[hpsdr] process priority

[Chris Albertson]

Be warned that messing with process priorities is somewhat
un-intuitive.
You can think you might make your "compute" process go faster by
raising it's priority but possibly it uses data from some other process
and will "hang" if that other process can't run.  Not that things can't
be tunned but just that you have to know something about how the system
as a whole works and about how the scheduler in the kernel uses
priority to allocate CPU(s) to tasks.
