iio: accel: st_accel: fix LIS3LV02 reading and scaling

The LIS3LV02 has a special bit that need to be set to get the read values left aligned. Before this patch we get gibberish like this: iio_generic_buffer -a -c10 -n lis3lv02dl_accel (...) 0.000000 -0.010042 -0.642688 19155832931907 0.000000 -0.010042 -0.642688 19155858751073 Which is because we read a raw value for 1g as 64 which is the nominal 1024 for 1g shifted 4 bits to the left by being right-aligned rather than left aligned. Since all other sensors are left aligned, add some code to set the special DAS (data alignment setting) bit to 1 so that the right value is now read like this: iio_generic_buffer -a -c10 -n lis3lv02dl_accel (...) 0.000000 -0.147095 -10.120135 24761614364956 -0.029419 -0.176514 -10.120135 24761631624540 The scaling was weird as well: we have a gain of 1000 for 1g and 3000 for 6g. I don't even remember how I came up with the old values but they are wrong.
