Summary0007112: allow different syntax for binary string types
DescriptionIt is very often a hassle to convert a binary representation taken from some other tool into a TTCN-3 octestsring or bitstring.

In normal representations, there are often spaces allowed between groups of digits or there are prefixes like 0x or 0b in front of some digit groups.

It would be very convenient if such a representation could be used directly in TTCN-3 as well so that no conversion would be necessary anymore.

Also, the strings can thus be structured and made more readable. Better readability almost always improves the quality of code.

Minimally, allowing spaces would be sufficient. For convenience sake allowing newlines and 0x/0b prefixes would be a bonus.

 STF discussion 03-08-2015: Agreed to allow spaces. Analyse also possible introduction of alternative syntaxes.

 following the discussion the uploaded file considers spaces and newlines, but not 0x/0b prefixes.

 Please check the uploaded proposed solution for correctness.

 Small amendment, the newline shall consist of 'any combination of the newline characters that constitute a newline' (i.e. under windows CR LF is just ONE newline). Known combinations (to me) are: CR LF (windows), LF (linux), CR (macos). Maybe this should be reflected in the BNF rule.

NLChar ::= CR [LF] | LF | VT

 final rewording to consider windows newlines (CR LF)
