As per the ACPI specification (Revision 5.0) [1], the data coming
from the sensor represent the ambient light illuminance reading
expressed in lux. So use IIO_CHAN_INFO_PROCESSED to signify that
the data are pre-processed.
However, to keep backward ABI compatibility, the IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW
bit is not removed.

This issue has also been responsible for at least one userspace bug
report hence marking what is a small semantic fix really for stable.

Some macros and a function were missing the acpi_als_ prefix, so add it.

This driver adds the initial support for the ACPI Ambient Light Sensor
as defined in Section 9.2 of the ACPI specification (Revision 5.0) [1].
Sensors complying with the standard are exposed as ACPI devices with
ACPI0008 as hardware ID and provide standard methods by which the OS
can query properties of the ambient light environment the system is
currently operating in.
This driver currently allows only to get the current ambient light
illuminance reading through the _ALI method, but is ready to be
extended extended to handle _ALC, _ALT and _ALP as well.
