[RESEND v7 0/4] usb: gadget: uvc: use configfs entries for negotiation and v4l2 VIDIOCS

This series improves the uvc video gadget by parsing the configfs
entries. With the configfs data, the driver now is able to negotiate the
format with the usb host in the kernel and also exports the supported
frames/formats/intervals via the v4l2 VIDIOC interface.

The uvc userspace stack is also under development. One example is an generic
v4l2uvcsink gstreamer elemnt, which is currently under discussion. [1]

With the libusbgx library [1] used by the gadget-tool [2] it is now also
possible to fully describe the configfs layout of the uvc gadget with scheme
files.

The bigger picture of these patches is to provide a more versatile interface to
the uvc gadget. The goal is to simply start a uvc-gadget with the following
commands:

$ gt load uvc.scheme
$ gst-launch v4l2src ! v4l2uvcsink
