[media] v4l2-ctrls: remove unclaimed v4l2_ctrl_add_ctrl() interface

v4l2_ctrl_add_ctrl() interface has no users since its introduction in
commit 0996517cf8ea ("V4L/DVB: v4l2: Add new control handling framework")
and its functionality is covered by v4l2_ctrl_new() and derivative
interfaces, so it is safe to remove the interface from the kernel.

 	volume = v4l2_ctrl_new_std(&video_ctrl_handler, &ops, V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME, ...);

-	v4l2_ctrl_add_ctrl(&radio_ctrl_handler, volume);
 
 What you should not do is make two identical controls for two handlers.
 For example:
