Quadrature encoders, such as rotary encoders and linear encoders, are
devices which are capable of encoding the relative position and
direction of motion of a shaft. This patch introduces several IIO
constants for supporting quadrature encoder counter devices.
IIO_COUNT: Current count (main data provided by the counter device)
IIO_INDEX: Counter device index value
