this patch refactors the MAC PDU class, the main changes are:
* add to_string() method to pretty print PDU and subheaders
This allows to have a single log entry per MAC PDU with all its
contents.
It removes the C-style fprint() method
* Simplity payload vs. w_payload_ce
Before we've used payload when reading the PDU and w_payload_ce
as a buffer when writing. In all getters we needed to differentiate
between both. Now payload points to w_payload_ce initially and is
only updated when parsing a new PDU.
* add various helpers, e.g. to get subheader index, update a BSR, ..
* fix PDU test to use new to_string() method
simplify logic to check whether a BSR fits and, if so, which type.
before the check has been done in two places.
we now also accomodate for the CE subheader size.
with the B210 and 2 RF ports, i.e. MIMO mode, we have stopped the
Rx stream after changing the rx_samp_rate but didn't start it again.
Either the issue doesn't exist in SISO mode or we never saw it but for MIMO
it can be reproduced easily with rate changes during streaming, i.e.:
$ ./lib/src/radio/test/benchmark_radio -p 2 -t 10 -x -y -s 23.04e6

it fixes#1623.
this happens more often with MIMO since lates are more likely here.
after a late, the Rx stream must not be stopped on the B2xx either.

before the BSR was extracted but the actual index (between 0 and 63)
was not stored but directly converted into bytes.
for log parsing and debugging it is easier to follow the index
value. this patch therefore adds both values to the log message
and extends the API accordingly.
