Add IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW to the mask to be able to read raw values
from the light sensor.
The userspace code for brightness control in steam deck uses the
in_illuminance_input value through sysfs and multiplies it
with a constant stored in BIOS at factory calibration time.
The downstream driver for LTRF216A that we have been using
has incorrect formula for LUX calculation which we corrected
in the upstreamed driver.
Now to be able to use the upstreamed driver, we need to add some
magic in userspace so that the brightness control works like before
even with the updated LUX formula.
Hence, we need the raw data to calculate a constant that can be
added in userspace code.
Downstream driver LUX formula :-
(greendata*8*LTRF216A_WIN_FAC) / (data->als_gain_fac*data->int_time_fac*10)
Upstreamed driver LUX formula :-
(greendata*45*LTRF216A_WIN_FAC) / (data->als_gain_fac*data->int_time_fac)
greendata is the ALS_DATA which we would like to get through sysfs using
the raw attribute.

Changes in v2
- Add a better commit message explaining why we want this change.
- Call ltrf216a_set_power_state(data, false) before return.
