media: uapi: videodev2: Add support for AV1 stateful decoder
Introduce a new pixel format, V4L2_PIX_FMT_AV1, to the Video4Linux2(V4L2) API. This format is intended for AV1 bitstreams in stateful decoding/encoding workflows. The fourcc code 'AV10' is used to distinguish this format from the existing V4L2_PIX_FMT_AV1_FRAME, which is used for stateless AV1 decoder implementation.
