- Changed declaration of SAUL classes (while keeping the format)
- Termed "class of SAUL classes" category of SAUL classes in the doc to
avoid confusion. (E.g. a SAUL class will now be in category sensor or
actuator.)
- Separate enums for SAUL category and intra-category ID. Numbers will now
but auto-assigned by the compiler
- Use constant look-up tables for stringification (one table per SAUL category).
==> This saves 512B in .data section of AVR
The binary shift operators in C are defined via the change of their values, not
the change of the memory representation of them. When reading a value from
little endian out of buffer `buf`, `((uint16_t)buf[1] << 8) | buf[0]` will
thus work regardless of the byte order of the host system.
- Use standard RIOT style `ina2xx_params_t` on initialization as explained in
[1] instead of a custom API
- Provided a default configuration via `ina2xx_params_t` as required by [1] that
works fine for the INA219 breakout board and with an optimal resolution that
still covers the whole range of USB high-power devices (500 mA @ 5V) with a
comfortable safe margin.
- Changed initialization procedure to include a device reset and connectivity
test, as required by [1]
- The calibration value is now calculated by the driver
- This simplifies using the driver a lot
- The user can still choose a trade-off between range and resolution that
matches the application requirements, but now among predefined values
- This allows the driver to easily convert the raw data into meaningful
physical data, as the resolution of the raw data is known
- All measurements are provided as meaningful physical data as required by [1]

The INA219 has the exact same interface as the INA220 (including values and
semantics of the configuration register). Thus, this driver can be used for
both. The ina220 has been renamed to ina2xx to reflect this and pseudo modules
for the ina220 and ina219 have been added.
