No, please do not blugeon a device into the existing documented ABI.

A resolver does not measure something that can be remotely
sensibly mapped to inclination.  Inclination is relative to 'down'.
A resolver doesn't care about down.

Add an angle type to the ABI docs. It simply hasn't been documented
before because there were no drivers outside staging that use it.
