Martin Braun e398d13d67 examples: Remove default --ref and --pps values
This changes the behaviour of the examples in a way that leaving
out the --ref argument will not force it to be 'internal'. Previously,
the following command:

    rx_samples_to_file --args type=xxx,clock_source=external

would still use the internal reference, because the default value for
--ref was internal, and no other value for --ref was provided. Even
worse, the following command:

    rx_samples_to_file --args \
        type=xxx,clock_source=external,time_source=external

might throw errors/warnings, because internal clock source plus external
time source is generally not supported, and the example would force the
clock source to be internal unless `--ref internal` was also provided.

For all cases that `clock_source` or `time_source` were not given as
a device argument, this is a no-op because `internal` is the default
value anyway.

In two examples, this includes minor code changes:
- In rfnoc_radio_loopback, if both --ref and --pps were given, we now
  use set_sync_source() to speed up setting the reference sources. On
  the N310/N300 series in particular, this saves a few seconds at
  initialization over the previous implementation (which set clock and
  time reference separately).
- In test_dboard_coercion, the code would fail without a default value
  for --ref, so we no longer require such a default value.
