I don't think V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_FIXED_POINT is a good idea. This seems to
relate more to units than control types. We have lots of fixed-point
values in controls already, using the 32-bit and 64-bit integer control
types. They use various locations for the decimal point, depending on
the control. If we want to make this more explicit to users, we should
work on adding unit support to the V4L2 controls.
