Use a stack-allocated struct in sx9500_trigger_handler() to hold the
IIO buffer scan data. Since the scan buffer isn't used outside of this
function, it doesn't need to be in struct sx9500_data.
By always allocating enough space for the maximum number of channels,
we can avoid having to reallocate the buffer each time buffered reads
are enabled.

Changes in v2:
- Replaced `IIO_DECLARE_BUFFER_WITH_TS()` with struct.
- I didn't pick up Andy's review tag since I don't consider this a trivial
change and deserves a 2nd look.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250711-iio-use-more-iio_declare_buffer_with_ts-4-v1-1-1a1e521cf747@baylibre.com

Applied.
If anyone is bored, switching the remainder of the unwinding done manually
in the remove() for devm based cleanup looks straight forward.
