The V4L2_CID_JPEG_CLASS control class is intended to expose various
adjustable parameters of JPEG encoders and decoders. Following controls
are defined:
- V4L2_CID_JPEG_CHROMA_SUBSAMPLING,
- V4L2_CID_JPEG_RESTART_INTERVAL,
- V4L2_CID_JPEG_COMPRESSION_QUALITY,
- V4L2_CID_JPEG_ACTIVE_MARKER.
This covers only a part of relevant standard specifications. More
controls should be added in future if required.
The purpose of V4L2_CID_JPEG_CLASS class is also to replace some
functionality covered by VIDIOC_S/G_JPEGCOMP ioctls, i.e. the JPEG
markers presence and compression quality control. The applications
and drivers should switch from the ioctl to control based API, as
described in the subsequent patches for the Media API DocBook.

As discussed during the 2011 V4L-DVB workshop we want to create a proper V4L2
decoder API that replaces the DVBv5 API that has been used until now.
This adds the four controls necessary to be able to switch ivtv over to this
new API.

As discussed during the 2011 V4L-DVB workshop, the API in dvb/video.h should
be replaced by a proper V4L2 API. This patch turns the VIDEO_(TRY_)DECODER_CMD
ioctls into proper V4L2 ioctls.

If V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS is set, then the new device_caps field is filled with
the capabilities of the opened device node.
The capabilities field traditionally contains the capabilities of the physical
device, being a superset of all capabilities available at the several device
nodes. E.g., if you open /dev/video0, then if it contains VBI caps then that means
that there is a corresponding vbi node as well. And the capabilities field of
both the video and vbi nodes should contain identical caps.
However, it would be very useful to also have a capabilities field that contains
just the caps for the currently open device, hence the new CAP bit and field.

If ctrls->count is too high the multiplication could overflow and
array_size would be lower than expected. Mauro and Hans Verkuil
suggested that we cap it at 1024. That comes from the maximum
number of controls with lots of room for expantion.

V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY control allows applications to instruct
a driver what is the power line frequency so an appropriate filter
can be used by the device to cancel flicker by compensating the light
intensity ripple. Currently in the menu we have entries for 50 Hz and
60 Hz and for entirely disabling the anti-flicker filter.
However some devices are capable of automatically detecting the
frequency, so add V4L2_CID_POWER_LINE_FREQUENCY_AUTO entry for them.

Add a new VOLATILE control flag that is set for volatile controls.
That way applications know whether the value of the control is volatile
(i.e. can change continuously) or not.
Until now this was an internal property, but it is useful to know in
userspace as well.
A typical use case is the gain value when autogain is on. In that case the
hardware will continuously adjust the gain based various environmental
factors.
This patch just adds and documents the flag, it's not yet used.

Normally no control events will go to the filehandle that called the
VIDIOC_S_CTRL/VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS ioctls. This is to prevent a feedback
