This patch allows obtaining a black level from a tuning file in addition
to the camera sensor helper.  If both of them define a black level, the
one from the tuning file takes precedence.

The use cases are:

- A user wants to use a different black level, for whatever reason.

- There is a sensor without known gains but with a known black level.
  Because a camera sensor helper cannot be defined without specifying
  gains, the only way to specify the black level is using the tuning
  file.  Software ISP uses its fallback gain handling in such a case.

It's not essential - but for converting between bit depths - I would
think using bit shifting would be clearer (keep this however you prefer
though).

	/*
	 * Convert 16 bit values from the tuning file to 8 bit black
	 * level for the SoftISP.
	 */
	.... = blackLevel.value() >> 8;

might be more clear than
	.... = blackLevel.value() / 256;

What's pdm: blll? Should this be removed? or changed to be Debug level ?


For the update itself with those handled, I think having the Tuning File
able to specify the black level is helpful:

A forgotten statement for checking the value, should be removed.

Ack, so with that removed, CI is clear - so we can merge the next
version!
