src/sgpsdp has non-ASF GPL code

src/sgpsdp has code that was copied from the gpredict tool, and it gets compiled directly into Mapready. Since gpredict is released under the GPL, that means Mapready must also be GPLed. Since gpredict isn't ASF code, we can't change its license.

Kirk suggests that all the functionality performed by sgpsdp should have been moved over to the libsgp4 external library, but plan and sst still depend on src/sgpsdp.

This is irrelevant since Mapready needs to be GPL-licensed anyway.
