Add new fields to struct media_device to add enable_source, and
disable_source handlers, and source_priv to stash driver private
data that is need to run these handlers. The enable_source handler
finds source entity for the passed in entity and check if it is
available, and activate the link using __media_entity_setup_link()
interface. Bridge driver is expected to implement and set these
handlers and private data when media_device is registered or when
bridge driver finds the media_device during probe. This is to enable
the use-case to find tuner entity connected to the decoder entity and
check if it is available, and activate it and start pipeline between
the source and the entity. The disable_source handler deactivates the
link and stops the pipeline. This handler can be invoked from the
media core (v4l-core, dvb-core) as well as other drivers such as ALSA
that control the media device.
