[media] media: new media controller API for device resource support
Add new media controller API to allocate media device as a device resource. When a media device is created on the main struct device which is the parent device for the interface device, it will be available to all drivers associated with that interface. For example, if a usb media device driver creates the media device on the main struct device which is common for all the drivers that control the media device, including the non-media ALSA driver, media controller API can be used to share access to the resources on the media device. This new interface provides the above described feature. A second interface that finds and returns the media device is added to allow drivers to find the media device created by any of the drivers associated with the device.
