This has been on my TODO list for some time now: the control that enables the video
loopback was part of the controls of the video output device instead of the video
capture device. In practice this was quite annoying since you expect it at the capture
side since that's where you want to make the decision whether to use the TPG or looped
video.
This patch moves the control from the output to the capture side.

Document the new Transfer Function control (and fix the documentation for
the other colorspace controls which were not quite correct).
Mention the support for 4:2:0 and more multiplanar formats.
Update the TODO list at the end.

Sequential top-bottom/bottom-top fields are not supported as video loopback.
This is too much work to implement for field settings that are rarely used.

The default used to be that the first vivid device instance was
single planar, the second multi planar, the third single planar, etc.
However, that turned out to be unexpected and awkward. Change the
driver to always default to single planar.

This is useful to test teletext capture applications like alevt and mtt.
It also fixes a previously undetected bug where the PAL VBI start line
of the second field was off by one. Using the new field start defines
helps a lot fixing such bugs.

The vivid Virtual Video Test Driver helps testing V4L2 applications
and can emulate V4L2 hardware. Add the documentation for this driver.
