[media] v4l: Add timestamp source flags, mask and document them
Some devices do not produce timestamps that correspond to the end of the
frame. The user space should be informed on the matter. This patch achieves
that by adding buffer flags (and a mask) for timestamp sources since more
possible timestamping points are expected than just two.
A three-bit mask is defined (V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_MASK) and two of the
eight possible values is are defined V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_EOF for end of
frame (value zero) V4L2_BUF_FLAG_TSTAMP_SRC_SOE for start of exposure (next
value).
