[alloc] Assign a TCH for LU when all SDCCHs are occupied.
When the cell becomes visible we will be bombed with location updating requests and to reduce the load on the network we should assign as many channels for it as possible. During load peek it is even more important than to have a spare voice channel and in general the LU procedure is pretty fast.
