[chirp_devel] [PATCH 3 of 4] [LT-580] Driver Maintenance: th9000.py

This is problematic because it causes one image to be detected as two drivers, and thus fails the unit test for "brute force detection" which looks for these conflicts. FYI, I put another patch in the series to just cause the new top-level drivers to require metadata-based files. Anything old will open in the old driver as it would have before, and anything cloned and saved as the new non-alias drivers will open as such as well.

Thanks!
