hodec2: fix congestion resolution on dyn TS
For handover algorithm 2, properly figure out what effects the target cell will see for the *other* TCH kind when a handover would occupy a dynamic timeslot. Before this, only TCH/F or TCH/H would be regarded at a time. This introduces detection of whether a dynamic timeslot would be occupied by a handover, and how losing one unused dynamic timeslot affects the congestion situation for the TCH kind that is not targeted by the handover. In other words, if a handover to TCH/F causes congestion in TCH/H because of a dynamic timeslot becoming occupied, the handover will not be performed. Before this, oscillation situations could occur. A subsequent patch will do the same for congestion balancing. Related: SYS#5297 Change-Id: I1536b60f03cb0aeb6ba14a72b518aec82fa572fe
