iio: Add output buffer support

Currently IIO only supports buffer mode for capture devices like ADCs. Add
support for buffered mode for output devices like DACs.

The output buffer implementation is analogous to the input buffer
implementation. Instead of using read() to get data from the buffer write()
is used to copy data into the buffer.

poll() with POLLOUT will wakeup if there is space available.

Drivers can remove data from a buffer using iio_pop_from_buffer(), the
function can e.g. called from a trigger handler to write the data to
hardware.

A buffer can only be either a output buffer or an input, but not both. So,
for a device that has an ADC and DAC path, this will mean 2 IIO buffers
(one for each direction).

The direction of the buffer is decided by the new direction field of the
iio_buffer struct and should be set after allocating and before registering
it.
