A lot of SOCs including Texas Instruments Davinci family mainly use
video decoders as input devices. This patch adds a flag
'MEDIA_ENT_T_V4L2_SUBDEV_DECODER' media entity type for decoder's.
Along side updates the documentation for this media entity type.

The patch looks good to me, I would just change this comment to
something like:

/* A converter of analogue video to its digital representation. */

But that's really a nitpicking.
