Enabling RTL-SDR support in seify includes GPL'd components. unless we can get a license soon, this branch would have to be abandoned

Addresses issue #131

I found that SDR++ doesn't see the RTL-SDR either. Found these instructions to install the WinUSB driver for the RTL-SDR on windows: https://www.rtl-sdr.com/rtl-sdr-quick-start-guide/

Will see if James already did this for the windows computers he uses RTL-SDR for, or if there's way for us to automate this process on windows (detach existing driver?)
