libcamera: v4l2_subdevice: Expose media bus format info as internal API

The V4L2SubdeviceFormatInfo structure, internal to the
v4l2_subdevice.cpp compilation unit, contains information about media
bus formats that will be useful in other parts of libcamera. To prepare
for this, expose the structure in the v4l2_subdevice.h header and turn
it into a class with a similar design as PixelFormatInfo.

+ *
+ * \var MediaBusFormatInfo::bitsPerPixel
+ * \brief The average number of bits per pixel
+ *
+ * The number of bits per pixel averages the total number of bits for all
+ * colour components over the whole image, excluding any padding bits or
+ * padding pixels.
+ *
+ * For formats that transmit multiple or fractional pixels per sample, the
+ * value will differ from the bus width.
+ *
+ * Formats that don't have a fixed number of bits per pixel, such as compressed
+ * formats, report 0 in this field.
