iio: core: Add devm_ APIs for iio_channel_{get,release}
Some of kernel driver uses the IIO framework to get the sensor
value via ADC or IIO HW driver. The client driver get iio channel
by iio_channel_get() and release it by calling iio_channel_release().
Add resource managed version (devm_*) of these APIs so that if client
calls the devm_iio_channel_get() then it need not to release it explicitly,
it can be done by managed device framework when driver get un-binded.
This reduces the code in error path and also need of .remove callback in
some cases.
