* !2707 NR UE Cell Search
* !2722 add initial NTN support for gNB
* !2694 Handle and use Linux capabilities, logging improvements, cleanup, documentation
* !2569 Neighbour Configuration - Measurement Configuration

Neighbor configuration can be given by gNB.conf

get_MeasConfig function is extended as it will prepare A2 / A3 Report
Configs. Single Meas Obj is used for all.

rrc_gNB_process_MeasurementReport function is extended to process A2 /
A3 measurement events.  helper functions are written to fetch neighbour
cell informations from sequence containers.
(get_neighbour_cell_information, get_neighbour_config)

- neighbour_config.conf file includes neighbour and measurement related parameters
Neighbour List:
 - nr_cellid: the identity of existing cell who has neighbour
 - neighbour_cell_configuration(list): includes the identity parameters
   of the neighbour cell such:
    - gNBID (incase of N2 Handover / to be identified from AMF)
    - nr_cell_id (target gNB needs to consider)
    - physical_cellId (needed for measurement reporting)
    - absoluteFrequencySSB (needed for measurement reporting)
    - subcarrierSpacing (needed for measurement reporting)
    - plmn / tracking area code (incase of N2 Handover / needed for AMF
      to identify / allow HO)

NR Measurement Configuration
 - Periodical
    - enable (default is 0, 1 enables the reporting)
    - includeBeamMeasurements, maxNrOfRS_IndexesToReport (configurable
      reporting parameters)
 - A2
    - enable (default is 0, 1 enables the reporting)
    - threshold , timeToTrigger (configurable reporting parameters)
 - A3
    - cell_id (the nr_cellid of neighbour cell. So this A3 parameters
      will be used for the neighbour
        - [-1] means default. so it can be applied to any neighbour if
          there is no specific config
        - Neighbour specific A3 Threshold can be used or default can be
          selected depending to the neighbour planning
        - The neighbour-config.conf specifies, apply default A3 for
          neighbours 3 and 4 | apply specific one for neighbour 2

    - offset, hysteresis, timeToTrigger (configurable reporting parameters)

the neighbour_config.conf can be included in the gNB.conf file. Example
is given: gnb.sa.band78.106prb.rfsim.neighbour.conf

A sequence array container is used for neighbour cell configuration. RRC
structure has this container.  A Measurement configuration structure is
defined. This structure has Periodical / A2 Event structures and also a
sequence container for A3 Event List.

These structures are filled during the initialization. While F1 Setup
Response is coming from DU to CU, the intra frequency / inter frequency
neighbour decision is given for the existing cell. Also new neighbours
could be added here if needed.

The functions are needed in a later commit in both rrc_gNB_du.c and
rrc_gNB.c, so move to the rrc_gNB_du.c file concerned with DUs (cells).

With the capabilities now given as part of this MR, it happens that when
checking the "docker compose config", the container_name might not be
close to the service name. Something like

  service:
    cap_drop:
      ...
    cap_add:
      ...
    container_name:

This is inconvenient, as the previous grep for the service name + 3
lines might not cover the service name. To circumvent this, give the
service name directly in "docker compose config". (no clue why it has
not been done like this from the start)

- sa_b200_gnb
- sa_aw2s_gnb
- sa_e1_b200
- sa_f1_b200
- sa_sc_b200_gnb
- nsa_b200_gnb

By default, the container has no access to /dev. Mount all USB devices
into the container to ease usability: by default, USB devices are
mounted under /dev/bus/usb using the bus ID, which is different on every
system and might change on reboots or with (un-)plugging USB devices.
Hence, mount all USB; the process has not many capabilities anyway, and
thus might not do much harm.

A proper solution would be to write a udev rule to mount a device using
its vendor and product ID, and only mount the corresponding device into
the container.

Give SYS_NICE and IPC_LOCK for performance. On the UE side, give
NET_ADMIN (for interface bringup) and NET_RAW (for ping an TUN).

We give NET_ADMIN (for interface bringup) and NET_RAW (for ping).
IPC_LOCK and SYS_NICE are intentionally left out to verify the
softmodems run without.

It might be desirable to run the UE without superuser rights. More
concretely, it might run without NET_ADMIN. In this case, various
corresponding operations on the TUN socket fd might fail. In this
commit,

- improve error reports to make them more clear
- do not automatically exit(1), but return from the function to ensure
  continuity of the softmodem

Use common threadCreate() function to create P7 thread with high(er)
priority. Remove old calls to set_priority(), as this is already done
with threadCreate().

Use common threadCreate() function to create P7 thread with high(er)
priority. Remove old calls to set_priority(), as this is already done
with threadCreate().

The main thread of nr-uesoftmodem (executing main()) is mostly working;
it is thus not necessary to set high priority. Instead, the threads
created with threadCreate() will receive higher priority, if possible
(as determined by the availability of SYS_NICE capability).

To inform if SYS_NICE is not present, print a warning in main().

SYS_NICE is a capability that allows a process to set thread affinity
and priority, among other things (see capabilities(7) for more info).

In this commit, add a function that allows to determine if the process
has this capability, and try to change the thread affinity and priority,
if requested. If the capability does not exist, the function will simply
not attempt to change the corresponding thread attributes.

To determine if the process has SYS_NICE, libcap can be used. However,
it might not be installed by default. To avoid requiring another
dependency, if we detect that libcap is not present, use a workaround by
try to set a real-time scheduling policy; if it's present, or can be
changed, we assume that the process has SYS_NICE (and clean up, if
relevant).

Simplify reading of capabilities

A later commit in this series adds performance tuning tips, which
includes the call made in RFsim until this commit.

set_latency_target() attempts to set keep "low latency" by
- writing a specific latency to /dev/cpu_dma_latency
- setting manually the minimum CPU processor frequency to be the maximum

There is no functionality to undo this after stopping the softmodem(s),
and most users are probably not even aware that OAI does this. It is
generally preferable to set this beforehand using a governor or by
disabling sleep states (as outlined in the tutorial, and in a follow-up
commit in the performance tuning docs).

The previous mlockall() call, to lock memory to RAM, is retained in a
new function. There were additional mlockall() calls, which have been
replaced with lock_memory_to_ram(), where necessary.

It's completely unclear what this is supposed to do.

Print a clear error if a config file does not exist (unclear previously,
when the user would get a confusing, unspecific, "file I/O error" on
line 0)

I tried to free the memory that had been allocated at that point, and
verified that using the address sanitizer. Nevertheless, the function
does too much, and is too complicated for refactoring.

Use correct baseTag for Unit Tests build in execution:
- if build_helper or othe files changed, which would trigger rebuild of
  ran-base, use the corresponding ci-temp tag
- use that tag consistently afterwards
