This needs to give some guidance to the user on 'why' they might pick a particular
format.

I'm also inclined to suggest that for now we pick a sensible default dependent
on the other options enabled (oversampling etc) and don't expose it to the user.

Eventually it looks like we may have to figure out a solution to describe
metadata packed alongside the channel readings but that may take a while
and I don't want to stall this driver on that discussion.

Thanks,

Jonathan
