Ayke van Laethem 6763521eff all: introduce a temperature type
This type should be used whenever a sensor (or actuator?) works with a
temperature. For example, this commit changes the signature:

    ReadTemperature() (int32, error)

to the following:

    ReadTemperature() (drivers.Temperature, error)

I believe this is much clearer in intent. It also makes it trivial to
introduce common conversions. For example, there are already Celsius()
and Fahrenheit() methods to convert to the given units, as a floating
point. More units could be added as needed, for example a CelsiusInt().

Ayke van Laethem 5ecefde991 bmi160: avoid heap allocations
The nrf52 series chips use DMA for writing and reading SPI data, which
means that the transmit and receive buffer slices escape. This can
easily be solved by pre-allocating the buffer in the BMI160 driver and
reusing this buffer every time.
