Subject: usrp1: changes that make benchmark rx work

initialize the time to something in soft time control

use std::max(0, lost) because the time is emulated, lost can be negative which means huge positive unsigned...

Subject: udp_zero_copy_asio: removed the #ifdefed num frames and min buff size
 stuff

basically, everything can share a common number of frames,
and there is no min buff size, only resize if a size was specified,
this simplifies the warnings and resize code

-The single usrp provides a fat interface to access the most common properties.
-The single usrp provides ways to:
-
-* Set and get daughterboard gains.

-The multi usrp API provides a wrapper around a device that represents several motherboards.
-This API provides convenience calls just like the single usrp,

-or take a channel argument to specify which channel to configure.

-* Set and get the sample rate across all channels.

+ * This class facilitates ease-of-use for most use-case scenarios.

+ * This class can be used to interface with a single USRP with

+ * All members take an optional parameter for board number or channel number.
+ * In the single device, single channel case, these parameters can be unspecified.
+ *
+ * When using a single device with multiple channels:
+ *  - Channel mapping is determined by the subdevice specifications
+ *  - All channels share a common RX sample rate
+ *  - All channels share a common TX sample rate
+ *
+ * When using multiple devices in a configuration:
+ *  - Channel mapping is determined by the device address arguments
  *  - All boards share a common RX sample rate
  *  - All boards share a common TX sample rate
  *  - All boards share a common RX subdevice specification size
  *  - All boards share a common TX subdevice specification size
  *  - All boards must have synchronized times (see the set_time_*() calls)

Subject: usrp: added set and get master clock rates to usrp API

implemented set and get rates in usrp1 (its all soft)

implemented set and get rates in usrp2 (only 100MHz)
