To describe in the kernel the connection between devices and their
supporting peripherals (for example, a camera sensor and the vcm
driving the focusing lens for it), add a new type of media link
to introduce the concept of these ancillary links.

Changes since v1:

	- None

changes since the rfc:

	- Split out into its own patch (mostly so it can be followed by patch
	#3, which corrects some media-core code that is otherwise broken by the
	new links)

I'd squash this with 3/6. Apart from that,
