Unify SIB container handling by introducing a typed SIB enum and storing
SIB payloads as byte_array_t across common NR types, F1AP helpers, MAC,
and RRC DU setup code.
Changes:
- Include byte_array support in nr_common.h, add nr_sib_type_t (NR_SIB_1–NR_SIB_21),
and change nr_SIBs_t to hold only nr_sib_type_t SIB_type.
- Switch f1ap_sib_msg_t in f1ap_messages_types.h to use a byte_array_t SI_container
instead of raw pointer and length fields.
- Update F1AP encode/decode, equality, copy, and free helpers in
f1ap_interface_management.c to work on SI_container.buf / SI_container.len and
use eq_byte_array, copy_byte_array, and free_byte_array.
- Adapt F1AP tests in f1ap_lib_test.c to build and inspect SIB containers via
SI_container.buf and SI_container.len.
- Replace magic SIB numbers with nr_sib_type_t values in gnb_config.c
(get_sys_info and fill_du_sibs) to validate and configure DU SIBs.
- Rework nr_mac_configure_other_sib in NR_MAC_gNB/config.c to decode SIB2
from a byte_array_t container, fix freeing by releasing the decoded sib2 on
failure, and use NR_SIB_2 / NR_SIB_19 for CU/DU SIB selection.
- Add an add_si_msg helper in rrc_gNB_du.c and refactor the SIB2 branch of
rrc_gNB_process_f1_setup_req to populate cell->SI_msg from encoded local
byte array while iterating SIBs with FOR_EACH_SEQ_ARR.

This commit centralizes equality-check behavior and removes duplicated
macro implementations across protocol stacks.
Major changes:
- add `common/utils/eq_check.h` with shared `_EQ_CHECK_*`,
`EQ_CHECK_GENERIC`, and optional-IE pointer helpers
- replace E1AP/F1AP/NAS local equality macros and call sites with
the shared helpers
- remove duplicated layer-specific error/equality macro definitions from
common headers and switch includes to `eq_check.h`
- update CMake test flags to define `ENABLE_TESTS` for `e1ap_lib`,
and 5GS NAS libraries; drop `E1AP_LOG_ERRORS` - equality-check/error
printing is now consistently controlled by `ENABLE_TESTS`
After introduction of new cell management design, these helper functions
are now only used internally within their respective modules and do not
need to be part of the public API. They are made static and their
declarations are removed from public headers.
Changes:
- f1ap_interface_management.c: Make free_f1ap_cell() and
copy_f1ap_served_cell_info() static
- f1ap_interface_management.h: Remove declarations for the above functions
- rrc_gNB_du.c: Make get_dl_band() and get_ssb_scs() static
- rrc_gNB_du.h: Remove declarations for get_dl_band() and get_ssb_scs()
* Commit applies to Setup Request, CU/DU Configuration Update
* Set standard compliant max number of cells per DU
* Allocate large lists on the heap to prevent stack overflow
due to the large size
* Update relevant free functions
* Also, fix bug in eq_f1ap_cu_configuration_update
Also, improve comments in struct definition.
While implementing NRPPA-related F1AP messages, we remarked that
extension field "UL-AoA-ExtIEs" needs to be OPTIONAL (e.g., in NRPPA it
is optional in the OAI-compiled version), but it was not marked as such.
This later version 16.21.0 fixes this.
F1AP_LIB_FIND_IE() is used to look up elements in a list, but was
hitherto hardcoded to use "protocolIEs" as an intermediate struct. A
follow-up commit will use this macro where we don't have protocolIEs,
but "iE_Extensions". Hence, modify to make it work for that case (and
others) as well.
- encode all SI containers the encoding function gets (it's not the
encoding function's job to enforce semantics)

(Interface Management)")
During refactoring, the previously implemented NSSAI field of the cell
info structure was not written to F1AP ASN.1 structures anymore;
eq_f1ap_cell_info() also conveniently omitted the corresponding equality
check. Add this back so the CU can correctly receive the NSSAI in case
of F1 split operation.
Fixes: f278b00837 ("Add encoding/decoding library for F1AP Setup
Request (Interface Management) ")
Split out these functions, to be reused in a follow-up commit to
correctly have gNB-DU configuration update message working.
Change the return type copy_f1ap_served_cell_info(), to return the copy,
which IMO is more intuitive then passing target and source in
parentheses.
