This adds new fields to the iio_channel structure to support multiple
scan types per channel. This is useful for devices that support multiple
resolution modes or other modes that require different data formats of
the raw data.

To make use of this, drivers need to implement the new callback
get_current_scan_type() to resolve the scan type for a given channel
based on the current state of the driver. There is a new scan_type_ext
field in the iio_channel structure that should be used to store the
scan types for any channel that has more than one. There is also a new
flag has_ext_scan_type that acts as a type discriminator for the
scan_type/ext_scan_type union. A union is used so that we don't grow
the size of the iio_channel structure and also makes it clear that
scan_type and ext_scan_type are mutually exclusive.

The buffer code is the only code in the IIO core code that is using the
scan_type field. This patch updates the buffer code to use the new
iio_channel_validate_scan_type() function to ensure it is returning the
correct scan type for the current state of the device when reading the
sysfs attributes. The buffer validation code is also update to validate
any additional scan types that are set in the scan_type_ext field. Part
of that code is refactored to a new function to avoid duplication.

Some userspace tools may need to be updated to re-read the scan type
after writing any other attribute. During testing, we noticed that we
had to restart iiod to get it to re-read the scan type after enabling
oversampling on the ad7380 driver.
