Added NTN FDD FR1 bands defined in 3GPP TS 38.101-5

Added support for NTN FDD FR1 bands 254, 255, 256 as specified in 3GPP
TS 38.101-5. Example Conf files added for band254 for 15Khz, 5Mhz and
30Khz, 10Mhz configurations. Tested NTN GEO configuration on band 254
using these conf files.

Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/enabling_CSIRS_analog_beamformiing_l1_handling' into integration_2024_w46 (!3036)

Further improvements in analog beam management for CSI-RS

There seem to be randomly occurring deadlocks when running the UE in the
CI. MR !3091 should fix this. While waiting for this, apply a workaround
by increasing the number of worker pools in the UE to 12.

Test for init_RA

A testcase for init_RA function.
The testcase redefines the following functions as stubs:

- nr_mac_rrc_ra_ind
- nr_write_ce_ulsch_pdu
- mac_rlc_data_req
- lockGet_ul_config
- release_ul_config
- remove_ul_config_last_item
- nr_ue_configure_pucch

These stubs can be used to check init_RA behavior

Prevent segfaults in gNB stack

Three fixes for segfaults, discovered while running with many UEs.
See commit messages for more details.

Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/NR_UE_trigger_reestablishment' into integration_2024_w46 (!2777)

NR UE trigger for re-establishment

The implementation in this MR triggers RRC re-establishment at the UE in case
of radio link failure either for out of sync messages from lower layers or in
case maximum number of RLC retransmissions is reached.

* trigger re-establshemnt on DU: reset RLC counters on DRB 1
  for OAI UE, since SRB 1 does not work for lack of periodic
  measurements reports
* how is the re-establishment triggered?
  * a transmission on DRB 1 occurs
  * detection of a mismatch of RLC counters at the UE side
  * max number of RLC retransmissions reached
  * RLF detection
* verify re-establishment on CU: we ping the core from the UE; this
  sends packets on DRB, and because the sequence number mismatches, will
  trigger a reestablishment. We accept in the ping that a couple of
  packets might be lost; after ping is over, reestablishment must be
  done as well (else the ping will already fail).
