Introduce a generic method to read samples from the async buffer.
The size of each sample is detected automatically using the bytes_per_sample()
helper. The unsigned long long is used to avoid any possible integer overflow
when calculating the 'nbytes' for all the requested samples. This value is
then clampled to the actual size of the async buffer. The samples are read
from the async buffer using comedi_read_array_from_buffer().
This will allow converting all the comedi drivers to use a common method when
reading data from the async buffer.
Since comedi_read_array_from_buffer() sets the COMEDI_CB_BLOCK event after
reading the data, those events can be removed from the drivers.
In addition, comedi_inc_scan_progress() will automatically detect the end of
scan and set the COMEDI_CB_EOS event. Those events can also be removed from
the drivers.
