commit d5127b23
Author: Robert Schmidt <robert.schmidt@eurecom.fr>
Date:   Tue Nov 24 21:39:20 2020 +0100

    Move CMakeLists.txt into root

Add byte_array_t structure under common/

Some problems when we release the device:

    - Calling the destructors is wrong, we should set the pointers to NULL.
      These are shared pointers, this is C++.
    - We have to stop rx by doing a STREAM_MODE_STOP_CONTINUOUS.
    - The end-of-burst for tx has been simplified.

This problem when we acquire the device:

    - Calling get_rx_stream() many times seems to be problematic.

We now should have a better behavior with UHD 4.2 and N310. (Hopefully with
others too.) No crash seen so far.

Many useless dependencies have been removed or moved to the additional tools list of packages.
Xforms and ue-ip module must now be built explicitly
Removed support for Ubuntu 16. Addedd support for Debian 11 and Fedora 37
