[PATCH v4 11/11] media: imx8-isi: Enable RAW10/12/14 output LSB alignment on i.MX952

Before i.MX952, the ISI RAW10/12/14 output formats are always
MSB-aligned, which is not compatible with the V4L2 RAW format
definition that requires LSB alignment.

>From i.MX952 onwards, the ISI introduces CHNL_CTRL_RAW_OUT_LSB_ALIGN
to select whether RAW10/12/14 outputs are MSB or LSB aligned. Enable
it so the driver produces correct V4L2-compatible LSB-aligned output.

Changes in v4:
- Split RAW_IN_MSB_ALIGN into a separate preceding patch
- Split RAW format table and RAW14 changes into separate preceding patches
- Move isi_out_raw_shifted() to regs.h in the preceding workaround patch
- Rewrite commit message

Changes in v3:
- Use CHNL_IMG_CTRL_FORMAT_MASK instead of the removed per-platform format_mask (Laurent)
- Derive raw_out_lsb from the model field instead of dedicated platform data (Laurent)
- Clarify the CHNL_IMG_CTRL_FORMAT_RAW14 comment: the format is
  documented on i.MX{8ULP,91,93,95,952} but only used on i.MX952
- Update the mxc_isi_channel_set_output_format() comment wording
- Rewrite commit message
- Add Reviewed-by tag from Frank
