fix phy simulators build Pb: move snr_dB global to simulation code, add a channel mode section in configuration for snr_dB ,add a parameter flag in the config module to allow omitting prefix when modifying a parameter (for compatibility of -s option)

- `PARAMFLAG_DISABLECMDLINE`: parameter cannot be modified via the command line

- `PARAMFLAG_NOFREE`: do not free the memory possibly allocated by the config module to store the value of the parameter. Default behavior is for the config module to free the memory it has allocated when the `config_end` function is called.

## utility functions and macros
The configuration module also defines APIs to access the `paramdef_t` and `configmodule_interface_t` fields. They are listed in the configuration module [include file `common/config/config_userapi.h`](https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/blob/develop/common/config/config_userapi.h)

# `paramlist_def_t`structure
It is defined in include file [ common/config/config_paramdesc.h ](https://gitlab.eurecom.fr/oai/openairinterface5g/blob/develop/common/config/config_paramdesc.h#L160).
It is used as an argument to `config_getlist` calls, to get values of multiple occurrences of group of parameters.
