[media] bq/c-qcam, w9966, pms: move to staging in preparation for removal
These drivers haven't been tested in a long, long time. The hardware is ancient and hopelessly obsolete. These drivers also need to be converted to newer media frameworks but due to the lack of hardware that's going to be impossible. In addition, cheaper and vastly better hardware is available today. So these drivers are a prime candidate for removal. If someone is interested in working on these drivers to prevent their removal, then please contact the linux-media mailinglist. Let's be honest, the age of parallel port webcams and ISA video capture boards is really gone.
