[hpsdr] Gibraltar Prototyping

As Bob has already aluded to, all these techniques have the same pricinples involved.

I've started on Gibraltar and for first pass I was planning on the Reflock II design with the iLotus M12M and Trimble-T GPS footprints, and for OCXO, the Crystek and Valpey-Fisher footprints.  This way we can experiement with each.  

I could also include a microcontroller on the PCB for added flexibility.  I would suggest the PIC18F4550 full speed USB microcontroller.
