The UE had a list of known UEs. With the introduction of a separate
module for F1 UE ID handling that is also used in monolithic (to
separate CU UE ID from DU UE ID), this functionality is not needed, and
deleted in this commit.
Previously, the F1AP handler called various functions directly, instead
of sending an ITTI message to the RRC thread. This has two drawbacks:
- it can lead to data races if the RRC task uses functionality that is
being accessed by the F1 task through this function
- no homogeneity: all other handlers send an ITTI message, so this one
should too
- The CU/DU UE ID is used in DL RRC Message Transfer
- Note: The CU UE ID currently is still the RNTI
- on every DL RRC Message, the DU verifies that the UE exists
- Refactor RRC: common function to forward protected SRB PDUs
The RRC uses gNB_ue_ngap_id as its primary ID; the following commits
will introduce the usage of the (F1) gNB CU UE ID. This commits renames
the gNB_ue_ngap_id to rrc_ue_id to better reflect its usage as the RRC's
primary UE ID.
It will be used as the NGAP and F1 (CU) UE IDs.
for reusing the old UE Context after reestablishment: we have to free a
UE context, but that also free's the RA process that we still need.

Is this necessary?
For FR2 and including analog beamforming, we control the beams via GPIO
on radio units.
In this commit, introduce a configuration option to switch the GPIO
control for different devices: "generic" is the current GPIO control,
"interdigital" configures the GPIO configuration to be used with an
InterDigital device.
The RLC tests were not compiling because of the include of
openair2/RRC/NR/rrc_gNB_radio_bearers.h
by
openair2/LAYER2/nr_rlc/nr_rlc_entity.h
which does not seem correct/necessary to start with.
The only thing needed by nr_rlc_entity.h from rrc_gNB_radio_bearers.h
is MAX_DRBS_PER_UE which can be defined in common/platform_constants.h
like NGAP_MAX_PDU_SESSION.
