Use GstPoll to wait for the fd of the video device to become readable before
trying to capture a frame. This speeds up stopping v4l2src a lot as it no
longer has to wait for the next frame, especially when capturing with low
framerates or when the video device just never generates a frame (which seems a
common issue for uvcvideo devices)
Fixes bug #563574.

Fix memory leaks. Small code cleanups : No need for empty _init(). No
need to memset instance structures. Some more FIXME's.

* sys/v4l2/gstv4l2object.c: (gst_v4l2_class_probe_devices):
Reprobe devices again instead of taking a cached list as new
devices could've been plugged in. Fixes bug #549062.

* sys/v4l2/v4l2src_calls.h:
* sys/v4l2/v4l2src_calls.c (gst_v4l2src_fill_format_list): Store
the format list in the order that the driver gives it to us.
(gst_v4l2src_probe_caps_for_format_and_size)
(gst_v4l2src_probe_caps_for_format): New functions, fill GstCaps
based on the capabilities of the device.
(gst_v4l2src_grab_frame): Update for object variable renaming.
(gst_v4l2src_set_capture): Update to be strict in its parameters,
as in the set_caps below.
(gst_v4l2src_capture_init): Update for object variable renaming,
and reflow.
(gst_v4l2src_capture_start, gst_v4l2src_capture_stop)
(gst_v4l2src_capture_deinit): Update for object variable renaming.
(gst_v4l2src_update_fps, gst_v4l2src_set_fps)
(gst_v4l2src_get_fps): Remove; these functions don't have much
meaning outside of an atomic set_caps method.
(gst_v4l2src_buffer_new): Don't set buffer duration, it is not
known.
* sys/v4l2/gstv4l2tuner.c (gst_v4l2_tuner_set_channel): Remove
call to update_fps; not sure about this change.
(gst_v4l2_tuner_set_norm): Work around the fact that for the
moment we don't have an update_fps_func.
* sys/v4l2/gstv4l2src.h (struct _GstV4l2Src): Don't put v4l2
structures in the object, just store what we need. Do store the
probed caps of the device. Don't store the current frame rate.
* sys/v4l2/gstv4l2src.c (gst_v4l2src_init): Remove the
update_fps_function, for now. Update for new object variable
naming.
(gst_v4l2src_set_property, gst_v4l2src_get_property): Update for
new object variable naming.
(gst_v4l2src_v4l2fourcc_to_structure): Rename from ..._to_caps.
(gst_v4l2_structure_to_v4l2fourcc): Rename from ...caps_to_....
(gst_v4l2src_get_caps): Rework to probe the device for supported
frame sizes and frame rates.
(gst_v4l2src_set_caps): Rework to be strict in the given
parameters: if someone asks us to have a certain size and rate,
that is what we configure.
(gst_v4l2src_get_read): Update for object variable naming. Don't
leak buffers on short reads.
(gst_v4l2src_get_mmap): Update for object variable naming, and add
comments.
(gst_v4l2src_create): Update for object variable naming.

Fix EIO handing when capturing. Add new property to specify the number of
buffers to enque (and remove the borked num-buffers usage).

If "device-name" is requested and the device is not
