iio: consumers: Add an iio_multiply_value() helper function
The channel-scale handling in iio_convert_raw_to_processed() in essence
does the following:
processed = raw * caller-provided-scale * channel-scale
Which can also be written as:
multiplier = raw * caller-provided-scale
iio-value = channel-scale
processed = multiplier * iio-value
Where iio-value is a set of IIO_VAL_* type + val + val2 integers, being
able to handle multiplication of iio-values like this is something
which is useful to have in general and, as previous bugfixes to
iio_convert_raw_to_processed() have shown, also tricky to implement.
Split the iio-value multiplication code from iio_convert_raw_to_processed()
out into a new iio_multiply_value() helper. This serves multiple purposes:
1. Having this split out allows writing a KUnit test for this.
2. Having this split out allows re-use to get better precision
when scaling values in iio_read_channel_processed_scale().
