By default, powering on/off a parent transceiver (child_idx=0) will
automatically power on/off its child transceivers (if any). This
behavior is desirable for the BTS, but not for the MS Transceivers.
Additional MS Transceivers are going to be used by ttcn3-bts-test
for spawning multiple DCCH components in parallel. We don't want
situations when one component powers off transceivers of the other
DCCH components - they must be independent.

Remove the paragraph about writing to the Free Software Foundation's
mailing address. The FSF has changed addresses in the past, and may do
so again. In 2021 this is not useful, let's rather have a bit less
boilerplate at the start of source files.

I intentionally do not use 'Downlink' and 'Uplink' terms in this project
because both MS and BTS transmit and receive on the opposite directions.
A burst coming from demodulator may be a Downlink or an Uplink burst
depending on the context, so we definitely need more precise terms.
Back then when I started to work on TRX toolkit, I decided to use the
'TRX2L1' and 'L12TRX' for receive and transmit directions respectively.
Now I find them hard to read, so let's replace them with 'Rx' and 'Tx'.

TRX Toolkit is still backwards compatible with Python2, but Python3
does much better in terms of performance. Also, on Debian Stretch
that is used as a base for our Docker images, Python 2.7 is still
the default. Let's require Python3 in shebang.

In order to reflect the UL/DL delay caused by the premature burst
scheduling (a.k.a. 'fn-advance') in a virtual environment, the
Transceiver implementation now queues all to be transmitted bursts,
so they remain in the queue until the appropriate time of transmission.
The API user is supposed to call recv_data_msg() in order to obtain
a L12TRX message on the TRXD (data) inteface, so it gets queued by
this function. Then, to ensure the timeous transmission, the user
of this implementation needs to call clck_tick() on each TDMA
frame. Both functions are thread-safe (queue mutex).
In a multi-trx configuration, the use of queue additionally ensures
proper burst aggregation on multiple TRXD connections, so all L12TRX
messages are guaranteed to be sent in the right order, i.e. with
monolithically-increasing TDMA frame numbers.
Of course, this change increases the overall CPU usage, given that
each transceiver gets its own queue, and we need to serve them all
on every TDMA frame. According to my measurements, when running
test cases from ttcn3-bts-test, the average load is ~50% higher
than what it used to be. Still not significantly high, though.

By default RSSI on the Rx side is computed based on transmitter's
tx power and then substracting the the Rx path loss.
If FAKE_RSSI is used, then the values in there are used instead.
A default hardcoded value of tx nominal power = 50 dBm is set to keep
old behavior of RSSI=-60dB after calculations.

Since TRXD header version 1, we should send NOPE indications to the
L1 side in absence of TRX2L1 bursts, and IDLE indications during
IDLE TDMA frames (basically noise measurements).
This change is the first step towards the goal: if a given burst
is to be dropped due to the path loss simulation (see FAKE_DROP),
mark the carrier TRX2L1 message as NOPE.ind and send anyway.

The burst transformation in BurstForwarder.forward_msg() used to be
done only once, so then the resulting message was distributed over
the list of connected (and active) transceivers.
This approach limits the path loss simulation capabilities, because
a reference to the same message is passed to FakeTRX.send_data_msg().
If one transceiver changes (or removes) the burst bits, the other
transceivers would not receive the original message.
Let's do the transformation individually for each transceiver,
so the original message will always remain unchanged.

C/I (Carrier-to-Interference ratio) is a value in cB (centiBels),
computed from the training sequence of each received burst,
by comparing the "ideal" training sequence with the received one.
This change introduces a new command similar to FAKE_TOA and FAKE_RSSI,
so it can be used by TTCN-3 test case 'TC_pcu_data_ind_lqual_cb' to
verify that the link quality measurements are delivered to the PCU.

Since the new TRXD header format has been introduced, FakeTRX needs
to be able to fill it correctly. In particular, the following:
- Modulation, which can be determined from the burst length;
- Training Sequence Code (and set), which needs to be detected
by comparing the burst bits of L12TRX message against known
training sequences (only GMSK and the default TS set for now);
- C/I (Carrier-to-Interference ratio), which can be simulated
later on, as instructed on the TRXC interface ('FAKE_CI').
The actual TRXD header version is stored in the instance of class
DATAInterface. By default (at startup), legacy version 0 is used.
The version negotiation is supposed to be performed on the TRXC
interface, and to be implemented in a follow-up change.
Different Transceivers may use different header versions, thus in
FakeTRX.send_data_msg() we need to override the original version
of the L12TRX message, and generate the corresponding PDU.
Limitations:
- NOPE / IDLE indications are not (yet) supported;
- TSC detection: GMSK modulation only.

Since fake_trx.py can handle multiple transceivers, it may be useful
to name transceivers. If transceiver has some name, it will appear
in logging messages, for example:
[INFO] transceiver.py:104 Init transceiver 'BTS@127.0.0.1:5700'
[INFO] transceiver.py:104 Init transceiver 'MS@127.0.0.1:6700'
[INFO] transceiver.py:104 Init transceiver '127.0.0.1:5700/1'
This change additionally assigns names to the both default
transceivers, and extends the '--trx' option with ability
to specify some name, for example:
--trx foo@127.0.0.1:5700 or --trx bar@127.0.0.1:5700/1
--trx ipv6@[2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334]:6700

Since fake_trx.py can handle multiple transceivers, it makes sense
to print some info in logging messages about transceivers they
belong to. This acvieved by defining __str__() for Transceiver.

There should be no code in run() that does initialization,
__init__() is the best place for this. This change allows
to import the Application class from fake_trx.py, and
run it from script (e.g. for testing).

Since Ice44e2b22566b3652ef6d43896055963b13ab185 is merged, the class
hierarchy has become much more flexible, so it's possible to create
multiple Transceiver / FakeTRX instances and distribute bursts using
a single instance of BurstForwarder.
This change introduces a new command line option, that can be used
to specify additional transceivers. Please note that fake_trx.py
still initializes a pair of BTS and BB transceivers by default.
The new option has the following format:
--trx REMOTE_ADDR:BASE_PORT[/TRX_NUM]
Some examples for IPv4 and IPv6:
--trx 127.0.0.1:5703
--trx [2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334]:6703
If optional TRX_NUM > 0 is specified, e.g.:
--trx 127.0.0.1:5700/1
then this transceiver is considered as a child of another one.
See I7e97b7f32dde7ab74779133e9d7504f1d0fce60c for details.

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.

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.

Previous hardcoded default of 0.0.0.0 was inappropiate in some
scenarios, as it sets the SRC addr of the packets sent through the
socket based on the routing.
For instance, if iface IF1 has assigned two IP addresses A and B,
A being the first addr of the interface, and osmo-bts-trx is
configured with "osmotrx ip local A" and "osmotrx ip remote B",
the following happens:
CMD POWER OFF src=A:5801 dst=B:5701
RSP POWER OFF src=A:5701 dst=A:5701 <-- A is assigned as src addr.
But osmo-bts-trx is waiting for packets from B:5701, and the packet
is dropped with ICMP Unreachable. If addr binding is forced in
fake_trx to B, then everthing's fine.
Let's extend the UDPLink in order to allow manual, but optional
setting of bind address, and add a corresponding cmdline
argument to all executables.
