This should mention that this is valid for V4L2_PIX_FMT_H264_SLICE pixelformat
only. And it is a required control (i.e. it must always be present for that
pixelformat). Ditto for the start code control.
Also, the V4L2_PIX_FMT_H264_SLICE should refer to this control and the start
code control as well since these controls effectively are modifiers for the
pixelformat.

Actually, I wonder if there shouldn't be a third option: FIELD_BASED_DECODING
to indicate that the hardware expects the slices of a single field in a buffer
instead of both fields.
Or just stick to FRAME_BASED_DECODING for now but explicitly mention that
in the case of interlaced decoding both fields must be present in the buffer.
A FIELD_BASED_DECODING option can always be added later if necessary.
