This makes minimum symbol rate driver capabilities on par with
windows driver, and allows tuning on linux to transponders that
have symbol rate below 5000000, too.
Patch was tested successfully on Eutelsat 16A transponders that
became reachable with it (1000000 < symbol rate < 5000000):
* DVB/S 12507050 V 2532000 3/4
* DVB/S2 12574000 V 4355000 3/4 8PSK
* DVB/S 12593000 V 2500000 2/3
* DVB/S 12596940 V 2848000 2/3
* DVB/S 12600750 V 2500000 1/2
* DVB/S 12675590 H 4248000 3/4

This is what I get after the patch:
Sat. Pol. Band Freq (MHz) Set Freq (MHz) Get Delta (MHz)
S19,2E H L 10744 10748,474 4,474
S19,2E H L 10773 10777,944 4,944
S19,2E H L 10832 10836,953 4,953
S19,2E H L 10861 10868,774 7,774

Raise the DVB frontends one level up, as the intention is to remove
the drivers/media/dvb directory.
