It's a bit of both, actually. But in the context of S-Video and Composite
connectors
it is a video standard. In the context of a tuner/modulator it would be a TV
standard.
I.e. there is no difference between PAL_B and PAL_[GHIDJ] when it comes to
S-Video and
Composite connectors, but in the context of a tuner/modulator these defines give
additional information about transmission bands, etc.
That said, I think video-standards is too vague, but so is tv-standards. How
about
sdtv-standards? I think that makes a lot of sense since this is really just for
SDTV.
So tvnorms.h becomes sdtv-standards.h.

Move it to display: that matches where the documentation is.
Note that this means that _DT_BINDINGS_MEDIA_TVNORMS_H also becomes
_DT_BINDINGS_DISPLAY_TVNORMS_H (or DISPLAY_SDTV_STANDARDS_H).
