Parallelize PUSCH channel estimation

This MR adds PUSCH channel estimation parallelization which reduces the
processing time. It also adds time measurements for each antenna and makes
num_antennas_per_thread configurable in nr_ulsim and the gNB config file.

Some results:

- **273 PRBs 4 antennas** `./nr_ulsim -n200 -m25 -s40 -S40 -q1 -R273 -r273 -z4 -P`
