[PATCH v4 19/38] media: v4l: async: Rename v4l2_async_subdev as v4l2_async_connection

[Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rename v4l2_async_subdev as v4l2_async_connection, in order to
differentiate between the sub-devices and their connections: one
sub-device can have many connections but the V4L2 async framework has so
far allowed just a single one. Connections in this context will later
translate into either MC ancillary or data links.

This patch prepares changing that relation by changing existing users of
v4l2_async_subdev to switch to v4l2_async_connection. Async sub-devices
themselves will not be needed anymore

Additionally, __v4l2_async_nf_add_subdev() has been renamed
__v4l2_async_nf_add_connection().
