vty: Allow modifying default msclass
Until now, if timeslot resources where being allocated for an MS whose msclass is not known, msclass=12 was being selected. While it's true that msclass=12 is quite a usual one implemented by phones (Rx=4, Rx=4, Sum=5), some MS implementations may not support such modes. As a result, if the PCU allocates a TBF for an MS which its msclass is not known (eg. because it used 1-phase access aka no Pkt Res Req), then a minimal msclass=1 should be assumed. Otherwise, it may assign more multislots than the MS can handle, and will work incorrectly since an amount of RLC/MAC blocks won't be sent/received properly. With the existing code base, changing the default MSCLASS to 1 would, however, create a worse user experiencie for the vast majority of devices (which are msclass >= 12). The code should be improved to first use only 1 TS until the MS CLASS is known, and at that point reallocate resources and re-assign them (eg. RECONFIGURE TBF rlc/mac ctrl blk). So, for now, simply add a hidden VTY config to allow changing the default assumed MS Class, so that operators wishing to support all devices can eg. set it to 1.
