This commit Integrates RTKLIB positioning libraries in a universal PVT
block implementation called RTKLIB_PVT. This results in an improved
positioning accuracy and precision with a wide range of options
(including Precise Point Positioning and ionospheric/troposphreic
models).
Not all the RTKLIB features have been ported. Some of them will be
progressively added. The ported options and how to configure them have
been documented in the website, see
http://gnss-sdr.org/docs/sp-blocks/pvt/
This commit also introduces a multi-band, multi system Observables block
implementation.
Relevant architectural changes that reduce latency and makes
multi-system, multi band signal handling easier.
Redundant blocks have been deleted. Old configurations are automatically
redirected to the new blocks for Observables and PVT, so the commit does
not break any existing configuration. The user should just notice a
relevant improvement in positioning performance.

Rather than changing the index type to uint16_t, I think it would be
better to use the volk_32f_index_max32* functions instead of the 16 bit
counterparts. This ensures backwards compatibility (the index was
previously 32 bit, even if the function name indicated that it was 16
bit) and also, for FFT acquisition we may encounter large FFTs with more
than 65 535 points
instead of volk_malloc, volk_free (which are missing from the volk
version distributed by ubuntu 14.04). Fix the include guard in
volk_gnsssdr_malloc.h
Thanks to @hoernchen
Packages using CMake often use file(GLOB ...) to retrieve a list of
source files. As this is based on readdir(), the resulting file list
is unsorted. A common use case is to pass this list directly to
add_executable or add_library. But as the order is unpredictable, the
binaries are not reproducible (because the order in which the objects
are linked will vary).

Change the initialization of max_dwells in pcps acquisition adpaters
due its value is forced to be 1 in gr_block constructor if boolean
"bit_transition_flag" is set to TRUE
Resolves: #24
Rename "shift_resolution_" variable in some Acquisition adapters to
"doppler_max_" according to its meaning and change "ifreq" to "if"
because the value was not properly read. Delete unused variables.
Resolves: #23
message system. Removing the deprecated channel internal queue and its
references. Some tests that are using the old channel queue are disabled
in this version
(.Acquisition_1C.use_CFAR_algorithm=false) as an option in the
acquisition configuration, it allows setting more stable thresholds in
the presence of non-gaussian front-end noise (which is the usual
behavior of front-ends....)
the post correlation noise floor. If enabled
(.Acquisition_1C.use_CFAR_algorithm=true) as an option in the
acquisition configuration, it allows setting more stable thresholds in
the presence of non-gaussian front-end noise (which is the usual
behavior of front-ends....)
in PCPS_Acquisition (added the _sc variant). Now the PCPS acquisiton
adapter requires no conversion when the receiver works with 16 bits
integer complex samples.
Reduced zero_padding_factor in pcps acquisition
This was 16, I'm processing data at about 16MHz, this oversampling
factor caused memory allocation issues
Previously dump file name was not being read from the configuration
Added fix for non-zero IF in pcps_acquisition_cc
Added linear correlation to pcps acquisition.
