When #iio-cells is greater than '0', the driver could provide

Add simple translation function, suitable for the most 1:1
mapped channels in IIO chips, and use it when driver did not
provide custom implementation.

Any more comments on this? Been sat a while and the discussions seems
to have died out.
As Ivan has pointed out, very similar approaches are used
elsewhere (gpio for example).
Looks good to me:

When we initially added the DT support to IIO I was hoping that we can get
away with just using the simple and generic xlate function for all devices.
But it looks as if some more complex devices need to overwrite it. We should
be careful about adding new driver specific xlate implementations and make
sure that it is actually needed.
One thing we might want to consider though is instead of adding the xlate
callback to the iio_dev struct add it to the iio_info struct since it should
be the same for different device instances of the same driver. And this is
also where all the other callbacks are.
