media: v4l: Add definitions for HEVC stateless decoding

Browse source 
This introduces the required definitions for HEVC decoding support with
stateless VPUs. The controls associated to the HEVC slice format provide
the required meta-data for decoding slices extracted from the bitstream.

They are not exported to the public V4L2 API since reworking this API
will likely be needed for covering various use-cases and new hardware.

Multi-slice decoding is exposed as a valid decoding mode to match current
H.264 support but it is not yet implemented.

The interface comes with the following limitations:
* No custom quantization matrices (scaling lists);
* Support for a single temporal layer only;
* No slice entry point offsets support;
* No conformance window support;
* No VUI parameters support;
* No support for SPS extensions: range, multilayer, 3d, scc, 4 bits;
* No support for PPS extensions: range, multilayer, 3d, scc, 4 bits.
