[media] stv090x: use lookup tables for carrier/noise ratio
The stv090x driver uses the lookup table for signal strength already, with this patch we use the lookup tables for carrier/noise ratio as well. This has the advantage, that values for DVB-S and DVB-S2 are now corresponding, while before they were way off. The values are now proportional to real carrier/noise ratio, while before they were corresponding to register values. So now applications are able to give the user real carrier/noise ratio. Because the output has to be within 0x0000...0xFFFF the three negative values for DVB-S2 are omitted. This is no significant loss, because reception is lost at 7.5 dB already (TT S2-1600, Cine S2), so the negative values are not really important, and also for DVB-S they don´t exist.
