media: atomisp: Remove continuous mode support
Continues mode is a special mode where 2 /dev/video devices can be active at the same time. Either the video-preview + video nodes or the viewfinder (for still capture) + capture nodes. For the video-preview + video-recording case modern userspace will use a single stream multiplexed by pipewire. The still-capture case is extra special only starting the preview stream and then relying on a custom ATOMISP_IOC_S_CONT_CAPTURE_CONFIG ioctl to set things up followed by a second stream on to capture the amount of configured still pictures. While running the sensor at full resolution all the time. This case too is better handled with dma-buf + GPU downscaling for the view-finder rather then all this custom special code. Besises this the ioctl expects a bunch of special non error checked conditions to be met otherwise things will crash/hang. The continues mode also involves a special cases all over the code getting in the way of further cleanups and simplifying the code to using just 1 /dev/video# node. So lets remove it and the related custom ATOMISP_IOC_S_CONT_CAPTURE_CONFIG ioctl.
