Settling time and over sampling is a typical challenge for different IIO ADC
devices. So, introduce channel specific settling-time-us and average-samples
properties to cover this use case.

So in IIO at least, we tend to refer to this as oversampling.  Perhaps we
should use that term here as well?  It would also be good to give some hint
as to why this might be a DT property rather than a userspace control.

Thanks,

Jonathan
