Xpra: Ticket #1268: Provide a build option to disable v4l2

Hi, I am using xpra on RHEL 5 with linux-2.6.18.

v4l2 fails to build because it requires V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED_TB which is introduced in linux-2.6.32.

I don't want to use webcam after all. Please add v4l2 to the SWITCH list of setup.py to allow disabling it during build.

r13115 adds the v4l2 switch. (r13116 for v0.17.x branch)

As for V4L2_FIELD_INTERLACED_TB, trunk no longer uses it, r13117 does the same for v0.17.x branch.

@heroxbd: does that work for you?

Both the switch and the headers works on linux-2.6.18. Thanks!
