Whilst it is almost always possible to arrange for scan data to be
read directly into a buffer that is suitable for passing to
iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp(), there are a few places where
leading data needs to be skipped over.
For these cases introduce a function that will allocate an appropriate
sized and aligned bounce buffer (if not already allocated) and copy
the unaligned data into that before calling
iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp() on the bounce buffer.
We tie the lifespace of this buffer to that of the iio_dev.dev
which should ensure no memory leaks occur.
