iio: core: add char type for sysfs attributes

Browse source 
This patch introduces IIO_VAL_CHAR type for standard IIO attributes to
allow for attributes that needs to be represented by character rather
than a number. This is preparatory for introducing a new attribute whose
purpose is to describe thermocouple type, that can be i.e. "J", "K", etc..

The char-type value is stored in the first "value" integer that is passed
to the .[read/write]_raw() callbacks.

Note that in order to make it possible for the IIO core to correctly parse
this type (actually, to avoid integer parsing), it became mandatory for
any driver that wish to use IIO_VAL_CHAR on a writable attribute to
implement .write_raw_get_fmt().
