Installation docs reference old package name

https://github.com/pothosware/PothosCore/wiki/Ubuntu#sdr-runtime-packages the installation packages are referenced as SoapySDR-Server when the package is named soapyremote-server in the ubuntu repository

apt info soapysdr-server N: Unable to locate package soapysdr-server N: Unable to locate package soapysdr-server E: No packages found

apt info soapyremote-server Package: soapyremote-server Version: 0.5.2-3

https://github.com/pothosware/SoapyRemote/wiki#using-the-systemd-service-linux I think the alias isn't working properly somehow in ubuntu 22.04 for the service. I had to use soapyremote-server.service instead.

$ sudo systemctl enable SoapySDRServer   # Fails

$ sudo systemctl enable soapyremote-server.service     # works for me.
