Provide a means for V4L2 device instances to set the fd_ explicitly.
This allows for V4L2Devices to operate when they must use an external open() call.

Hi Kieran,

Thank you for the patch.

How about the following ?

 * This method allows a device to provide an already opened file descriptor
 * referring to the V4L2 device node, instead of opening it with open(). This
 * can be used for V4L2 M2M devices where a single video device node is used for
 * both the output and capture devices, or when receiving an open file
 * descriptor in a context that doesn't have permission to open the device node
 * itself.
 *
 * This method and the open() method are mutually exclusive, only one of the two
 * shall be used for a V4L2Device instance.

Thanks, this gives some more context on why this change is needed
