[PATCH v4, 0/8] Support H264 multi-core encoder on MT8195

MT8195 has two H264 encoder hardware, named core0 and core1, this two
cores can encode two input frames separately at the same time to achieve
higher performance.

This series of patches are used to enable the two H264 encoder cores,
the difference between encoding process before and after enable two
cores is just like as below:

As-Is: Synchronous
V4L2_VIDIOC_QBUF#0 --> device_run(triger encoder) --> wait encoder IRQ
-->
encoding done with result --> job_finish
V4l2_VIDIOC_QBUF#1 --> device_run(triger encoder) --> wait encoder IRQ
-->
encoding done with result --> job_finish
...
To-Be: Asynchronous
V4L2_VIDIOC_QBUF#0 --> device_run(triger encoder) --> job_finish
..V4l2_VIDIOC_QBUF#1 --> device_run(triger encoder) --> job_finish
(venc core0 may encode done here, done the encoding result to client)
V4L2_VIDIOC_QBUF#2 --> device_run(triger encoder) --> job_finish.

changes compared with v3:
- rebase to the newer linux media stage.
- add a capability to indicate scp firmware support multi-core.
- probe core0 as main device, core1 as sub-device.

changes compared with v2:
- update venc core dt-bindings, add two new properties for current
  usage.
- parse venc multi_core mode from device tree.
- rebase to the newer linux media stage.

changes compared with v1:
- of_platform_populate was used in place of the component framework.
- new yaml file for venc cores.
- some modifications for patch v1's review comments.
