[media] uvcvideo: Do not use usb_set_interface on bulk EP
The UVC specification uses alternate setting selection to notify devices of stream start/stop. This breaks when using bulk-based devices, as the video streaming interface has a single alternate setting in that case, making video stream start and video stream stop events to appear identical to the device. Bulk-based devices are thus not well supported by UVC. The webcam built in the Asus Zenbook UX302LA ignores the set interface request and will keep the video stream enabled when the driver tries to stop it. If USB autosuspend is enabled the device will then be suspended and will crash, requiring a cold reboot. USB trace capture showed that Windows sends a CLEAR_FEATURE(HALT) request to the bulk endpoint when stopping the stream instead of selecting alternate setting 0. The camera then behaves correctly, and thus seems to require that behaviour. Replace selection of alternate setting 0 with clearing of the endpoint halt feature at video stream stop for bulk-based devices. Let's refrain from blaming Microsoft this time, as it's not clear whether this Windows-specific but USB-compliant behaviour was specifically developed to handle bulkd-based UVC devices, or if the camera just took advantage of it.
