[PATCH] pac_common: redesign function for finding Start Of Frame

["Németh Márton" <nm127@freemail.hu>]

From: Márton Németh <nm127@freemail.hu>

The original implementation of pac_find_sof() does not always find
the Start Of Frame (SOF) marker. Replace it with a state machine
based design.

The change was tested with Labtec Webcam 2200.
