Miscelaneous improvements in PHY simulators

1: Add a SIGINT handler to NR PHY simulators

When using T2 virtual functions, it is important to properly stop DPDK
and free the device.  Otherwise the virtual functions may be blocked and
a restart of the admin application is necessary.

If not carefully done, such kind of operation can lead to losing cores
to DPDK processes that cannot be stopped.  This can lead to situations
where the machine is locked and can only be unlocked by a power cycle.
Always properly stopping DPDK and freeing the device reduces the risk of
such situation to happen.

Up to now, SIGINT was shutting down the PHY simulators without freeing
the device.  This commit adds a signal handler to handle SIGINT in a way
that allow to properly free the device.

This feature is added to all the NR PHY simulators whether they use T2
or not in case it is now or later of any use.

2: Make nr_ulschsim functional

There were two issues that were making nr_ulschsim non functional:

1. The channel output was not copied to decoder input (llr array)
2. The test on decoding successful outcome was wrong

The result was that nr_ulschsim was succesfull whatever were its
arguments.  This changeset fixes the two issues so that nr_ulschsim is
now functional.

This folder contains the software for layer 1 of the OpenAirInterface eNB and UE as well as the unitary simulators

|-- PHY			   // contains all signal processing related to physical layer (used in real-time AND simulation)

General remarks: every directory contains at least defs.h (for declaration of structure and functions), vars.h (for definitions of variables), and extern.h (variables are defined only once in xxx-softmodem.c (for real-time HW operation) or a top-level simulation (in SIMULATION/xxx), if variables are needed in another file, use extern.h)
