srd: Performance improvements for various PDs.
Ignore/skip identical samples in most (low-level) PDs, as we're usually (but not necessarily always) only interested in pin changes. This yields a significant performance improvement for the PDs. The mechanism was already used in the 'i2s', 'jtag', and 'lpc' PDs, but not yet in all supported low-level decoders. The following PDs now also use this mechanism: 'dcf77', 'i2c', 'spi', 'uart', and 'usb_signalling'. Thanks Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de> for bringing this to our attention.
