From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo at soleta.eu>

Iridium is a satellite network which operates a GPRS-like that allows you to
get speeds up to 128kbit/s. However, it takes from 5 to 6 secs to get the
bandwidth allocated, so the conversation is garbled during the time.

This patch uses the new dummy padding support in libosmo-netif that is
controlled through the osmux osmux_xfrm_input_open_circuit().

This includes a new VTY option for osmux.
