add gsm0808_cell_{id,id_list}_name() and friends

Provide comprehensive API to obtain string representations of Cell Identifiers
and -Lists.

Change gsm0808_test.c to use the new functions (which simplifies the output a
bit), so that we don't duplicate printing code in gsm0808_test.c, and so that
the not-so-trivial printing code is also tested.

In gsm0808_test, also test gsm0808_cell_id_list_name_buf()'s return value and
truncation behavior.

The rationale for gsm0808_cell_id_list_name(), i.e. printing an entire list of
cell identifiers, is that even though the maximum is 127 elements, a list of
more than a few elements is hardly ever expected in practice (even more than
one element isn't actually expected: either "entire BSS" or a single LAC). It
is thus useful to log the entire list when it shows up in Paging and Handover.

libosmocore - set of Osmocom core libraries

This repository contains a set of C-language libraries that form the core infrastructure of many Osmocom Open Source Mobile Communications projects.

Historically, a lot of this code was developed as part of the OpenBSC project, but which are of a more generic nature and thus useful to (at least) other programs that we develop in the sphere of Free Software / Open Source mobile communications.

There is no clear scope of it. We simply move all shared code between the various Osmocom projects in this library to avoid code duplication.

The libosmcoore.git repository build multiple libraries:

  • libosmocore contains some general-purpose functions like select-loop abstraction, message buffers, timers, linked lists
  • libosmovty contains routines related to the interactive command-line interface called VTY
  • libosmogsm contains definitions and helper code related to GSM protocols
  • libosmoctrl contains a shared implementation of the Osmocom control interface
  • libosmogb contains an implementation of the Gb interface with its NS/BSSGP protocols
  • libosmocodec contains an implementation of GSM voice codecs
  • libosmocoding contains an implementation of GSM channel coding
  • libosmosim contains infrastructure to interface SIM/UICC/USIM cards
  • libosmotrau contains encoding/decoding functions for A-bis TRAU frames
