This commit introduces a substitute module library for setting up softmodems using YAML instead of libconfig.
The softmodems should work the same with both types of files. Extra care was put to make sure the behavior
of both modules is the same.

Example yaml config files were added for the UE and gNB

chore(ci): CI Infrastructure Refactoring: Streamlining Deployment function, Logging, and docker images

See merge request oai/openairinterface5g!2770

- Introduced additional helper functions: CopyinContainerLog, GetRunningServices, CheckLogs.

- Introduced helper functions: GetCredentials, GetContainerName, GetImageInfo, GetContainerHealth, ReTagImages, DeployServices.

XML file changed accordingly

Create_Workspace is used used in XML files instead of directly being
executed in DeployObject(). This can be problematic if we deploy
multiple services on the same host, since a previous workspace will be
deleted. Also, it removes futile git clones.

There are other XML steps (CppCheckAnalysis, LicenceAndFormattingCheck,
BuildImage, BuildProxy, BuildClusterImage) that implicitly called
Create_Workspace. Those calls have been removed and care has been taken
to insert the corresponding Create_Workspace steps in the XML.

It can be set using nodes and svr_node tags in xml files

Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/NR_UE_MAC_PHY_separation_improvements' into integration_2024_w35

At least in Eurecom, there are no RHEL 7/CentOS 7+8 servers. Existing
installations will work, but we don't want to encourage people to use
these old distributions, so remove it. Also, they reached EOL

Add CentOS stream as an alternative.

In the past, it seemed that we had to add a trailing slash (/) after the
OpenShift Registry URI. Now, at least on the CI machine matix, this
makes it fail:

    INFO: oc whoami -t | docker login -u oaicicd --password-stdin default-route-openshift-image-registry.apps.oai.cs.eurecom.fr/
    INFO: docker pull default-route-openshift-image-registry.apps.oai.cs.eurecom.fr/oaicicd-ran/oai-gnb:develop-46a1d2a6
    WARNING: command "docker pull default-route-openshift-image-registry.apps.oai.cs.eurecom.fr/oaicicd-ran/oai-gnb:develop-46a1d2a6" returned non-zero returncode 1: output:
    Error response from daemon: Head "https://default-route-openshift-image-registry.apps.oai.cs.eurecom.fr/v2/oaicicd-ran/oai-gnb/manifests/develop-46a1d2a6": unauthorized: authentication required

Remove the trailing slash makes it work, like so:

    INFO: oc whoami -t | docker login -u oaicicd --password-stdin default-route-openshift-image-registry.apps.oai.cs.eurecom.fr
    INFO: docker pull default-route-openshift-image-registry.apps.oai.cs.eurecom.fr/oaicicd-ran/oai-gnb:develop-46a1d2a6

The docker pull succeeds.

Some strange behavior may happen if write() to the rfsim socket fails.
Let's print some error, can be useful in case of problem.

It is very possible that the operating system returns a file
descriptor bigger than the size of bridge->buf (MAX_FD_RFSIMU, which
is 250 as of now). As a minimum, let's fail if the socket file
descriptor is out of bounds.

A proper solution may be implemented later, if needed.
