[PATCH v5 1/2] media: uvcvideo: Support partial control reads

[Ricardo Ribalda <ribalda@chromium.org>]

Some cameras, like the ELMO MX-P3, do not return all the bytes
requested from a control if it can fit in less bytes.
Eg: Returning 0xab instead of 0x00ab.
usb 3-9: Failed to query (GET_DEF) UVC control 3 on unit 2: 1 (exp. 2).

Extend the returned value from the camera and return it.
