media: v4l2-ctrl: Document V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION

Add documentation for the V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION camera
control. The newly added read-only control reports the camera device
orientation relative to the usage orientation of the system the camera
is installed on.

+``V4L2_CID_CAMERA_ORIENTATION (menu)``
+    This read-only control describes the camera orientation by reporting its
+    mounting position on the device where the camera is installed. The control
+    value is constant and not modifiable by software. This control is
+    particularly meaningful for devices which have a well defined orientation,
+    such as phones, laptops and portable devices since the control is expressed
+    as a position relative to the device's intended usage orientation. For
+    example, a camera installed on the user-facing side of a phone, a tablet or
+    a laptop device is said to be have ``V4L2_CAMERA_ORIENTATION_FRONT``
+    orientation, while a camera installed on the opposite side of the front one
+    is said to be have ``V4L2_CAMERA_ORIENTATION_BACK`` orientation. Camera
+    sensors not directly attached to the device, or attached in a way that
+    allows them to move freely, such as webcams and digital cameras, are said to
+    have the ``V4L2_CAMERA_ORIENTATION_EXTERNAL`` orientation.

    This control may be changed to a menu control in the future, if more
    options are required.
