Osmocom_CTRL: counters: return -1 for absent objects

Teach the CTRL functions that retrieve rate counters to return counters
of -1 when a requested object is not present, instead of erroring and
stopping the test. Like this we can expect absence of an object.

Upcoming patch Ibec009203d38f65714561b7c28edbdbd8b34e704 uses this.

hnbgw: TC_hnb_disconnected_timeout

Test the new timer hnbgw X35: discard all hnb_persistent state after a
given timeout.

While a hnb_persistent is present, its rate_ctrs and stat_items remain
present. When it is discarded, these vanish again. Use this to verify
that discarding and re-registering a hnb_persistent works.

Set X35 to five seconds, drop the Iuh link, wait and verify that the
rate counter group for the hnb_persistent is gone.

Then reconnect and disconnect again, to provoke errors like
use-after-free.
