media: staging: atomisp: Update TODO regarding sensors

There was no specific item regarding what should be done to sensor, lens
and flash drivers. Add one, to replace the vague item denoting support
only to particular sensor, lens and flash devices.

8. Switch to V4L2 async API to set up sensor, lens and flash devices.
Control those devices using V4L2 sub-device API without custom
extensions.
Limitations: 9. Switch to standard V4L2 sub-device API for sensor and lens. In
particular, the user space API needs to support V4L2 controls as
defined in the V4L2 spec and references to atomisp must be removed from
these drivers.
10. Use LED flash API for flash LED drivers such as LM3554 (which already
has a LED class driver).
