My humble opinion about that is that, for the users, the order of usefulness
is: "avolume=1.5" > "avolume=+3.5dB" > "avolume=384", and therefore, the
syntax should make the first one the most accessible.

What about: if there is a sign at the start, then it is in decibels, else it
is a float factor, and use the eval interface to get the value? This, the
above becomes: "avolume=1.5" > "avolume=+3.5" > "avolume=384/256".
