pySim/utils.py: fix 3-digit MNC encoding in enc_plmn()
The bug that was attempted to be fixed in [1] actually was in the
encoding API - pySim.utils.enc_plmn(). According to 3GPP TS 31.102,
which points to TS 24.008, the three-digit (E)HPLMN shall be encoded
as shown below (ASCII-art interpretation):
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
| MCC Digit 2 | MCC Digit 1 |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
| MNC Digit 3 | MCC Digit 3 |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
| MNC Digit 2 | MNC Digit 1 |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
while pySim.utils.enc_plmn() would produce the following:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
| MCC Digit 2 | MCC Digit 1 |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
| MNC Digit 1 | MCC Digit 3 |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
| MNC Digit 3 | MNC Digit 2 |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
Initially the _decoding_ API was correct, but then got changed in
[1] to follow buggy pySim's encoding API. As a result, a (E)HPLMN
programmed with pySim-prog.py would look correct if verified by
pySim-read.py, but the actual file content would be wrong.
This situation shows that our 'program-read-match' build verification
approach alone is insignificant. The lack of unit test coverage,
at least for the core parts of the project, makes it possible to have
symmetrical bugs in both encoding and decoding API parts unnoticed.
This problem was found while trying to enable dead unit tests in [3].
Change [1] that introduced a symmetrical bug is reverted in [2].
