osmo-bts-trx: Use much lower clock advance values towards PCU and TRX
osmotrx fn-advance (which is the clock_advance variable here) and osmotrx rts-advance together make up the minimum delay the BTS can react to a channel request, etc. The default of 20 are around 92ms which is clearly too much. With modern hardware and using SCHED_RR a lower value should not be an issue. See OS#4487 for some related measurements on more CPU-limited devices like a LimeNet-micro3.
