This will allow for configuration of some of the timers by the user,
and allow him to inspect current values being used.
It will be also useful for TTCN3 tests which may want to test some of
the timers without having to wait for lots of time.
Timers are splitted into 2 groups: BTS controlled ones and PCU controlled
ones. The BTS controlled ones are read-only by the user (hence no
"timer" VTY command is provided to change them).
TbfTest.err output changes due to timers being set up correctly as a
consequence of changes. Other application such as pcu_emu.cpp and
pcu_main.cpp had to previosuly set the initial values by hand (and did
so), but apparently TbfTest.c was missing that part, which is now fixed
for free.

parameter removed (c65c5b4ea075ef6cef11fff9442ae0b15c1d6af7). However,

The instance bssgp_nsi is a global instance to be used by all
NS related functions. Previous the PCU allocated and initialized
the bssgp_nsi instance when (re-)connecting and freeing on disconnect.
The problem of the implicit initialisation is gprs_ns_vty_init(bssgp_nsi).
All vty init functions must be called before the configuration is read,
otherwise a previous vty written configuration is invalid.
Furthermore the vty modifications to the `ns` object were lost when the PCU has to
reconnect to the SGSN.

The rach request contains a relative frame number (Fn % 42432),

Since the BTS is always aware of the full frame number this is

ARFCN is already part of TRX struct so there's no need to supply it
explicitly in a separate parameter. I've tested and those are the same
anyway.

During MCS upgradation such as MCS6->MCS9, 2 blocks which
were sent separately as MCS6, will be clubbed into one MCS9
block during retransmission. Same holds good for
MCS5->MCS7 transistion. During MCS reduction such as
MCS9->MCS6,2 blocks which were sent together will be
sent separately during the retransmission case.
Same is verified through the generated log file. Currently
MCS8->MCS6 transition is not supported. The retransmission
MCS is being calculated from Table 8.1.1.2 of TS 44.060.
The same test cases are also integration tested on Nuran
1.0 platform.

It makes no sense to call functions on null pointer object. Use
the name of the old tbf.

Adds support to find the puncturing scheme for retransmission
with MCS change, retransmission with no MCS change, transmission
case. Puncturing scheme selection for retransmission case with
MCS change is aligned with TS 44.060 9.3.2.1. Puncturing scheme
selection for retransmission without MCS change, fresh transmission
is aligned with TS 44.060 10.4.8a.3.1, 10.4.8a.2.1, 10.4.8a.1.1
This patch is for fixing encoding of padding bits according to the
3gpp spec 44.060 section 11, wherein it shall always start with 0
bit followed with spare padding bits.
During introduction of basic EGPRS feature new hex dump messages
from a different working network log were used in Unit test. These
exposed the issue of incorrect handling of padding bits encoding
in osmo-pcu.
Corrections in the existing test vector of rlcmac is also updated.
In testsuite tbf appropriate corrections for the Tbftest.err is
also done.
Currently single BSN blocks of size 68 (a single unit from MCS-8)
are put into a MCS-6 block with padding according to TS 44.060
Annex J. Unfortunately, these packets are ignored by the E71. This
might be related to the currently incorrect usage of the puncturing
schemes and the RSB bit (the puncturing schemes are not updated and
the RBS flag is never set).
Avoid downgrading from MCS-8 to MCS-6 if there is no second block
available. Send the block twice instead.

Currently only one BSN block is encoded in each RLC data message,
even if MSC7-9 are used, which transport two independant (except for a
max BSN delta of 512) BSN blocks. In that case, the same block is
just put twice into the same message.
The current create_dl_acked_block(fn, ts) method handles
block selection (resend, new BSN, dummy block, ...) and restart
handling in one method and is too complex to extend it accordingly.
Therefore this commit move the block selection/creation handling into
a new method (take_next_bsn) which delivers the next BSN along with a
hint, whether it may be combined with another block. In that case,
the function can be called a second time (this time with a valid
previous BSN, that's the one returned by the first call) to get the
second BSN. The real block generation method
create_dl_acked_block(fn, ts, index, index2) is then called with both
BSNs as indices (the second must be -1, if there is only one BSN).
Note that every BSN returned by take_next_bsn should be passed to
create_dl_acked_block to avoid state inconsistencies.

Currently the method is hard-coded to support a single BSN only.
MCS-7 to MCS-9 encode 2 data blocks into a single RLC data message.
This commit refactors create_dl_acked_block to process any number
of blocks internally.
Note that this does not extend the parameter list accordingly and
just duplicates the BSN if these MCS are being used.

Currently the state on the TBF is set to ASSIGN when it is created
and in general changed to FLOW when it is acknowledged by the MS. The
moment when the assignment is really transmitted to the MS (which can
take some time) is not reflected by the state. A TBF can considered
to be valid, when the assignment is received by the MS.
Add the state WAIT_ASSIGN that is entered when the assigment has been
send to the MS (more precisely: when the corresponding RTS has been
processed or the message has been sent to the BTS).
The TBF, its PDCH(s), and its TFI can be assumed to be valid, when the
TBF has a state of WAIT_ASSIGN or higher (assuming that the TBF
starting time has not been set, which is currently only done for SBA,
which are not associated with a TBF).
Note that due to queuing in the BTS there can still be a invalid
time period for immediate assignments, when the request is lingering
in the AGCH or PCH queues.

The EGPRS support will need more information to encode the IMMEDIATE
ASSIGMENT. Instead of adding more parameters pass a pointer to the
TBF unless an SBA shall be done (indicated by tbf == NULL). All
values that can be derived from the TBF and are not needed for an SBA
are removed from the parameter list.
Return a negative value on error.

Currently the old TFI is always used as ID when a
PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT is generated. This fails
if the old TBF has not been fully assigned yet. The
MS will then ignore the PDA.
This commit changes write_packet_downlink_assignment to accept
an additional parameter old_tfi_is_valid and uses the new TBF's
TLLI instead of the olf TFI if that parameter is set to false.

Currently the checks for and the actual polling is done in several
places by copy & paste of several lines of code. This hinders changes
of they polling is handled internally and also is likely source of
programming mistakes.
Separate this into a check_polling function, that checks whether
polling is possible and returns the FN and the RRBP to be used in
that case. Otherwise the cause is logged (LOGL_DEBUG) and a negative
error value is returned. There are no other side effect beside the
logging.
If the call is successful, the set_polling method can be used to
actually register the polling.
Extend the encoder functions' parameters lists by an rrbp parameter.

Currently tbf->control_ts is used to look up an incoming poll
response. Since that may eventually change, poll timeouts could
theoretically happen in that case.
Store the real poll TS in tbf->poll_ts at all places where
tbf->poll_fn is set. Do not use tbf->control_ts to look up
outstanding polls.

Currently existing TBF can be reused after an MS has sent a RACH
request. Since the MS can be or most probably is in packet idle mode
in that case, the TBF are no longer usable even if they share the
PDCHs and the control TS with the new one.
There are occasional freezes where the MS does no longer react to
messages sent on the PACCH.
This change aborts all pending TBFs if a new TBF is or has been
established via RACH.
