This adds detection and activation for STV0367-based tuner hardware (namely
CineCTv6 bridge cards and older DuoFlex CT addon modules). Utilises the
extended stv0367 demod driver.
TDA18212 i2c_client/regmap-api code was originally implemented by
Antti Palosaari <crope@iki.fi> in a variant to update the ddbridge code
from the vendor dddvb package (formal ack for these parts received).
Original patch at [1].
When boards with STV0367 are cold-started, there might be issues with the
I2C gate, causing the TDA18212 detection/probe to fail. For these demods,
a workaround (tuner_tda18212_ping) is implemented which probes the tuner
twice on this hardware constellation which will resolve the problem and
put all components into a working state. Other demod/port types won't be
retried.

Instead of having 3 options to allow customizing the media
sub-drivers (tuners, I2C drivers, frontends), merge all of
them into just one.
That simplifies the life for users, as they can just keep
this untouched.
Life for developers is also simpler, as there's now just
one Kconfig item to remember, for the ancillary sub-drivers
providing supports for chips that could change from one
board design to another.
