Permit record's use as a look-up-table by reading constant
input array data in dset::read_sa() routine.
Move sub-array operation into a separate function.
Extract subarray from constant INP value at device init.
Reduce the work done inside readLocked() to a minimum.
Limit NELM value to at most MALM in record init routine.
Look up event handle /after/ the device init routine has been run,
in case it modified the event name in VAL. That didn't used to
be possible because constant links couldn't return strings.
