The IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL_LOG2 scale type doesn't return the expected
scale. Update the case so that the rescaler returns a fractional type
and a more precise scale.

Hi!

Hi Peter,

I do not think this is an uncontested improvement. You have broken the
case
where *val2 is "large" before the scale factor is applied.

I was a little reluctant to add this change as I keep increasing the
scope of this series, but since I added tests for all cases, I didn't
want to leave this one out.

Would you rather I drop this patch and the test cases associated to it?

Thanks,
Liam

Cheers,
Peter
