Add support for BH1745, which is an I2C colour sensor with red, green,
blue and clear channels. It has a programmable active low interrupt
pin. Interrupt occurs when the signal from the selected interrupt
source channel crosses set interrupt threshold high or low level.

This driver includes device attributes to configure the following:
- Interrupt pin latch: The interrupt pin can be configured to
   be latched (until interrupt register (0x60) is read or initialized)
   or update after each measurement.
- Interrupt source: The colour channel that will cause the interrupt
   when channel will cross the set threshold high or low level.

This driver also includes device attributes to present valid
configuration options/values for:
- Integration time
- Interrupt colour source
- Hardware gain

Provide _SCALE instead of HARDWAREGAIN
As it's an intensity channel (and units are tricky for color sensors given
frequency dependence etc) all you need to do is ensure that if you halve
the _scale and measure the same light source, the computed
_RAW * _SCALE value remains constant.

...Which is likely to cause also the integration time setting to
impact the SCALE.

You may or may not want to see the GTS-helpers
(drivers/iio/industrialio-gts-helper.c) - which have their own tricky
corners. I think Jonathan once suggested to me to keep the

Hi Matti,

Thank you for the recommendation here.

Looking into GTS-helper for v5.
