value to always be set regardless of peripheral specified.
- Added i2c_write_error / bus_write_error to allow case where
i2c error condition expected. e.g. when a device has a
sofware reset and does not complete the i2c transaction
when reset command is sent.
- Standardised error handling across all three i2c interfaces.
- HiPi::Interface::MPL3115A2 gains mode, active, oversample
