New formats also need to be documented in one of
Documentation/userspace-api/media/v4l/pixfmt*.rst file. Consider that formats,
specially vendor formats disappears over time, so documentation should be
written as if you are to read that in 10+ years.

I'm also wondering if that should be better located with the "vendor" formats.
Specially that this does not look like a open standard like the other in this
section. A quick search of that format simply gives no results for me. It seems
pretty clear that this is unique to this HW vendor and unlikely to grow withing
other HW or even ever get a software implementation.
