V4L/DVB (8078): Introduce "index" attribute for persistent video4linux device nodes 

A number of V4L drivers have a mod param to specify their preferred minors.
This is because it is often desirable for applications to have a static /dev
name for a particular device.  However, using minors has several disadvantages:

  1) the requested minor may already be taken
  2) using a mod param is driver specific
  3) it requires every driver to add a param
  4) requires configuration by hand

This patch introduces an "index" attribute that when combined with udev rules
can create static device paths like this:

/dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video0
/dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video1
/dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video2

$ ls -la /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000\:00\:1d.2-usb-0\:1\:1.0-video0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 2008-04-28 00:02 /dev/v4l/by-path/pci-0000:00:1d.2-usb-0:1:1.0-video0 -> ../../video1

These paths are steady across reboots and should be resistant to rearranging
across Kernel versions.

video_register_device_index is available to drivers to request a
specific index number.
