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.

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
1) Fixed a bug in gnss_signal::compare
The signal string comparison was not correct.
2) Fix for gnss_flowgraph when satellites are specified
3) Better handling of acquisition in flow graph
Now PRNs are alternated amongst channels, so we don't get 'stuck' on a
particular PRN, and we don't miss out on PRNs that are assigned to
channels that come after a channel that is always in the acquisition state.
4) Added SYS.prns to config file.
Now we can specify which PRNs are available in the configuration, rather
than re-compiling. Particularly useful for debugging, or experimenting
with files where you already know which signals are present

decoding: Changes in the flowgraph and in the configuration files to mix
channels from different GNSS systems in the same receiver. Hybrid
observables and PVT under construction.
The changes in the configuration file parameter names are NOT backward
compatible. The receiver can still work as usual in single GNSS system
mode but some modification on configuration files are required. Use the
example provided of Hybrid configuration file.
- Changes in Galileo telemetry decoding (still under construction)
- Bug correction in tracking blocks that could cause random segmentation faults on some configurations

- Some channel and acquisition properties are now common for all channels
- You can choose between channel-specific properties or properties common to all
- Updating config file with the new options

- The executable file and the default configuration file is now changed from "./install/mercurio" and "./conf/mercurio.conf" to "./install/gnss-sdr" and "./conf/gnss-sdr.conf", respectively.
- Configuration file structure changed to define in a single entry the internal sampling frequency (after the signal conditioner). NOTICE that this change affects the all the adapters (acquisition, tracking, telemetry_decoder, observables, and PVT). All the adapters are now modified to work with this feature.
- Moved several in-line GPS L1 CA parameters (a.k.a magic numbers..) to ./src/core/system_parameters/GPS_L1_CA.h definition file.
- Tracking blocks now uses DOUBLE values in their outputs.
- Observables and PVT now are separated. PVT and their associated libraries are moved to ./src/algorithms/PVT
- Temporarily disabled the RINEX output (I am working on that!)
- GNSS-SDR screen output now gives extended debug information of the receiver status and events. In the future, this output will be redirected to a log file.
- Bug fixes:
- FILE_SIGNAL_SOURCE now works correctly when the user configures GNSS-SDR to process the entire file.
- GPS_L1_CA_DLL_PLL now computes correctly the PRN start values.
- GPS_L1_CA_DLL_FLL_PLL now computes correctly the PRN start values.
- Several modifications in GPS_L1_CA_Telemetry_Decoder, GPS_L1_CA_Observables, and GPS_L1_CA_PVT modules to fix the GPS position computation.
- New features
- Tracking blocks perform a signal integrity check against NaN outliers before the correlation process.
- Tracking and PVT binary dump options are now documented and we provide MATLAB libraries and sample files to read it. Available in ./utils/matlab" and "./utils/matlab/libs"
- Observables output rate can be configured. This option enables the GPS L1 CA PVT computation at a maximum rate of 1ms.
- GPS_L1_CA_PVT now can perform a moving average Latitude, Longitude, and Altitude output for each of the Observables output. It is configurable using the configuration file.
- Added Google Earth compatible Keyhole Markup Language (KML) output writer class (./src/algorithms/PVT/libs/kml_printer.h and ./src/algorithms/PVT/libs/kml_printer.cc ). You can see the receiver position directly using Google Earth.
- We provide a master configuration file which includes an in-line documentation with all the new (and old) options. It can be found in ./conf/master.conf
