RIG_FUNC_SCAN_RESUME or RIG_FUNC_RESUME is fine with me.

I'm asking myself the following question: Is it a setting or is it an
action? If it's a setting, then it should be set through rig_set_func.
If it's an action, it pertains to rig_scan.

So I think rig_set_func/rig_get_func looks more appropriate.
