Drop the imon driver's internal protocol definitions in favor of using
those provided by ir-core. Should make ir-keytable Just Work for
switching protocol on the fly on the imon devices that support both the
native imon remotes and mce remotes.
The imon-no-pad-stabilize pseudo-protocol was dropped as a protocol, and
converted to a separate modprobe option (which it probably should have
been in the first place). On the TODO list is to convert this to an as yet
unwritten protocol-specific options framework.
While the mce remotes obviously map to IR_TYPE_RC6, I've yet to look at
what the actual ir signals from the native imon remotes are, so for the
moment, imon native ir is mapped to IR_TYPE_OTHER. Nailing it down more
accurately is also on the TODO list.

This adds the keymaps for the hardware decode scancodes imon
devices create for their native imon pad (and mini) remotes,
and the hardware scancodes generated by the imon devices when
used with an rc6 windows media center ed. remote.

A few hardware Remote Controller decoders, even using a standard protocol,
aren't able to provide the entire scancode. Due to that, the capability
of using other IR's are limited on those hardware.
Adds a way to indicate to ir-core what are the bits that the hardware
provides, from a scancode, allowing the addition of a complete IR table
to the kernel and allowing a limited support for changing the Remote
Controller on those devices.

The original Remote Controller approach were very messy: a big file,
that were part of ir-common kernel module, containing 64 different
RC keymap tables, used by the V4L/DVB drivers.
Better to break each RC keymap table into a separate module,
registering them into rc core on a process similar to the fs/nls tables.
As an userspace program is now in charge of loading those tables,
adds an option to allow the complete removal of those tables from
kernelspace.
Yet, on embedded devices like Set Top Boxes and TV sets, maybe the
only available input device is the IR. So, we should keep allowing
the usage of in-kernel tables, but a latter patch should change
the default to 'n', after giving some time for distros to add
the v4l-utils with the ir-keytable program, to allow the table
load via userspace.
