ctrl: add subscriber.by-*.imsi GET-able variable

There may be a need in various OsmoCNI-attached entities (for example,
external SMSC implementations) to perform a mapping from known MSISDN
to unknown IMSI, querying OsmoHLR subscriber db for it.  Querying for
subscriber.by-msisdn-*.imsi will be much more efficient (and easier on
client-side implementors) than querying for subscriber.by-msisdn-*.info
and fishing the IMSI out of the long multiline response, discarding all
other irrelevant info.

osmo-hlr - Osmocom HLR Implementation

This repository contains a C-language implementation of a GSM Home Location Register (HLR). It is part of the Osmocom Open Source Mobile Communications project.

Warning: While the HLR logical functionality is implemented, OsmoHLR does not use the ETSI/3GPP TCAP/MAP protocol stack. Instead, a much simpler custom protocol (GSUP) is used. This means, OsmoHLR is of no use outside the context of an Osmocom core network. You can use it with OsmoMSC, OsmoSGSN etc. - but not with third party components.
