with the B210 and 2 RF ports, i.e. MIMO mode, we have stopped the
Rx stream after changing the rx_samp_rate but didn't start it again.
Either the issue doesn't exist in SISO mode or we never saw it but for MIMO
it can be reproduced easily with rate changes during streaming, i.e.:
$ ./lib/src/radio/test/benchmark_radio -p 2 -t 10 -x -y -s 23.04e6

it fixes#1623.
this happens more often with MIMO since lates are more likely here.
after a late, the Rx stream must not be stopped on the B2xx either.

the enable_rx_timestamps() for the radio_ctrl object has only been
introduced in Nov 2019 for UHD 3.15 and therefore needs
to be excluded when compiling for 3.14 and below.
Note: According to the original UHD commit in
67dbaa41f2 (diff-60a9387c0fc8406fd5b39fa995dd8c14)
it looks like the Rx timestamps are disabled by default
for UHD versions before 3.15
This commit fixes#1602
