[v3,0/6] Add support for AD411x

Message

This patch series adds support for the Analog Devices AD4111, AD4112,
 AD4114, AD4115, AD4116 within the existing AD7173 driver.

  The AD411X family encompasses a series of low power, low noise, 24-bit,
sigma-delta analog-to-digital converters that offer a versatile range of
specifications. They integrate an analog front end suitable for processing
fully differential/single-ended and bipolar voltage inputs.

Particularities of the models:
- All ADCs have inputs with a precision voltage divider with a division
ratio of 10.
- AD4116 has 5 low level inputs without a voltage divider.
- AD4111 and AD4112 support current inputs (0 mA to 20 mA) using a 50ohm
shunt resistor.

Discussions from this patch series have concluded with:
-Datasheets mention single-ended and pseudo differential capabilities by
 the means of connecting the negative input of a differential pair (IN-)
 to a constant voltage supply and letting the positive input fluctuate.
 This is not a special operating mode, it is a capability of the
 differential channels to also measure such signals.

-Single-ended and pseudo differential do not need any specific
 configuration and cannot be differentiated from differential usage by
 the driver side =>
	offer adi,channel-type attribute to flag the usage of the channel

-VINCOM is described as a dedicated pin for single-ended channels but as
 seen in AD4116, it is a normal input connected to the cross-point
 multiplexer (VIN10, VINCOM (single-ended or differential pair)).
 This does not mean full functionality in any configuration:
 AD4111:"If any two voltage inputs are paired in a configuration other
 than what is described in this data sheet, the accuracy of the device
 cannot be guaranteed".

-ADCIN15 input pin from AD4116 is specified as the dedicated pin for
 pseudo-differential but from the datasheet it results that this pin is
 also able to measure single-ended and fully differential channels
 ("ADCIN11, ADCIN15. (pseudo differential or differential pair)";
  "An example is to connect the ADCIN15 pin externally to the AVSS
   pin in a single-ended configuration")

 As such, detecting the type of usage of a channel is not possible and
will be the responsability of the user to specify.
 If the user has connected a non 0V (in regards to AVSS) supply to
the negative input pin of a channel in a pseudo differential
configuration, the offset of the measurement from AVSS will not be known
from the driver and will need to be measured by other means.
