Gluttton 53183c0b2a limesdr: basic implementation of LimeSDR support
The commit provides a basic implementation of support for LimeSDR USB
receivers based on LMS7002 chip. The solution has several limitations:
 - passing parameters for tune LimeSDR receiver via command-line
   options is not implemented;
 - only hardcoded configuration is used (channel 0 of lower band LNA,
   LMS_FMT_I16 format, gain, bandwidth and timeout);
 - only one device is supported and it is not possible to select a
   desired one in case if several devices are connected to the host.

Test: compare the output of the program for RTL and LimeSDR receivers.
Environment:
 - RTL2832SDR dongle;
 - LMS7002M based USB LimeSDR board;
 - 800MHz-2200MHz omnidirectional antenna with SMA connector.
Procedure:
 - connect RTL dongle to the host and start the program with the
   following parameters:
   $ ./dump1090 --device-type rtlsdr --interactive
 - wait until several planes will be detected;
 - stop the program, connect the LimeSDR board to the host and restart
   the program with the following parameters:
   $ ./dump1090 --device-type limesdr --interactive
 - ensure that the same planes are detected.
Acceptance criteria: the same planes are detected using both receivers
   and track information matches with information from the
   FlightRadar24 application.
