tools: iio: iio_generic_buffer: allow continuous looping
Sometimes it's useful to stream samples forever, such as when stress-testing a driver overnight to check for memory leaks or other issues. When the program receives a signal, it will gracefully cleanup, so it is still safe to terminate at any time. Add support for specifying a negative -c option, meaning that we should loop forever. To do so, we need to use a long long (instead of just long) for num_loops so that current code specifying num_loops greater than UNSIGNED_LONG_MAX doesn't break.
