Certain control interface commands also may require to verfy a range in
their verify function. cmd_range_match() from the VTY does exactly that
and the range can be specified as string, the same way as we would
specify it in the VTY.

Having the expert mode flag stored in the global 'host' structure
was a bad idea, because this way it applies globally. In other
words, if user Bob activates the expert mode in his dedicated
session (e.g. a telnet connection), then not only him, but all
other users would see the hidden commands in their VTYs.
Moreover, if somebody deactivates the expert mode, it would also
affect the Bob's VTY session. And finally, terminating a VTY
session would not deactivate the expert mode.
Let's move that flag from the global 'struct host' to 'struct vty'
representing an individual VTY session, so then the expert mode
would only affect the session where it was activated.
In functions related to the XML VTY reference generation we don't
have access to 'struct vty' (there may be no VTY session at all).
Add two additional arguments to vty_dump_nodes(), indicating the
global flag mask and a matching mode. This would allow to match
the VTY commands in many different ways, e.g. one can dump hidden
commands only, or all commands except the library specific ones.

This change introduces an enumerated type 'vty_ref_gen_mode' that
(as the name suggests) defines the VTY reference generation mode:
- DEFAULT - all commands except deprecated and hidden,
- EXPERT - all commands including hidden, excluding deprecated;
and a new function vty_dump_xml_ref_mode(), that allows to specify
that mode. The old vty_dump_xml_ref() is now deprecated.

Some VTY commands are intentionally hidden, e.g. because they might
by relatively dangerous if used in production operation. We equip
such commands with a special attribute - CMD_ATTR_HIDDEN.
The problem is that neiter they appear in the XML VTY reference,
nor in the online VTY help, so it's a bit tricky to invoke them.
This change introduces so-called 'expert' mode, in which hidden
(but not deprecated) commands are getting visible.
In the (telnet) VTY session, this mode can be activated by passing
an additional argument to well-known 'enable' command:
OsmoApp> enable ?
[expert-mode] Enable the expert mode (show hidden commands)
OsmoApp> enable expert-mode
OsmoApp#
so then hidden commands will appear together with all the other
commands. They will be marked with a special '^' flag:
OsmoApp# list with-flags
^ ... foo-hidden [expert-mode]
. ... foo-regular-one
! ... foo-immediate
^ u.. app-hidden-unbelievable
For the XML reference generation, additional API needs to be
introduced. This will be implemented in subsequent patches.

This new attribute would allow to distinguish commands provided
by libraries from commands registered by the application itself,
so vty_dump_element() would print proper description for the
library specific attributes.
All VTY commands defined by the libraries need to use the new API:
- install_lib_element(), and
- install_lib_element_ve,
instead of the old functions (respectively):
- install_element(), and
- install_element_ve().

Allow dumping the VTY XML reference (for generating manuals) to a normal FILE*
stream instead of a vty output buffer.
We currently generate the VTY reference by starting the client program,
connecting to the VTY telnet and dumping the reference. That is weirdly
convoluted, especially since there has to be a valid config file that
successfully starts up a minimal set of external links before the reference can
be generated. IMO we should have dumped the XML reference to stdout from the
start, and never to a VTY session.
With this patch, it is trivial to generate the XML VTY reference by a
commandline switch. The client program will set up the entire VTY, and
immediately after parsing the cmdline options but before parsing a config file,
just dumps the reference and doesn't even start establishing local ports. That
would allow generating the XML reference on the fly during the build process of
the manuals, without the need of a docker container or somesuch.
A first implementation of such a commandline switch is `osmo-bsc -X`, added in
I316efedb2c1652791434ecf14a1e261367cd2fb7
This patch jumps through a bit of a hoop to still allow dumping to a VTY buffer
without code dup, to still allow dumping the XML reference through telnet VTY,
until all our programs have implemented an -X switch (TM).

Following I5021c64a787b63314e0f2f1cba0b8fc7bff4f09b a deprecation of
vty_install_default() and install_default() commands is indicated.
However, compiler warnings may clutter build output or even fail strict builds,
hence I am submitting the deprecation in a separate patch.
Depends: I5021c64a787b63314e0f2f1cba0b8fc7bff4f09b

In many callers of the VTY API, we are lacking the vty_install_default() step
at certain node levels. This creates nodes that lack the 'exit' command, and
hence the only way to exit such a node is to restart the telnet session.
Historically, the VTY looked for missing commands on the immediate parent node,
and hence possibly found the parent's 'exit' command when the local node was
missing it. That is why we so far did not notice the missing default commands.
Furthermore, some callers call install_default() instead of
vty_install_default(). Only vty_install_default() also includes the 'exit' and
'end' commands. There is no reason why there are two sets of default commands.
To end this confusion, to catch all missing 'exit' commands and to prevent this
from re-appearing in the future, simply *always* install all default commands
implicitly when calling install_node().
In cmd_init(), there are some top-level nodes that apparently do not want the
default commands installed. Keep those the way they are, by changing the
invocation to new install_node_bare() ({VIEW,AUTH,AUTH_ENABLE}_NODE).
Make both install_default() and vty_install_default() no-ops so that users of
the API may still call them without harm. Do not yet deprecate yet, which
follows in Icf5d83f641e838cebcccc635a043e94ba352abff.
Drop all invocations to these two functions found in libosmocore.

