media: Kconfig: cleanup VIDEO_DEV dependencies

media Kconfig has two entries associated to V4L API:
VIDEO_DEV and VIDEO_V4L2.

On Kernel 2.6.x, there were two V4L APIs, each one with its own flag.
VIDEO_DEV were meant to:
1) enable Video4Linux and make its Kconfig options to appear;
2) it makes the Kernel build the V4L core.

while VIDEO_V4L2 where used to distinguish between drivers that
implement the newer API and drivers that implemented the former one.

With time, such meaning changed, specially after the removal of
all V4L version 1 drivers.

At the current implementation, VIDEO_DEV only does (1): it enables
the media options related to V4L, that now has:

menu "Video4Linux options"
visible if VIDEO_DEV

source "drivers/media/v4l2-core/Kconfig"
endmenu

but it doesn't affect anymore the V4L core drivers.

The rationale is that the V4L2 core has a "soft" dependency
at the I2C bus, and now requires to select a number of other
Kconfig options:

config VIDEO_V4L2
tristate
depends on (I2C || I2C=n) && VIDEO_DEV
select RATIONAL
select VIDEOBUF2_V4L2 if VIDEOBUF2_CORE
default (I2C || I2C=n) && VIDEO_DEV

In the past, merging them would be tricky, but it seems that it is now
possible to merge those symbols, in order to simplify V4L dependencies.

Let's keep VIDEO_DEV, as this one is used on some make *defconfig
configurations.

media: Remove depends on HAS_DMA in case of platform dependency

Remove dependencies on HAS_DMA where a Kconfig symbol depends on another
symbol that implies HAS_DMA, and, optionally, on "|| COMPILE_TEST".
In most cases this other symbol is an architecture or platform specific
symbol, or PCI.

Generic symbols and drivers without platform dependencies keep their
dependencies on HAS_DMA, to prevent compiling subsystems or drivers that
cannot work anyway.

This simplifies the dependencies, and allows to improve compile-testing.

Note:
- The various VIDEOBUF*DMA* symbols had to loose their dependencies on
HAS_DMA, as they are selected by several individual drivers.

[media] tw686x: Add support for DMA scatter-gather mode

Now that the driver has the infrastructure to support more
DMA modes, let's add the DMA scatter-gather mode.

In this mode, the device delivers sequential top-bottom
frames. The scatter-gather logic is based on staging's
tw686x-kh driver (by Krzysztof Ha?asa).

[media] tw686x: Add support for DMA contiguous interlaced frame mode

Now that the driver has the infrastructure to support more
DMA modes, let's add the DMA contiguous interlaced frame mode.

In this mode, the DMA P and B buffers are programmed with
the user-provided buffers. When a P (or B) frame is ready,
a new buffer is dequeued into P (or B).

In addition to interlaced fields, the device can also be
programmed to deliver alternate fields. Only interlaced
mode is supported for now.

[media] media: Support Intersil/Techwell TW686x-based video capture cards

This commit introduces the support for the Techwell TW686x video
capture IC. This hardware supports a few DMA modes, including
scatter-gather and frame (contiguous).

This commit makes little use of the DMA engine and instead has
a memcpy based implementation. DMA frame and scatter-gather modes
support may be added in the future.

Currently supported chips:
- TW6864 (4 video channels),
- TW6865 (4 video channels, not tested, second generation chip),
- TW6868 (8 video channels but only 4 first channels using
built-in video decoder are supported, not tested),
- TW6869 (8 video channels, second generation chip).
