Add generic serial metadata mbus formats. These formats describe data width and packing but not the content itself. The reason for specifying such formats is that the formats as such are fairly device specific but they are still handled by CSI-2 receiver drivers that should not be aware of device specific formats. What makes generic metadata formats possible is that these formats are parsed by software only, after capturing the data to system memory.
