There are several errors reported by V4L that aren't described.
They can occur on almost all ioctl's. Instead of adding them
into each ioctl, create a new chapter.
For V4L, the new chapter will automatically be listed on all
places, as there's a macro used everywhere there.

Normally no control events will go to the filehandle that called the
VIDIOC_S_CTRL/VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS ioctls. This is to prevent a feedback
loop.
This can now be overridden by setting the new V4L2_EVENT_SUB_FL_ALLOW_FEEDBACK
flag.
Based on suggestions from Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com> and
Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@ideasonboard.com>.

Starting with v3.1 the V4L2 API provides certain guarantees with respect to
events. Document these.

The old V4L1 Kernel copatibility layer was removed, but the API
spec still says that it is there.

The patch utility doesn't work with non-binary files. This causes some
tools to break, like generating tarball targets and the scripts that
generate diff patches at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/.
So, let's convert all binaries to ascii using base64, and add a
logic at Makefile to convert them back into binaries at runtime.

VIDIOC_S_CTRL and VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS return EACCES when setting a read-only
control VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS when trying a read-only control and
VIDIOC_G_CTRL and VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS when getting a write-only control.
Document this.

This patch addresses several issues pointed by Randy Dunlap
<rdunlap@xenotime.net> at changeset ece722c:
- In the generated index.html file, "media" is listed first, but it
should be listed in alphabetical order, not first.
- The generated files are (hidden) in .tmpmedia/
- The link from the top-level index.html file to "media" is to
media/index.html, but the file is actually in .tmpmedia/media/index.html
- Please build docs with and without using "O=builddir" and test that.
- Would it be possible for media to have its own Makefile instead of
merging into this one?
Due to the way cleandocs target works, I had to rename the media DocBook
to media_api, otherwise cleandocs would remove the /media directory.
Thanks-to: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net>
