Patched CRC-DabMod

With the patched CRC-DabMod presented on http://mpb.li and available on https://github.com/mpbraendli , it is possible to directly use UHD to send data to the USRP, and do the digital filtering inside DabMod. In addition, there is also support for a configuration file : see [1]

Other features: see README [2]
