iio: core: Introduce IIO_CHAN_INFO_OVERSAMPLING_RATIO
Some magnetometers can perform a number of repetitions in HW for each measurement to increase accuracy. One example is Bosch BMC150: http://ae-bst.resource.bosch.com/media/products/dokumente/bmc150/BST-BMC150-DS000-04.pdf. Introduce an interface to set the oversampling ratio for these devices.

+ Hardware applied number of measurements for acquiring one
