media: Request API is no longer experimental

The Request API is currently used and specified as part of the
Memory-to-memory Stateless Video Decoder Interface [1].

This can now be considered as non-experimental and stable, given
the decoder API has been used by products since a couple years,
supported by several drivers and userspace frameworks,

DO NOT ENABLE THIS OPTION UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
This option enables the Request API for the Media controller and V4L2
interfaces. It is currently needed by a few stateless codec drivers.
There is currently no intention to provide API or ABI stability for
this new API as of yet.
