hwmon: (ads7828) add support for ADS7830

The ADS7830 device is almost the same as the ADS7828,
except that it does 8-bit sampling, instead of 12-bit.
This patch extends the ads7828 driver to support this chip.

Description
-----------
This driver implements support for the Texas Instruments ADS7828.
This driver implements support for the Texas Instruments ADS7828 and ADS7830.
This device is a 12-bit 8-channel A-D converter.
The ADS7828 device is a 12-bit 8-channel A/D converter, while the ADS7830 does
8-bit sampling.
It can operate in single ended mode (8 +ve inputs) or in differential mode,
where 4 differential pairs can be measured.
