iio: Add a logarithmic fractional value type
For ADCs or DACs the denominator for fractional types often is a power of two.
In this case we can use a shift operation instead of the rather expensive 64 bit
division. This patch adds a new fractional type which expects the denominator to
be specified as the log2 of the actual denominator. E.g. for ADCs and DACs this
will usually be the number of significant bits.
