[Ground-station] KA9Q SDR updates

[Paul Williamson]

On Ubuntu 16.04, I also ran into the fftwf_make_planner_thread_safe()
message.

Just building the package from upstream source with the default configure
script wasn't enough. I copied a set of configure flags from the build log
for a more up-to-date Ubuntu (Artful Ardvark or later should work with the
standard package), and this got me past that problem:

./configure --enable-single  --build x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr
--enable-shared --enable-threads --enable-openmp --enable-mpi
--libdir=\${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu MPILIBS="-pthread -L/usr//lib
-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openmpi/lib -lmpi" --enable-sse --enable-avx
make
sudo make install

Note that this package is used by gnuradio, too. Updating it may have
unpredictable consequences for other things we're working on!

Next problem, "No rule to make target 'bandplan.txt', needed by 'all'. Stop.

That's because I used "make clean", which deletes files it shouldn't.
Restored them from git and fixed the Makefile to not delete $(AFILES) for
the target 'clean'.

Now builds with a bunch of warnings about ignored return values, but no
errors.
