[RFC v2 01/11] iio: introduce iio backend device

[Olivier Moysan]

Add a new device type in IIO framework.
This backend device does not compute channel attributes and does not expose
them through sysfs, as done typically in iio-rescale frontend device.
Instead, it allows to report information applying to channel
attributes through callbacks. These backend devices can be cascaded
to represent chained components.
An IIO device configured as a consumer of a backend device can compute
the channel attributes of the whole chain.
