A BTS can (optionally) have more than one transceiver. In this case
additional (let's say child) transceivers basically share the same
clock source of the first transceiver, and being powered on / off
as soon as the first transceiver is powered on / off.

It was discovered that using an empty list as default argument
value does result into the cross-reference, i.e. all instances
of BurstForwarder would reference the same trx_list object.
This is not an expected behaviour, let's fix this.

Passing NULL to sap_msg_free() is not only meaningless, but also
would result in NULL pointer dereference. We should call it in
successful case only, so let's fix this.

Due to a mistake, average RSSI value of received bursts was not
converted to GSM RX level (range 0..63), so trxcon has been
sending incorrect values to the higher layers.
Let's fix this, and also prevent possible division by zero.

There are several SIM card interfaces, two of which:
- GSM_SIM_TYPE_L1PHY (using built-in SIM reader of the L1 PHY),
- GSM_SIM_TYPE_SAP (using remote reader via (BT)SAP protocol),
can actually deal with a physical SIM card. But, for some reason,
only GSM_SIM_TYPE_L1PHY was considered as such. Let's also get
along with GSM_SIM_TYPE_SAP for the following procedures:
- PIN management and verification,
- FPLMN / LOCI updating,
- A3 authentication.

Since we have two ways to interact with a physical SIM:
- using built-in SIM reader of the L1 PHY (via L1CTL),
- using remote reader via (BT)SAP protocol,
name 'GSM_SIM_TYPE_READER' looks quite confusing. Let's rename it
in order to explicitly indicate the role of L1 PHY.

Almost all layer23 applications, excluding mobile, have nothing
to do with SAP interface. Moreover, the current implementation
does initialize SAP connection automatically, as soon as the
first message is sent.

This change is a big step towards handling of multiple transceivers
in a single process, i.e. multiple MS and multiple BTS connections.
The old class hierarchy wasn't flexible enough, because initially
fake_trx was designed as a bridge between OsmocomBB and OsmoBTS,
but not as the burst router. There were two separate, but 90%
similar implementations of the CTRL interface, two variations
of each simulation parameter - one for UL, another for DL.
The following new classes are introduced:
- Transceiver - represents a single transceiver, that can be
used as for the BTS side, as for the MS side. Each instance
has its own CTRL, DATA, and (optionally) CLCK interfaces,
among with basic state variables, such as both RX / TX freq.,
power state (running or idle) and list of active timeslots.
- CTRLInterfaceTRX - unified control interface handler for
common transceiver management commands, such as POWERON,
RXTUNE, and SETSLOT. Deprecates both CTRLInterface{BB|BTS}.
- FakeTRX - basically, a child of Transceiver, extended with
RF path (burst loss, RSSI, TA, ToA) simulation. Implements
a custom CTRL command handler for CTRLInterfaceTRX.
The following classes were refactored:
- BurstForwarder - still performs burst forwarding, but now
it doesn't store any simulation parameters, and doesn't
know who is BTS, and who is MS. Actually, BurstForwarder
transforms each L12TRX message into a TRX2L1 message, and
dispatches it between running transceivers with matching
RX frequency and matching timeslot.
- FakePM - still generates random RSSI values, but doesn't
distinguish between MS and BTS anymore. As soon as a
measurement request is received, it attempts to find
at least one running TRX on a given frequency.
Please note that fake_trx.py still does handle only a single pair
of MS and BTS. No regressions have been observed. Both new and
refactored classes were documented.

In I6b9a8b611ea1e9badc4d9ddf13aa9e237028e39a an optional legacy
message coding mode was introduced. Let's add the corresponding
argument to send_msg() and pass it to gen_msg().

Some transceivers (e.g. OsmoTRX) have inherited a rudiment from
OpenBTS - two dummy bytes at the end of TRX2L1 messages. Despite
they are absolutely useless, some L1 implementations, such as
trxcon and OpenBTS, still do expect them when checking
the message length.
Let's add an optional (disabled by default) argument to gen_msg(),
that would enable adding those two dummy bytes.

False is not iterable, so we should properly handle the case

incorrect offset specified).

This change extends DATAInterface class with new methods:
- recv_raw_data() - read raw data from socket;
- recv_l12trx_msg() - read raw data and parse as L12TRX;
- recv_trx2l1_msg() - read raw data and parse as TRX2L1;
which would simplify the further usage of this class.

Before this change, it was impossible to configure logging
parameters from command line, such as log level and format.
This change introduces the following optional arguments:
--log-level - logging level for stderr (by default, DEBUG);
--log-format - logging message format for stderr;
--log-file-name - enable logging to a given file;
--log-file-level - logging level for file (by default, DEBUG);
--log-file-format - logging message format for file;
which are defined in a new class called ApplicationBase, so
all existing applications should inherit them now.

There are multiple advantages of using Python's logging module:
- advanced message formatting (file name, line number, etc.),
- multiple logging targets (e.g. stderr, file, socket),
- logging levels (e.g. DEBUG, INFO, ERROR),
- the pythonic way ;)
so, let's replace multiple print() calls by logging calls,
add use the following logging message format by default:
[%(levelname)s] %(filename)s:%(lineno)d %(message)s
Examples:
[INFO] ctrl_if_bts.py:57 Starting transceiver...
[DEBUG] clck_gen.py:87 IND CLOCK 26826
[DEBUG] ctrl_if_bts.py:71 Recv POWEROFF cmd
[INFO] ctrl_if_bts.py:73 Stopping transceiver...
[INFO] fake_trx.py:127 Shutting down...
Please note that there is no way to filter messages by logging
level yet. This is to be introduced soon, together with argparse.

The randomization of both UL/DL RSSI and ToA values is optional,
and can be configured from the control interface (see both
FAKE_RSSI and FAKE_TOA commands).
The command line options for enabling / disabling the randomization
were redundant, so let's get rid of them and check if the
corresponding treshold value is set.
Change-Id: I6adc13b8989ade2fab895673525c0ca17bf9b3f2
For some reason, the time-slot pass-filtering was only done for
DL bursts, but not for UL bursts. BurstForwarder shall not pass
UL bursts for unconfigured time-slots too.
Let's also print a warning if an UL burst is sent on a not
configured time-slot, i.e. before sending SETSLOT command.
Change-Id: Idb7f5b212e5814aeff8ca8bc875ad066674267cd
Previously it was only possible to configure a single time-slot
that would be pass-filtered by a BurstForwarder instance. In some
applications it would be useful to configure multiple time-slots,
so let's refactor the time-slot pass-filtering algorithm.
Change-Id: Ie1490adaf7a7c62c966aeb60c1898eaf3b5a1e84
Instead of having all configuration variables of BurstForwarder
initialized in the class heading, let's introduce two functions
for initialization (resetting to defaults) of both UL/DL params.
This would allow to reset a BurstForwarder instance from the
control interface in follow-up patches.
Let's also introduce some basic documentation for the class
fields, which were defined in the heading previously.
