I must admit that this RK requirement is a bit weird for slice data.
Though, userspace wise, always adding start-code would be compatible,
as the driver can just offset to remove it.

Another option, because I'm not fan of adding dedicated formats for
this, the RK driver could use data_offset (in mplane v4l2 buffers),
just write a start code there. I like this solution because I would not
be surprise if some drivers requires in fact an HW specific header,
that the driver can generate as needed.
