libv4l2 directly wraps the system call if it does not know the file
descriptor. There is no need for VLC to reinvent the wheel.

"libv4l *always* reports emulated formats to ENUM_FMT,
 except when conversion is disabled."

When libv4l2 is used:
 * open the device with close-on-exec descriptor flag,
 * convert from UTF-8 to local path.

avoid having extern Open() symbol defined multiple times in static builds

The largest change here consists of building the plug-ins cache after
vlc-cache-gen (instead of after modules previously).

Better patch welcome

Note that VLC does not support more than one alias per item.

...rather than in all modules/* directories
