Not all sensors will be able to guarantee a proper initial state.
This may be either because the driver is not properly written,
or (probably unlikely) because the hardware won't support it.

While the right solution in the former case is to fix the sensor
driver, the real world not always allows right solutions, due to lack
of available documentation and support on these sensors.

Let's relax this requirement, and allow the driver to support stream start,
even if the sensor initial sequence wasn't the expected.

Also improve the warning message to better explain the problem and provide
a hint that the sensor driver needs to be fixed.

Changes since v1:
- Changed the warning message to better explain the problem and provide
a hint that the sensor driver needs to be fixed. (Phillip)
- Keep printing the phy_state information (Phillip)
- Do not change csi2_dphy_wait_clock_lane() (Phillip/Steve)

I think this should be reduced, something like:

"LP-11 wait timeout, likely a sensor driver bug, expect capture failures"
