[PATCH v6 03/14] media:Add v4l2 buf flag codec data.

From: Ming Qian
Date: Wed Aug 11 2021 - 04:44:30 EST


In some decoing scenarios, application may queue a buffer
that only contains codec config data, and the driver needs to
know whether is it a frame or not.
So we add a buf flag to tell this case.
