need to be deprecated.
The API comment to ctrl_interface_setup_dynip2() explains how to define more
node IDs.
This patch was verified to work by osmo-hlr.git change
I98ee6a06b3aa6a67adb868e0b63b0e04eb42eb50 which adds two node IDs for use by
osmo-hlr only.

Considering the various styles and implications found in the sources, edit
scores of files to follow the same API doc guidelines around the doxygen
grouping and the \file tag.
Many files now show a short description in the generated API doc that was so
far only available as C comment.
The guidelines and reasoning behind it is documented at
https://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/Guidelines_for_API_documentation
In some instances, remove file comments and add to the corresponding group
instead, to be shared among several files (e.g. bitvec).

Sometimes (particularly when testing), we may want to parse+execute an
arbitrary control command simply form a string buffer, rather than from
a msgb. Let's add a helper for that.

When executing test cases, we don't want to bind to a local TCP port, as
we cannot make assumptions as to which ports are actually free.

The existing code assumes that the main application knows about all
control command nodes and can thus present one lookup function.
As libraries are getting their own control interface handling, this
is too restrictive, and we need a way how library code can dynamically
register more node lookup helpers. We can now do this by means of a
ctrl_lookup_register() function.

Add function for allocating CTRL connection to public headers and
replace call to previous static function with it. Add doxygen docs for
this function.
It's useful if we need to allocate ctrl connection but don't need to
bind to any interfaces: when we act as ctrl client.

Make the ctrl interface bind address configurable, so that it may be made
available on other addresses than 127.0.0.1. The specific aim is to allow
running multiple osmo-nitbs alongside each other (commits in openbsc follow).
The control interface user now only has to register a very short
node lookup function callback. This function is optional, and only
required if hierarchical command lookup should be supported.
