This changes the behaviour of some oddball drivers in favour of 
consistency, which isn't a bad thing.  The affected drivers now support 
INSN_CONFIG_DIO_QUERY properly instead of treating it like 
INSN_CONFIG_DIO_OUTPUT (basically, anything other than 
INSN_CONFIG_DIO_INPUT was treated like INSN_CONFIG_DIO_OUTPUT).  (The 
"ni_atmio16d" driver tried to be clever in allowing several channels to 
be configured at once.)

Looks good!
