All those options are currently applied only to power-supplies
but they could apply as well to electronic loads, except for the
fact that electronic loads channels are called inputs and not
outputs.
Also when you think about an SMU (or any kind of 4-quadrants
power-supply), their channels can both source and sink current,
so they can be considered as input as much as output.
Those SR_CONF_* are thus renamed so that they can be used in all
those situations.
Add new configuration option allowing to modify the probe factor
for oscilloscopes and power-monitors.

Add new error code which can be used to notify the user about
general input/output errors.

Add new config options to libsigrok - 'averaging', which allows to
enable averaging of samples and 'avg_samples' for setting the number
of samples to be averaged over in each cycle.

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.
Add flags for indicating that the meter has selected the measured
quantitiy and/or the used measurement model automatically. These
are similar to the existing auto-range flag.
Add 'SR_MQ_DIFFERENCE' quantity for reporting relative difference
between the current measurement and the reference value. The value
of this quantity will normally be reported in percents. Add also
the flag 'SR_MQFLAG_REFERENCE' for indicating that the reported
value is not the current measurement but the reference value instead.
Add parallel and serial model inductance, capacitance and resistance
for LCR meter measurements. Add also secondary quantities many LCR
meters calculate, namely dissipation factor, quality factor and phase
angle.
Add degrees and henrys to the list of supported units. Degree is
an unit of plane angle where one degree is 1/360th of a full circle.
Henry is the SI unit of inductance.
Every driver now publishes its device option config keys, i.e. the
list fetched with sr_config_list(SR_CONF_DEVICE_OPTIONS), with a
set of flags indicating which methods are implemented by the driver
for that key.
The config keys are OR'ed with any combination of SR_CONF_GET,
SR_CONF_SET and SR_CONF_LIST. These are defined as the high bits
of the uint32_t config key. Clients can OR config keys with
SR_CONF_MASK to strip out these bits. This mask will be kept up to
date if other bits are added to the capabilities list; clients MUST
therefore use SR_CONF_MASK for this.
Some keys don't have capability bits added, such as the informative
device type keys (SR_CONF_MULTIMETER, SR_CONF_OSCILLOSCOPE, ...) and
SR_CONF_CONTINUOUS.
Scan options do not have capabilities bits.
This is intended for setting (or getting) the amplitude of a source
which doesn't really have an MQ associated with it, such as the demo
driver's analog channels.
This is needed so that the C++ bindings, the header for which
references "libsigrok/libsigrok.h", can have a valid include
directory passed to build them before the headers are installed.
