[media] v4l: subdev: Events support
Provide v4l2_subdevs with v4l2_event support. Subdev drivers only need very
little to support events.

+ The events ioctls are identical to the ones defined in V4L2. They
+ behave identically, with the only exception that they deal only with
+ events generated by the sub-device. Depending on the driver, those
+ events can also be reported by one (or several) V4L2 device nodes.
+
+ Sub-device drivers that want to use events need to set the
+ V4L2_SUBDEV_USES_EVENTS v4l2_subdev::flags and initialize
+ v4l2_subdev::nevents to events queue depth before registering the
+ sub-device. After registration events can be queued as usual on the
+ v4l2_subdev::devnode device node.
+
+ To properly support events, the poll() file operation is also
+ implemented.
