media: vpfe_capture: remove deprecated davinci drivers 



The vpfe_capture drivers do not use the vb2 framework for streaming
video, instead they use the old vb1 framework and nobody stepped in to
convert these drivers to vb2.

The hardware is very old, so the decision was made to remove them
altogether since we want to get rid of the old vb1 framework.

These are one of the few drivers still not using the vb2

framework, so these drivers are now deprecated with the intent of

removing them altogether by the beginning of 2023.



In order to keep these drivers they have to be converted to vb2.
