media: ddbridge: Kconfig option to control the MSI modparam default
It is known that MSI interrupts - while working quite well so far - can still cause issues on some hardware platforms (causing I2C timeouts due to unhandled interrupts). The msi variable/option is set to 1 by default. So, add a Kconfig option prefixed with "EXPERIMENTAL" that will control the default value of that modparam, defaulting to off for a better user experience and (guaranteed) stable operation "per default".

+ Use PCI MSI (Message Signaled Interrupts) per default. Enabling this
+ might lead to I2C errors originating from the bridge in conjunction
+ with certain SATA controllers, requiring a reload of the ddbridge
+ module. MSI can still be disabled by passing msi=0 as option, as
+ this will just change the msi option default value.

+ If you're unsure, concerned about stability and don't want to pass
+ module options in case of troubles, say N.
