[PATCH 6.18 516/752] media: i2c: ov01a10: Fix the horizontal flip control

From: Hans de Goede <hansg@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit ada20c3db0db4f2834d9515f6105111871f04a4d ]

During sensor calibration I noticed that with the hflip control set
to false/disabled the image was mirrored.

So it seems that the horizontal flip control is inverted and needs to
be set to 1 to not flip (just like the similar problem recently fixed
on the ov08x40 sensor).

Invert the hflip control to fix the sensor mirroring by default.

As the comment above the newly added OV01A10_MEDIA_BUS_FMT define explains
the control being inverted also means that the native Bayer-order of
the sensor actually is GBRG not BGGR, but so as to not break userspace
the Bayer-order is kept at BGGR.
