V4L2 and DRM choose different, incompatible ways to represent
tiled/compressed etc. formats. While the later uses combinations of
format fourccs and opaque, vendor/hardware specific modifiers, for the
later every such combination is a distinct new format.
Traditionally Gst implemented each of the V4L2 formats if needed.
Given the large number of tiling and compression modes, this is
quite work intensive - and often actually not needed.
In many situations Gst just needs to pass buffers from V4L2 to DRM in
the form of EGL, VK, Wayland or KMS.
Thus implement a direct translation for some V4L2 formats to DRM ones,
limited to the DMA_DRM API, allowing much quicker enablement of formats
while requiring peers to use external implementations (usually Mesa or
KMS) for tiling etc.

While adding arbitrary tile support, a round up operation was badly
converter. This caused the Y component of the stride to be 0. This
eventually lead to a crash in glupoad preceded by the following
assertion.
gst_gl_buffer_allocation_params_new: assertion 'alloc_size > 0' failed

In current tile representation, only tiles with power of two
width and height in bytes are supported. This limitation
prevents adding more complex tiles formats.
In this patch, we deprecate tile_ws and tile_hs from GstVideoFormatInfo and
replace if with an array of GstVideoTileInfo. Each plane tiles are then
described with their pixels width/height, line stride and total size.
The helper gst_video_format_info_get_tile_sizes() that depends on the
deprecated API is also being removed. This can simply be removed as it wasn't
in any stable release yet.

Copy V4L2_PIX_FMT_P010 define from linux header.
V4L2_PIX_FMT_P010 is the little endian definition of P010 so map
it GST_VIDEO_FORMAT_P010_10LE.
Add it v4l2 default video formats to allows v4l2 decoders to
enumerate and use it.
