Steve Markgraf d64c969bd6 tuner_r820t: improve tuning accuracy, allow freq correction
We now use Hz instead of KHz for calculating the PLL
parameters, and use the actual crystal frequency in Hz,
which allows to correct the frequency error in ppm.

Steve Markgraf fc5881d4cd add support for direct sampling mode
This commit adds the function rtlsdr_set_direct_sampling()
which can be used to enable/disable a mode where the
RTL2832 acts as a direct sampling receiver.

This mode disables the tuner, and by attaching a long
wire, or better, a 50Ω to 200Ω transformer and a lowpass-
filter to the In-phase ADC input (pin 1 or 2 of the RTL2832,
whereas pin 1 is at the molded dot) it is possible to listen to
shortwave radio stations. The coupling capacitors can be
left in place, but for better results they should be removed.

Tuning in this mode is done with the DDC, and since the
ADC samples with 28.8 MHz, tuning is possible from 0 to
28.8 MHz.
