Vishay has published a new version of "Designing the VCNL4200 Into an
Application" application note in October 2019. The new version specifies
that there is +-20% of part to part tolerance. This explains the drift
seen during experiments. The proximity pulse width is also changed from
32us to 30us. According to the support, the tolerance also applies to
ambient light.

So update the sampling periods. As the reading is blocking, current
users may notice slightly longer response time.

The conflict is because we don't have 5a441aade5b3 ("iio: light:
vcnl4000 add support for the VCNL4040 proximity and light sensor") on
4.19. I've adjusted context and queued it up.
