V4L/DVB (5461): Pwc: cisco VT Camera support

I have a Cisco VT Camera, and it was just collecting dust.  I decided to
try connecting it to my Linux box at home.

Just a disgression about the product.  The Cisco VT Camera is a webcam
Cisco sold to work with their IP phone hardware and software.  It's mostly
useless on Windows, as it interfaces only to Cisco software.  You can find
some for cheap on eBay...

Physically, it's just a Logitech Pro 4000.  The only difference with the
Pro 4000 is the Cisco logo and that it's grey like the Pro 3000.  I believe
Cisco is now selling the Cisco VT Camera II, which look to be something
else...

So, assuming that it was a Pro 4000 inside, I created the little patch
attached.

I'm new to webcam under Linux, but I managed to get an image from it using
xawtv, and the image looked all right, so I consider that a success.  The
imaged seemed a bit small and I could not get the microphone driver loaded,
but I assume it's my lack of experience.  Note that I did not try any other
type_id, but this one works great.
