iio: proximity: vl53l0x-i2c: claim direct mode for raw readsgrafted
vl53l0x_read_raw() starts a single-shot ranging measurement and reads back the result. Once the triggered buffer is enabled the sensor runs in continuous mode and its data-ready interrupt is routed to the trigger, so a concurrent in_distance_raw read disturbs the streaming setup and never gets its completion, returning -ETIMEDOUT. The original submission claimed direct mode here, but it was dropped during review because the driver had no buffer support at the time [1]. Continuous (buffered) mode was later added without restoring the claim [2], reintroducing the conflict. Reject direct reads while buffered capture is active by claiming direct mode around the measurement, as the vl53l1x sibling already does.

+=========================
+Driver-specific callbacks
+=========================
+
+The ``pldmfw`` module relies on the device driver for implementing device
+specific behavior using the following operations.
+
+``.match_record``
+-----------------
+
+The ``.match_record`` operation is used to determine whether a given PLDM
+record matches the device being updated. This requires comparing the record
+descriptors in the record with information from the device. Many record
+descriptors are defined by the PLDM standard, but it is also allowed for
+devices to implement their own descriptors.
+
+The ``.match_record`` operation should return true if a given record matches
+the device.
+
+``.send_package_data``
+----------------------
+
+The ``.send_package_data`` operation is used to send the device-specific
+package data in a record to the device firmware. If the matching record
+provides package data, ``pldmfw`` will call the ``.send_package_data``
+function with a pointer to the package data and with the package data
+length. The device driver should send this data to firmware.
+
+``.send_component_table``
+-------------------------
+
+The ``.send_component_table`` operation is used to forward component
+information to the device. It is called once for each applicable component,
+that is, for each component indicated by the matching record. The
+device driver should send the component information to the device firmware,
+and wait for a response. The provided transfer flag indicates whether this
+is the first, last, or a middle component, and is expected to be forwarded
+to firmware as part of the component table information. The driver should an
+error in the case when the firmware indicates that the component cannot be
+updated, or return zero if the component can be updated.
+
+``.flash_component``
+--------------------
+
+The ``.flash_component`` operation is used to inform the device driver to
+flash a given component. The driver must perform any steps necessary to send
+the component data to the device.
+
+``.finalize_update``
+--------------------
+
+The ``.finalize_update`` operation is used by the ``pldmfw`` library in
+order to allow the device driver to perform any remaining device specific
+logic needed to finish the update.
