Now that interfaces got created, we need to fix the entity
namespace.
So, let's create a consistent new namespace and add backward
compatibility macros to keep the old namespace preserved.

Declare the interface types that will be used by the new
G_TOPOLOGY ioctl that will be defined later on.
For now, we need those types, as they'll be used on the
internal structs associated with the new media_interface
graph object defined on the next patch.

The alsa struct in struct media_entity_desc is now marked as deprecated.
However, the alsa struct should remain as it is since it cannot be replaced
by a simple major/minor device node description. The alsa struct was designed
to be used as an alsa card description so V4L2 drivers could use this to expose
the alsa card that they create to carry the captured audio. Such a card is not
just a PCM device, but also needs to contain the alsa subdevice information,
and it may map to multiple devices, e.g. a PCM and a mixer device, such as the
au0828 usb stick creates.
This is exactly as intended and this cannot and should not be replaced by a
simple major/minor.
However, whether this information is in the right form for an ALSA device such
that it can handle udev renaming rules as well is another matter. So mark this
alsa struct as TODO and document the problems involved.
Updated the documentation as well to reflect this and to add the 'major'
and 'minor' field documentation.
Updated the documentation to clearly state that struct dev is to be used for
(sub-)devices that create a single device node. Other devices need their own
structure here.

Most of the DVB subdevs have already their own devnode.
Add support for them at the media controller API.

The previous provision for DVB media controller support were to
define an ID (likely meaning the adapter number) for the DVB
devnodes.
This is just plain wrong. Just like V4L, DVB devices (and any other
device node)) are uniquely identified via a (major, minor) tuple.
This is enough to uniquely identify a devnode, no matter what
API it implements.
So, before we go too far, let's mark the old v4l, fb, dvb and alsa
"devnode" info as deprecated, and just call it as "dev".
We can latter add fields specific to each API if needed.
As we don't want to break compilation on already existing apps,
let's just keep the old definitions as-is, adding a note that
those are deprecated at media-entity.h.

A lot of SOCs including Texas Instruments Davinci family mainly use
video decoders as input devices. This patch adds a flag
'MEDIA_ENT_T_V4L2_SUBDEV_DECODER' media entity type for decoder's.
Along side updates the documentation for this media entity type.
