iio: accel: bmc150: Drop misleading/duplicate chip identifiers
Commit 0ad4bf370176 ("iio:accel:bmc150-accel: Use the chip ID to detect sensor variant") stopped using the I2C/ACPI match data to look up the bmc150_accel_chip_info. However, the bmc150_accel_chip_info_tbl remained as-is, with multiple entries with the same chip_id (e.g. 0xFA for BMC150/BMI055/BMA255). This is redundant now because actually the driver will always select the first entry with a matching chip_id. So even if a device probes e.g. with BMA0255 it will end up using the chip_info for BMC150. And in general that's fine for now, the entries for BMC150/BMI055/BMA255 were exactly the same anyway (except for the name, which is replaced with the more accurate one later). But in this case it's misleading because it suggests that one should add even more entries with the same chip_id when adding support for new variants. Let's make that more clear by removing the enum with the chip identifiers entirely and instead have only one entry per chip_id. Note that we may need to bring back some mechanism to differentiate between different chips with the same chip_id in the future. For example, BMA250 (currently supported by the bma180 driver) has the same chip_id = 0x03 as BMA222 even though they have different channel sizes (8 bits vs 10 bits). But in any case, that mechanism would need to look quite different from what we have right now.
