[FEATURE] free5GC Rel-17 data model

[yoursunny]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
PacketRusher is currently using free5gc/nas v1.1.3 and free5gc/ngap v1.0.8.
The latest versions are free5gc/nas v1.1.4 and free5gc/ngap v1.0.9.

Describe the solution you'd like
PacketRusher should upgrade to use free5gc/nas v1.1.4 and free5gc/ngap v1.0.9, but it contains breaking changes.

Describe alternatives you've considered
PacketRusher could stay with the previous version and not take advance of upcoming changes in free5GC libraries.

Additional context
I pulled the upgrades but it upgraded free5gc/openapi from v1.0.8 to v1.0.9-0.20250102055216-bb5814d1e736.
That version comes from their feat/r17 branch: https://github.com/free5gc/openapi/tree/bb5814d1e736dfd65232e717ff2199a395e95847
This in turn causes the following errors in PacketRusher:

Please suggest whether PacketRusher should attempt this upgrade or stay with release-16.

Hi @yoursunny!

Yes PacketRusher can be upgraded to the free5gc Rel-17 data model.

Thanks :-)

Upon further inspection, I found many more breaking changes under aio5gc folder.
I don't have enough knowledge about NAS, so that I will not attempt the upgrade myself.

No problem, I'll do it, it's on my todo-list!

Thanks,
Valentin
