V4L/DVB: IR: add mceusb IR receiver driver
This is a new driver for the Windows Media Center Edition/eHome
Infrared Remote transceiver devices. Its a port of the current
lirc_mceusb driver to ir-core, and currently lacks transmit support,
but will grow it back soon enough... This driver also differs from
lirc_mceusb in that it borrows heavily from a simplified IR buffer
decode routine found in Jon Smirl's earlier ir-mceusb port.
This driver has been tested on the original first-generation MCE IR
device with the MS vendor ID, as well as a current-generation device
with a Topseed vendor ID. Every receiver supported by lirc_mceusb
should work equally well. Testing was done primarily with RC6 MCE
remotes, but also briefly with a Hauppauge RC5 remote, and all works
as expected.
v2: fix call to ir_raw_event_handle so repeats work as they should.
