[aprssig] "Best" packet decoder solution

[Scott Miller]

The OTUSB does use DSP for demodulation... so does the OT1+, but in a 
more simplistic way.  The algorithm is stripped down a bit to use the 
HCS08's 8x8 unsigned multiply, but it does pretty well against the test 
track - I got over 930 decoded.

The 32-bit system will have better dynamic range, and will have enough 
horsepower that I could have it run multiple algorithms in parallel in 
case one's better in certain circumstances.
