Use g_malloc0() for small allocations and assume they always
succeed. Simplify error handling in a few places accordingly.
Don't always sanity-check parameters for non-public (SR_PRIV)
functions, we require the developers to invoke them correctly.
This allows further error handling simplifications.
This is a feature restricted to the new analog struct.
By default all the digits available in the encoding struct are printed.
The option "digits", when set to "spec", changes this to print the
number given in the spec struct.
The automatic selections of the measured quantity and equivalent circuit
model are more part of the configuration of the meter than attributes
of the measurement result. To reflect this, model them as config keys
instead of mqflags. This allows a driver that supports remote control to
implement 'set' method for them and has the additional benefit of saveing
two flag bits.
