* \brief Convolutional Code Decoding class.
* \ingroup error_coding_blk
*
* \details
* This class performs convolutional decoding via the Viterbi
* algorithm. While it is set up to take variable values for K,
* rate, and the polynomials, currently, the block is only
* capable of handling the following settings:
*
* \li K = 7
* \li rate = 1/2 (given as 2 to the constructor)
* \li polynomials = [109, 79]
*
* This is the well-known convolutional part of the Voyager code
* implemented in the CCSDS encoder.
*
* The intent of having this FECAPI code classes fully
* parameterizable is to eventually allow it to take on generic
* settings, much like the cc_encoder class where the CCSDS
* settings would be a highly-optimized version of this.
*
* The decoder is set up with a number of bits per frame in the
* constructor. When not being used in a tagged stream mode,
* this encoder will only process frames of the length provided
* here. If used in a tagged stream block, this setting becomes
* the maximum allowable frame size that the block may process.
*
* The \p mode is a cc_mode_t that specifies how the convolutional
* encoder will behave and under what conditions.
*
* \li 'CC_STREAMING': mode expects an uninterrupted flow of
* samples into the encoder, and the output stream is
* continually encoded. This mode is the only mode for this
* decoder that has a history requirement because it requires
* rate*(K-1) bits more to finish the decoding properly. This
* mode does not work with any deployments that do not allow
* history.
*
* \li 'CC_TERMINATED': is a mode designed for packet-based
* systems. This mode adds rate*(k-1) bits to the output as a
* way to help flush the decoder.
*
* \li 'CC_TAILBITING': is another packet-based method. Instead of
* adding bits onto the end of the packet, this mode will
* continue the code between the payloads of packets by
* pre-initializing the state of the new packet based on the
* state of the last packet for (k-1) bits.
*
* \li 'CC_TRUNCATED': a truncated code always resets the registers
* to the \p start_state between frames.
*
* A common convolutional encoder uses K=7, Rate=1/2,
* Polynomials=[109, 79]. This is the Voyager code from NASA:
* \li 109: b(1101101) --> 1 + x + x^3 + x^4 + x^6
* \li 79: b(1001111) --> 1 + x^3 + x^4 + x^5 + x^6
