Hi,

I have made some changes in how the Location Area Identification is decoded. I
used the routines from packet-e212 so that the MCC and MNC parts are translated
into country and operator name respectively.

Also I changed the text that is appended, from only the LAC to MCC/MNC/LAC. I
searched if there is a canonical way to write this triplet and even though
there are no explicit instructions, in TS 31.121 these 3 values are presented
separated by slashes.

The reason that I made this change is that (at least for me) it is
easier/faster for the user to get all the LAI information without having to
expand the subtree.
