gnuradio.pkgs: init + 3.8 -> 3.9

[doronbehar]

• Write a mkDerivation and mkDerivationWith function for gnuradio,
  like qt5.
• qradiolink, gqrx: Use gnuradio's mkDerivation.
• Use gnuradio's mkDerivation to define all gnuradio.pkgs.
• Move all gnuradio packages expressions to pkgs/development/gnuradio-modules/.
• Make the gnuradio wrapped and unwrapped derivations compose like python.
• Add more paths to gnuradio's wrapper - add the extra packages as
  python modules, and add their executables with proper env vars
  wrapping.

Motivation for this change

building gnuradio-with-packages fails with Alias gnuradio-with-packages is still in all-packages.nix

Fixed now :), and merge conflict fixed as well.

[doronbehar]

Fixed the eval error by pushing two more commits that refactor gqrx and gnss-sdr to use gnuradio.callPackage and gnuradio's mkDerivation.

[doronbehar]

Refactored inspectrum as well. Demonstrating that most of the end user applications that need gnuradio can be built with gnuradio 3.8 that itself is built without gui support.

[doronbehar]

Now GR 3.9 is here :).

I think there's not much left to do here - It would be great if some users will make sure basic functionality is working with GR3.9 and the gnuradio packages which currently compile only with GR3.8. This can be tested with e.g:

  gnuradioEnv = gnuradio3_8.override {
    extraPackages = lib.attrVals [
      "osmosdr" "rds" "limesdr"
    ] gnuradio3_8Packages;
  };

Checking that GR and all new packages introduced here also work on Darwin would be great, but shouldn't block this from getting merged IMO.

The packages interface has improved since the last reviews and it can be changed in the future if a change to the interface will be required.

@doronbehar if you don't get any further feedback despite cc'ing previous contributors, then just go ahead with it.

Will merge once nixpkgs-review finishes on my machine.

Fixed the build of gnuradioMinimal but didn't run nixpkgs-review again. Merging when ofborg is green.
