Previous code relied on abort() switching sigaction to SIG_FDL +
retriggering SIGABRT in case the signal handler returns, which would
then generate the coredump + terminate the process.
However, if a SIGABRT is received from somewhere else (kill -SIGABRT),
then the process would print the talloc report and continue running,
which is not desired.

Some commands, such as SETTA or SETPOWER, are expected to be sent
when the transceiver is powered on. We should not drop Uplink
bursts while waiting TRXC response.
For now it's easier to comment out the state check completely,
because the existing TRXC state machine is quite messy.

In general, premature scheduling of to be transmitted bursts
inevitably increases the time delay between Uplink and Downlink.
The more we advance TDMA frame number, the greater gets this
delay. 20 TDMA frames is definitely more than a regular
transceiver needs to pre-process a burst before transmission.

When running together with fake_trx.py (mostly used back-end), it
is currently possible that Downlink bursts are received in a wrong
order if more than one transceiver is configured (multi-trx mode).
This is how it looks like:
DTRXD DEBUG trx_if.c:612 RX burst tn=3 fn=629 rssi=-86 toa=0
DSCHD DEBUG sched_lchan_tchf.c:60 Traffic received on TCH/F: fn=629 ts=3 bid=1
DTRXD DEBUG trx_if.c:612 RX burst tn=3 fn=630 rssi=-86 toa=0
DSCHD DEBUG sched_lchan_tchf.c:60 Traffic received on TCH/F: fn=630 ts=3 bid=2
DTRXD DEBUG trx_if.c:612 RX burst tn=3 fn=631 rssi=-86 toa=0
DSCHD DEBUG sched_lchan_tchf.c:60 Traffic received on TCH/F: fn=631 ts=3 bid=3
DTRXD DEBUG trx_if.c:612 RX burst tn=3 fn=633 (!) rssi=-86 toa=0
DSCHD NOTICE sched_trx.c:663 Substituting (!) lost TDMA frame 632 on TCH/F
DSCHD DEBUG sched_lchan_tchf.c:60 Traffic received on TCH/F: fn=632 ts=3 bid=0
DSCHD DEBUG sched_lchan_tchf.c:60 Traffic received on TCH/F: fn=633 ts=3 bid=1
DTRXD DEBUG trx_if.c:612 RX burst tn=3 fn=632 (!) rssi=-86 toa=0
DTRXD NOTICE sched_trx.c:640 Too many (>104) contiguous TDMA frames elapsed (2715647)
since the last processed fn=633 (current fn=632)
so here a burst with TDMA fn=633 was received earlier than a burst
with TDMA fn=632. The burst loss detection logic considered the
latter one as lost, and substituted it with a dummy burst. When
finally the out-of-order burst with TDMA fn=632 was received, we
got the large number of allegedly elapsed frames:
((632 + 2715648) - 633) % 2715648 == 2715647
Given that late bursts get substituted, the best thing we can do
is to reject them and log an error. Passing them to the logical
channel handler (again) might lead to undefined behaviour.

It's not something that we should be trying to fix, if the whole
TDMA multi-frame is lost. For some yet unknown reason, sometimes
the difference between the last processed TDMA frame number and
the current one is so huge, so trxcon eats a lot of CPU trying
to compensate nearly the whole TDMA hyper-frame:
sched_trx.c:640 Too many (>104) contiguous TDMA frames elapsed (2715647)
since the last processed fn=633 (current fn=632)
Let's just print a warning and do not compensate more than one
TDMA multi-frame period corresponding to the current layout.

L1CTL is using the network byte order, because this protocol is
spoken between different devices and architectures. Somehow I
forgot about this while adding SETFH command back in 2018.

It would make sense to send the ARFCN list in parameters of SETFH
command, if there was a clear distinction between transceivers in
fake_trx.py, i.e. which one is an MS and which is a BTS.
Right now, every Transceiver is an abstract entity that emits
and receives bursts. So when you convert an ARFCN to a pair of
Downlink/Uplink frequencies, you don't know whether it maps
as Rx/Tx or as Tx/Rx for a given Transceiver.
Of course, we could assume that this is an MS specific feature,
and a pair of Downlink/Uplink frequencies always corresponds to
Rx/Tx, but what if some day we would need to implement and test
a similar approach for the BTS side? Also, by sending frequency
values in kHz (rather than ARFCNs) we can avoid inconsistency
with the existing RXTUNE / TXTUNE commands.

