A new driver snapshot is available.  New device support is added, and 
the beginnings of digital TV support is present (nothing useful yet 
however).  Change history:

  (+) Improve input selection logic so that only selections which make
      sense are made available.  For example, if the device doesn't
      have an FM radio, then there's no radio choice.  Similarly, if
      the device doesn't have a digital tuner, then no dtv choice
      either.  This determination is made for all input choices where
      known.  Device attributes are used to control this.

  (+) Foundation laid for new input choice: dtv.  This eventually will
      play a role in supporting devices that also have a digital
      tuner.

  (+) Implement analog support for Hauppauge HVR-1950.

  (+) Implement experimental support for the OnAir Creator and older
      OnAir USB2 tuners.  These are hybrid devices.  Support here
      however is currently limited to just the analog side.  Only
      television input has been successfully tested, so far.

  (+) Fix Gotview misconfiguation - mark that a cx25840 is in use
      there.  This has implications in various parts of the driver
      that must adjust to the presence of that chip.
