[aprssig] IGate FIlter for AMSATS?

[Pete Loveall AE5PL Lists]

As a compromise on #1, if the directly heard station has no path, it could be passed to APRS-IS.  This would solely prevent packets heard directly with a path from being passed upstream, not all directly heard packets.  This would cover hearing satellite packets directly since they should never have a path or they should only show digipeated by their internal digipeater (either would be acceptable).
