You can't upload a key for an unsupported protocol. Also, provided
that hardware decoders in general don't support decoding multiple
protocols at the same time, it is needed to select what protocol it
will be decoding.

So, userspace needs to:
        - retrieve the list of the supported protocols;
        - identify if a given IR is capable of multiple protocols;
        - be able to select what protocol(s) decoder(s) will be enabled.

Cheers,
Mauro.
