[media] v4l2-mc.h: move tuner PAD definitions to this new header
The customer PC hardware can be shipped with lots of different configurations, as vendors use to replace some of the chips on their hardware along the time. All drivers that support such devices are prepared to handle the hardware differences, using their own auto-probing logic. They do it in a way that number of inputs and outputs for a given hardware type doesn't change. Now that we're adding media controller capabilities to those drivers, we need to standardize the number of inputs and outputs for each hardware type, as we want to have a generic function at the V4L2 core that would create the links for the entities that are expected on such hardware. Such standard is already there for tuners, but tuner.h is not the best place to store such data, as we'll need to add definitions also for analog TV demodulators. Also, we'll need a place to put a set of MC handling functions. So, let's create a v4l2-mc.h to store such kind of definitions. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@osg.samsung.com>
