ggsn: use libosmocore tundev API to create apn tun device

This way we can start dropping old osmo-ggsn specific API, avoiding duplication of code. Moreover, the osmo-ggsn code is using older ioctl APIs, which are discouraged nowadays in favour of netlink, which osmo_tundev/osmo_netdev from libosmocore is used. Even better, we win for free non-blocking write behavior in the tundev when switching to the new API, since it already has its own internal wqueue.

While doing this, BSD code is dropped since anyway it's not been maintained for a long time. If needed, the BSD support can be added to libosmocore osmo_tundev/osmo_netdev API.

This is a first step (already working). Follow-up commits will replace the APIs to set up routes and addresses, and later on osmo-ggsn will win support to set MTU on the interface.

Furthermore, this will allow easily adding netns support to osmo-ggsn later on if ever needed.
