Michael Olbrich 0769a78dd1 v4l2: iterate controls with V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL if possible
In v2.6.18 control classes where added to the v4l2 API.
Iterating over CIDs starting with V4L2_CID_BASE will only find controls for
the first control class.
By iterating with V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL all controls are found.

This is necessary to make controls from other control classes available in
the extra-controls property.

If V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL is not defined at compile time or not supported
at runtime then the old mechanism for iterating is used.

v4l2 plugins
============

The idea is a bit the same as the idea for the v4l1 plugins. We want
one generic v4l2element, and a few child objects (probably only two:
v4l2src and v4l2sink):

                /-------- v4l2src
v4l2element ---=
                \-------- v4l2sink

Both v4l2src and v4l2sink have a uncompressed and a compressed
recording-/playback-mode. Since this is all part of v4l2, the 'client'
of these elements, i.e. an application using v4l2src/v4l2sink, will
hardly notice this. All capsnego stuff is done inside, and the plugin
knows which formats are compressed and which are not.

Please note that the v4l1 and the v4l2 plugins are *not* compatible
concerning properties. Naming has been kept the same where possible,
but in some cases, properties had to be removed or added to make
full use of v4l2.
