!GPRS config: fix long-standing AT+COPS chance hanging bug
There has been a long-standing bug in FreeCalypso going back years:
sometimes in the AT command bring-up sequence of an ACI-only MS,
the AT+COPS command would produce only a power scan followed by
cessation of protocol stack activity (only L1 ADC traces), instead
of the expected network search sequence. This behaviour was seen
in different FC firmware versions going back to Citrine, and seemed
to follow some law of chance, not reliably repeatable.
This bug has been tracked down and found to be specific to !GPRS
configuration, stemming from our TCS2/TCS3 hybrid and reconstruction
of !GPRS support that was bitrotten in TCS3.2/LoCosto version.
ACI module psa_mms.c, needed only for !GPRS, was missing in the TCS3
version and had to be pulled from TCS2 - but as it turns out,
there is a new field in the MMR_REG_REQ primitive that needs to be
set correctly, and that psa_mms.c module is the place where this
initialization needed to be added.

FreeCalypso Luna phone handset UI development platform consists of these 3 components: * A Caramel-type Calypso motherboard, either iWOW DSK or FC Caramel2 * An LCD carrier board, currently using HaoRan HT020K1QC36S LCD module * A 5x5 keyswitch matrix board for the keypad function This Luna is our primary official platform for FreeCalypso phone handset UI development. The UI code we got from TI comes in two interesting versions: * Big color version: 176x220 pixels, 16-bit color * Small B&W version: originally 84x48 pixels, we are extending it to 96x64 pix (Originally there was also a third version, large 176x220 pix B&W, but we find it uninteresting and we've removed it from our supported set. It was really nothing more than a hack to display a minimal-effort derivative of the original small B&W UI on the large D-Sample LCD, so we are not removing anything of any real substance here.) FC Luna hardware is required for anyone who wishes to work on the phone handset UI project in FC Tourmaline: it is the only target platform that can display both versions of our work-in-progress UI firmware. Mot C1xx and other similar phones have small LCDs that can only display the small B&W version of our TI-based UI, and in the Mother's opinion working solely on the smallbw version to the exclusion of the bigcolor version is not acceptable.
