implement an IGate mode whereby it would never gate a directly

before gating is a disaster waiting to happen IMHO.<br>

used it but Direwolf has a mode to attempt to solve this
problem. If I remember correctly it has a satgate mode that
instead of immediately gating packets holds on to them to give
the satelitte a chance to digipeat and then prioritizes the
digipeated packet. If none is heard i believe it will still
igate the original. </span>