L1CTL handling code should not be involved in such high level checks, so
while at it, move the check into a separate function in gsm48_rr.c and
add a length check. gsm48_rr_tx_voice() is the only caller of
l1ctl_tx_traffic_req().

Since we're heavily using trxcon in ttcn3-bts-test, the logging
output should contain as much information as possible. Ideally
we should introduce the VTY interface (see OS#3666) and get
logging configuration options as a bonus. But let's just use
some beneficial hard-coded defaults for now:
- print category and level (huh, we use NOTICE everywhere?),
- do not print category-hex (who needs it anyway?),
- print extended timestamp, so we're in synce with other logs.
P.S. This configuration is based on my own debugging experience.

GPRS (PDCH) and CBCH related frames have nothing to do with LAPDm.
The former uses LLC for the user-plane data, while CBCH involves
its own segmentation described in 3GPP TS 23.041 and TS 44.012.
There is currently no code for handling these kinds of frames, so
let's just send them to GSMTAP and release the memory (msgb).

As was noted by Pau Espin Pedrol, there is a theoretical chance
that lchan->tdma.num_proc would overflow, so as a consequence,
subst_frame_loss() will be unable to compensate one
(potentionally lost) Downlink burst.
On practice, given the size of unsigned long and duration of a
single TDMA frame, it would only happen once in roughly ~6 years.
FRAME_DURATION = 4615 * 10e-6
ULONG_MAX = 2 ** 32 - 1
FRAME_DURATION * ULONG_MAX -> ~198212740 seconds
-> ~55059 hours
-> ~2294 days
-> ~6 years.
Chances are that trxcon would crash much earlier, or even GSM
would be completely forgotten after such a long time run, but
let's work this around and simply start counting from 1
if that overflow eventually happens.

It may happen that the burst reception would start from bid != 0:
<0005> sched_trx.c:263 (Re)configure TDMA timeslot #2 as TCH/H+SACCH
<0005> sched_trx.c:420 Activating lchan=TCH/H(0) on ts=2
<0005> sched_trx.c:420 Activating lchan=SACCH/TH(0) on ts=2
<0006> sched_lchan_xcch.c:96 Received incomplete data frame at fn=0 (0/104) for SACCH/TH(0)
<0006> sched_lchan_xcch.c:106 Received bad data frame at fn=0 (0/104) for SACCH/TH(0)
so in that case, both measurement processing and the frame number
calculation would yield incorrect and/or incomplete results. The
Rx burst mask can be used to eliminate this problem.
In particular, if we shift it left instead of cleaning, it would
never be equal 0x00 after at least one burst is received. This
would allow us to skip decoding of an incomplete frame at the
beginning when the logical channel was just activated.
Note that TCH/H handler is not affected because it already uses
the strategy described above, so we keep it unchanged.

It may happen that one or more Downlink bursts are lost on their
way to the MS due to a variety of reasons. Modern transceivers
supporting TRXDv1 protocol would substitute lost bursts with
so-called NOPE indications. Hovewer, neither fake_trx.py nor
grgsm_trx do support this feature at the moment.
We can still detect and compensate TDMA frame loss per logical
channels in the same way as it's already done in osmo-bts-trx.
In short, we should keep TDMA frame number of the last received
burst in the logical channel state, and using the appropriate
multiframe layout, check if there were any gaps between TDMA
frame number of the current burst and the stored one.
Change-Id: I3551d79796a3730565c2c70577e9d134e636f275
Using TDMA frame number of a burst with bid=0 is fine for xCCH,
but not for TCH and FACCH, because they use the block-diagonel
interleaving. A single block on TCH may be interleaved over
8, 4 or even 6 consecutive bursts depending on its type.
Since we now have the measurement history, we can attach TDMA
frame number to each measurement set, and then look up N-th
one when averaging the measurements in sched_trx_meas_avg().

This allows us to bind the multicast sockets to a given network device
and/or to set the TTL of the multicast frames and hence control their
