iio: types: add IIO_VOLUMEFLOW channel type

Add a new IIO channel type for liquid volumetric flow sensors.  The
unit exposed via the standard _scale attribute is cubic metres per
second (m^3/s), following the SI convention used by the other IIO
channel types.

Update iio-core's name table, the iio_event_monitor whitelist and
the sysfs-bus-iio ABI document to match.  The new _scale attribute is
folded into the existing shared _scale block; only the per-type _raw
needs a fresh entry.
