These functions have not been logging the v4l2 formats that they receive and
the ones that the device actually returns. This makes debugging much more
difficult. And multiple pipeline handlers work around this by adding logging
around `setFormat()` calls, but those can be missed, and they don't necessarily
include the path of the device node.

So add these log messages into the `{get,set,try}Format()` methods themselves.

Example:

  DEBUG V4L2 v4l2_videodevice.cpp:859 /dev/video0[13:cap]: trying format: 640x480-YUYV[]/Unset
  DEBUG V4L2 v4l2_videodevice.cpp:882 /dev/video0[13:cap]: returned format: 640x480-YUYV[614400/1280]/Rec709/Rec709/Rec601/Limited
