There are a few cases like light sensor integration times, where values
returned from *_available() and read_raw() are smaller than 1 and often
in the units of micro. (Like micro second scale integration times,
always smaller than 1 second). Currently those are often handled using
IIO_VAL_INT_PLUS_MICRO, which requires drivers to initialize the integer
part to zero. Furthermore, using IIO_VAL_INT_PLUS_MICRO in iio lists
requires one to always allocate the 'dummy' integer part too.
Introduce IIO_VAL_INT_MICRO which allows omitting the always zero integer.
