TRX: Add VTY option to allow setting RTS advance in frames

RTS (ready-to-send) must be issued in advance, so BTS core and especially
osmo-pcu can provide downlink data frames early enough. In some cases PCU
might provide frames too late, so they must be dropped. If PCU provides
frames too late, due to high system load, this "RTS advance" setting must
be increased.
