With the MC next gen rework, what's left for media_entity_init()
is to just initialize the PADs. However, certain devices, like
a FLASH led/light doesn't have any input or output PAD.
So, there's no reason why calling media_entity_init() would be
mandatory. Also, despite its name, what this function actually
does is to initialize the PADs data. So, rename it to
media_entity_pads_init() in order to reflect that.
The media entity actual init happens during entity register,
at media_device_register_entity(). We should move init of
num_links and num_backlinks to it.

Entities should have one or more functions. Calling it as a
type proofed to not be correct, as an entity could eventually
have more than one type.
So, rename the field as function.
Please notice that this patch doesn't extend support for
multiple function entities. Such change will happen when
we have real case drivers using it.
No functional changes.

Currently, media_entity_init() creates an array with the links,
allocated at init time. It provides a parameter (extra_links)
that would allocate more links than the current needs, but this
is not used by any driver.
As we want to be able to do dynamic link allocation/removal,
we'll need to change the implementation of the links. So,
before doing that, let's first remove that extra unused
parameter, in order to cleanup the interface first.

This patch adds helper functions for registering/unregistering
LED Flash class devices as V4L2 sub-devices. The functions should
be called from the LED subsystem device driver. In case the
support for V4L2 Flash sub-devices is disabled in the kernel
config the functions' empty versions will be used.
