Introduce a macro to produce data types like

	struct TYPE_fract {
		__TYPE numerator;
		__TYPE denominator;
	};

to be used in the code wherever it's needed.

In the following changes convert some users to it.

I'm not 100% sold on this, but I'm going to give them the benefit
of the doubt as to long term usefulness and apply them.

Basically I'm taking the view Andy is often right :)

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing
for 0-day to see if we missed anything.

Thanks,

Jonathan