The 'show online-help' produces XML output with <node id="..."> ids. We
reference those from the osmo-gsm-manuals.
Instead of numeric IDs coming from internal code, rather use a human-readable
node ID -- referencing id='config-msc' is much easier than referencing id='23'.
Add a char name[] to struct cmd_node, to hold this name. This may be provided
upon struct definition.
Since callers of the VTY API so far don't have a name yet, we would need to add
names everywhere to get meaningful node IDs. There is a way to get node ID
names without touching dependent code:
My first idea was to find out which command entered the node, i.e. command
'msc' enters the MSC_NODE. But it is impossible to derive which command entered
which node from data structs, it's hidden in the vty command definition.
But in fact all (TM) known API callers indeed provide a prompt string that
contains a logical and human readable string name. Thus, if the name is unset
in the struct, parse the prompt string and strip all "weird" characters to
obtain a node name from that. We can still set names later on, but for now will
have meaningful node IDs (e.g. 'config-msc' from '%s(config-msc)# ') without
touching any dependent code.
When VTY nodes get identical node names, which is quite possible, the XML
export de-dups these by appending _2, _3,... suffixes. The first occurence is
called e.g. 'name', the second 'name_2', then 'name_3', and so forth.
If a node has no name (even after parsing the prompt), it will be named merely
by the suffix. The first empty node will become id='_1', then '_2', '_3', and
so forth. This happens for nodes like VIEW_NODE or AUTH_NODE.
If this is merged, we need to adjust the references in osmo-gsm-manuals.git.
This can happen in our own time though, because we manually create the vty
reference xml and copy it to the osmo-gsm-manuals.git and then update the
references from the vty_additions.xml. This anyway has to happen because
currently the references tend to be hopelessly out of sync anyway, placing
comments at wildly unrelated VTY commands.

Note: This will break users' config files if they do not use consistent
indenting. (see below for a definition of "consistent".)
When reading VTY commands from a file, use indenting as means to implicitly
exit child nodes. Do not look for commands in the parent node implicitly.
The VTY so far implies 'exit' commands if a VTY line cannot be parsed on the
current node, but succeeds on the parent node. That is the mechanism by which
our VTY config files do not need 'exit' at the end of each child node.
We've hit problems with this in the following scenarios, which will show
improved user experience after this patch:
*) When both a parent and its child node have commands with identical names:
cs7 instace 0
point-code 1.2.3
sccp-address osmo-msc
point-code 0.0.1
If I put the parent's command below the child, it is still interpreted in the
context of the child node:
cs7 instace 0
sccp-address osmo-msc
point-code 0.0.1
point-code 1.2.3
Though the indenting lets me assume I am setting the cs7 instance's global PC
to 1.2.3, I'm actually overwriting osmo-msc's PC with 1.2.3 and discarding the
0.0.1.
*) When a software change moves a VTY command from a child to a parent. Say
'timezone' moved from 'bts' to 'network' level:
network
timezone 1 2
Say a user still has an old config file with 'timezone' on the child level:
network
bts 0
timezone 1 2
trx 0
The user would expect an error message that 'timezone' is invalid on the 'bts'
level. Instead, the VTY finds the parent node's 'timezone', steps out of 'bts'
to the 'network' level, and instead says that the 'trx' command does not exist.
Format:
Consistent means that two adjacent indenting lines have the exact
same indenting characters for the common length:
Weird mix if you ask me, but correct and consistent:
ROOT
<space>PARENT
<space><tab><space>CHILD
<space><tab><space><tab><tab>GRANDCHILD
<space><tab><space><tab><tab>GRANDCHILD2
<space>SIBLING
Inconsistent:
ROOT
<space>PARENT
<tab><space>CHILD
<space><space><tab>GRANDCHILD
<space><tab><tab>GRANDCHILD2
<tab>SIBLING
Also, when going back to a parent level, the exact same indenting must be used
as before in that node:
Incorrect:
ROOT
<tab>PARENT
<tab><tab><tab>CHILD
<tab><tab>SIBLING
As not really intended side effect, it is also permitted to indent the entire
file starting from the root level. We could guard against it but there's no
harm:
Correct and consistent:
<tab>ROOT
<tab><tab>PARENT
<tab><tab><tab><tab>CHILD
<tab><tab>SIBLING
Implementation:
Track parent nodes state: whenever a command enters a child node, push a parent
node onto an llist to remember the exact indentation characters used for that
level.
As soon as the first line on a child node is parsed, remember this new
indentation (which must have a longer strlen() than its parent level) to apply
to all remaining child siblings and grandchildren.
If the amount of spaces that indent a following VTY command are less than this
expected indentation, call vty_go_parent() until it matches up.
At any level, if the common length of indentation characters mismatch, abort
parsing in error.
Transitions to child node are spread across VTY implementations and are hard to
change. But transitions to the parent node are all handled by vty_go_parent().
By popping a parent from the list of parents in vty_go_parent(), we can also
detect that a command has changed the node without changing the parent, hence
it must have stepped into a child node, and we can push a parent frame.
The behavior on the interactive telnet VTY remains unchanged.

This may seem like overkill for a mere const char * config item, but it makes
the Control interface VTY commands reusable in any main() scope (inspired by
libosmo-abis' VTY config).
Add API functions ctrl_vty_init() and ctrl_vty_get_bind_addr(), in new files
src/ctrl/control_vty.c and include/osmocom/ctrl/control_vty.h, compiled and/or
installed dependent on ENABLE_VTY.
Using these functions allows configuring a static const char* with the VTY
commands
ctrl
bind A.B.C.D
which callers shall subsequently use to bind the Control interface to a
specific local interface address, by passing the return value of
ctrl_vty_get_bind_addr() to control_interface_setup().
Add CTRL_NODE to enum node_type, "eating" RESERVED4_NODE to heed that comment
on avoiding ABI changes.
Currently every time a node is added to enum node_type, this
constitutes an ABI change, since _LAST_OSMOVTY_NODE will get
incremented accordingly. In this case, every project that adds new
node type based on that value will have to be recompiled.
This commit adds 4 spare node type values, which can be replaced
one-by-one by new real types until they are exhausted to avoid
this kind of ABI change.
