New control to pass to userspace the width/height of a pixel. Which is
needed for calibration and lens selection.

+``V4L2_CID_UNIT_CELL_SIZE (struct)``
+    This control returns the unit cell size in nanometers. The struct
+    :c:type:`v4l2_area` provides the width and the height in separate
+    fields to take into consideration asymmetric pixels.
+    This control does not take into consideration any possible hardware
+    binning.
+    The unit cell consists of the whole area of the pixel, sensitive and
+    non-sensitive.
+    This control is required for automatic calibration of sensors/cameras.
