iio: ABI: Add support for floating-point numbers in buffer scan elements
In the data storage description of a scan element, the first character
after the colon can have the values 's' and 'u' to specify signed and
unsigned integers, respectively.
Add 'f' as an allowed value to specify floating-point numbers formatted
according to the IEEE 754 standard.
