Introduce two new helper functions to attach a arbitrary pointer to a IIO
device. This is useful to get access to external non-global data from within a
IIO device callbacks where only the IIO device is available.
Internally these functions use dev_{set,get}_drvdata() on the struct device
embedded in the IIO device.
