Subject: iio: gyro: itg3200: Fix unchecked return value in read_raw

The return value from itg3200_read_reg_s16() is stored in ret but never checked. The function unconditionally returns IIO_VAL_INT, ignoring potential I2C read failures. This causes garbage data to be returned to userspace when the read fails, with no error reported.

Add proper error checking to propagate the failure to callers.
