Previously MAXDLY value was applied to Normal Bursts, which was nice
when working with sloppy test equipment like CMD57, but useless for
real world usage. At the same time documentation and de facto usage
of MAXDLY in OsmoBTS and OpenBTS assumed that it actually applies to
Access Bursts (RACH). So this patch changes osmo-rx behavior to apply
MAXDLY to RACH bursts and introduces a new command MAXDLYNB for the
old behavior.

When EDGE is enabled with the '-e' option, the random burst generator
switches from GMSK normal bursts to 8-PSK EDGE bursts.

Create EDGE slot type in the Transceiver. When EDGE mode is enabled
for a particular slot, blind detection will be performed by
correlating against EDGE followed by normal bursts if no EDGE burst
is found.

Allow setting the device to non single SPS sample rates - mainly
running at 4 SPS as the signal processing library does not support
other rates. Wider bandwith support is required on the receive path
to avoid 8-PSK bandlimiting distortion for EDGE.

DFE equalizer is unused and has been experiencing code rot for
multiple years. The effect is a significant amount of baggage being
carried in the Transceiver and interfaces.

We can't rely on an assumption that if we can't decode a burst - it's noise.
There are many rasons why we can't decode a burst even if it's well above the
noise level. Just one example is a RACH burst which can be overlapped with
another RACH burst up to a level both are completely unrecognizable. Another
example is when a burst is destroyed by bad multi-path.

There are two primary changes in this commit:
1) Return values of detect functions changed form bool to int to actually pass
the return value from the inner function and notify higher levels about clipping.
Previously the information was lost due to conversion to bool.
2) Clipping level is not the final verdict now. We still try to demod a burst
and mark it as clipped only if the level is above the clipping level AND we can't
demod it. The reasoning for this is that in real life we want to do as much as
possible to demod the burst, because we want to get as much from our dynamic
range as possible. So a little bit of clipping is fine and is expected. We just
don't want too much of it to break our demod.

Filler types was of "bool" type, which prevented it from taking values greter
than 1. And RAND filler type has integer value of 2, which was casted to 1 on
assigning, which led to a normal filler table being used instead of the RAND
one.

Add stop and restart capability through the POWEROFF and POWERON
commands. Calling stop causes receive streaming to cease, and I/O
threads to shutdown leaving only the control handling thread running.
Upon receiving a POWERON command, I/O threads and device streaming are
restarted.
Proper shutdown of the transceiver is now initiated by the destructor,
which calls the stop command internally to wind down and deallocate
threads.

Burst selection at a particular time works in the following order
of priority.
1. Slot is disabled with channel combination set to NONE (default)
1. Burst exists in priority queue for the current time.
2. Filler table entry is used
This patch sets default behaviour to force all filler table entries
to zero and disallows filler table changes. This effectively means
that only bursts received from upper layers will be transmitted and
nothing will be automatically transmitted in the absence or delay
of incoming burts at a particular time.
New Command line option "Enable C0 filler table" allows reverting
to previous idle burst generation and retransmission behaviour on
TRX0. Retransmission cannot be enabled on non-C0 channels.

of relevant parameters. Database configuration table still exists
(and must exist because of the global gConfig object), but can
be bypassed with command line options.

Each ARFCN channel may be independently configureted and possibly on
separate hardware, so don't share a single vector for noise estimate
calculations. Allow a non-pointer based iterator so we can get away
with using the default copy constructor.

Separate the large pullRadioVector() call, which forms the central
portion of the receive path burst processing. Break out RACH, normal
burst, and demodulation into separate methods. This makes the burst
handling from the FIFO read to soft bit output somewhat more
manageable.

This patch allows multiple signalVectors to be stored within
a single radioVector object. The motivation is to provide
a facility for diversity and/or MIMO burst handling. When
no channel value is specified, single channel bevhaviour
is maintained.

The transceiver and underlying device drivers are threaded. use
the following priority levels.
0.50 - UHD driver internal threads
0.45 - Receive device drive thread
0.44 - Transmit device drive thread
0.43 - UHD asynchronous update thread (error reporting)
0.42 - Receive burst processing thread(s)

This patch primarily addresses devices with multiple RF front end
support. Currently device support is limited to UmTRX.
Vectorize transceiver variables to allow multiple asynchronous
threads on the upper layer with single downlink and uplink threads
driving the UHD I/O interface synchronously.

Collect the slot information into an indpendent state object. This
will allow us to easily create multiple instances of internal state
variables without having to replicate the transceiver object itself.

For multiple transceiver connections, it is inappropriate to
allocate all sockets in the transceiver constructor due to not
knowing how many connections are avaialble in advance and for
error checking purposes. Instead, store the base socket address
port combination and setup the sockets in the initialization
call.

Previous removal of the energy detector requirement broke
the noise level calculation loop. The previous adaptive
approach was finicky - noticably at high gain levels. Since
we no longer use the energy threshold for primary burst gating,
we can return to a simpler world.
In the new approach, we compute a running average of energy
levels and track them with a noise vector. A timeslot that
passes the correlator threshold is a valid burst. These are
not used in the noise calculation. Everything else is
considered noise and used to compute the noise level with
respect to full scale input level, which for almost all
supported devices is 2^15.

This patch applies oversampling, when selected with 4 sps,
to the downlink only, while running the receiver with
minimal sampling at 1 sps. These split sample rates allow
us to run a highly accurate downlink signal with minimal
distortion, while keeping receive path channel filtering
on the FPGA.
Without this patch, we oversample the receive path and
require a steep receive filter to get similar adjacent
channel suppression as the FPGA halfband / CIC filter
combination, which comes with a high computational cost.

This patch primarily addresses observed repeated overrun
conditions in embedded environments - namely ARM.
The heartbeat of the transceiver is derived from the receive
sample stream, which drives the main GSM clock. Detach the
transmit thread from the receive loop to avoid interfering with
the receive I/O, which is sensitive to overrun conditions if
pull process is interrupted.

There is no reason expose the pulse shaping filter outside of the
signal processing calls. The main transceiver object makes no use
of the filter and there's no reason to pass it around.
Initialize the pulse shape with the signal processing library, and
maintain an internal static member like many of the other library
variables. Similarly destroy the object when the library is closed.
