Acquisition won't work correctly in a multi-threaded environment, when
config_set() and config_get() are called with a channel group.
The channel switching itself has moved to scpi/scpi.c, to be able to
handle switching in a thread safe way.
Use of the thread safe SCPI functions, so no write+read operation is
interruped.
Also return float values instead of double value in acquisition mode.
This is related to bug #779.
This makes the code more consistent with the rest of the code-base
and also allows std_gvar_min_max_step_array() to work here.
Without this change:

Since Autoconf places some important feature flags only into the
configuration header, it is necessary to include it globally to
guarantee a consistent build.
For devices such as the HP 6632B the following invocation was failing due to
scpi_cmd(sdi, SCPI_CMD_SELECT_CHANNEL, ...) returning SR_OK_CONTINUE.
./sigrok-cli -d scpi-pps:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0:serialcomm=9600/8n1 --continuous
sr: session: sr_session_start: could not start an acquisition (not enough data to decide error status yet)
Failed to start session.
This patch only adds the needed infrastructure to control output
frequency in the same manner as output voltage or current limit. This
does require a new field in the channel_spec struct, for the sake of
symmetry.
