Summary

Read V_MODE_INQ and V_RATE_INQ registers for all supported formats
during probe, caching the camera's actual capabilities. Use these
to validate SMODE ioctl requests before writing to the camera.

Writing an unsupported combination caused the camera to
stop responding, requiring a physical power cycle.

Tested with: Apple iSight (external FireWire)
