[PATCH] media: i2c: vd55g1: Register as a sensor sub-device

[George Neacsu via B4 Relay]

From: George Neacsu <geocausa@xxxxxxxxx>

The binding references video-interface-devices.yaml, so a board can
link the sensor to its illuminator with flash-leds. The driver
registers with v4l2_async_register_subdev(), which does not parse that
property, so the flash sub-device is never bound and never appears in
the media graph.

Use v4l2_async_register_subdev_sensor(), which also handles flash-leds
and lens-focus. v4l2_async_unregister_subdev() already cleans up the
sub-notifier it creates.

Tested on a Surface Pro 11 (X1E80100), whose VD55G0 IR sensor (with
Peter Marshall's VD55G0 support applied) drives the PM8550 flash LED
in hardware strobe mode: with this change the leds-qcom-flash V4L2
flash sub-device binds and the IR LED can be armed from userspace.
