[media] vivid: add the kthread code that controls the video rate
Add the kthread handlers for video/vbi capture and video/vbi output. These carefully control the rate at which frames are generated (video capture) and accepted (video output). While the short-term jitter is around the order of a jiffie, in the long term the rate matches the configured framerate exactly. The capture thread handler also takes care of the video looping and of capture and overlay support. This is probably the most complex part of this driver due to the many combinations of crop, compose and scaling on the input and output, and the blending that has to be done if overlay support is enabled as well.
