If we go this way (backwards compatibility), we would have to keep both 
`PCU_IF_MSG_DATA_CNF` and `PCU_IF_MSG_DATA_CNF_DT` as well as both 
`PCU_IF_SAPI_PCH` and `PCU_IF_SAPI_{AGCH->PCH}_DT` in the protocol definition. 
There would still be two ways of doing the same thing (sending data over PCH), 
what renders the idea of bumping the PCUIF version equal to having a flag in 
the `INFO.ind`. "Here we go again".

We could use this version bump chance to clean up the protocol a bit and make 
life easier for those who will be working on the PCUIF in the future and trying 
to understand what message does what.

I don't really want to block getting this work merged, and will better stop 
adding even more comments/nitpicks. But I really don't see the benefits of 
making version 0x0b backwards compatible with 0x0a, given that the patch for 
osmo-bts is already in Gerrit and upgrading osmo-bsc to 0x0b is not going to 
take too much effort either...
