Lars-Peter Clausen 15a5bfe481 Add helper function for scan completion
A common task during device scan is to add the newly discovered devices to
the instance list of the driver. Currently this is done by each driver on
its own. This patch introduces a new helper function std_scan_complete()
which takes care of this. The function should be called at the end of a
driver's scan() callback before returning the device list.

Doing this with a helper function provides guaranteed consistent behaviour
among drivers and hopefully paves the way to moving more standard
functionality directly into the sigrok core.

Another common task that every driver has to do for each device instance is
to initialize the device's driver field. So this is done in the new helper
function as well.

All drivers that can make use of the new helper are updated.

README
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The sigrok project aims at creating a portable, cross-platform,
Free/Libre/Open-Source signal analysis software suite that supports various
device types (such as logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, multimeters, and more).

libsigrok is a shared library written in C which provides the basic API
for talking to hardware and reading/writing the acquired data into various
input/output file formats.


Status
------

libsigrok is in a usable state and has had official tarball releases.

While the API can change from release to release, this will always be
properly documented and reflected in the package version number and
in the shared library / libtool / .so-file version numbers.

However, there are _NO_ guarantees at all for stable APIs in git snapshots!
Distro packagers should only use released tarballs (no git snapshots).
