BUG: Motion will not build with newer kernel headers

Kernel headers newer than 2.6.38 have dropped V4L1 support, thus <linux/videodev.h> no longer exists, making building motion impossible. 

Kernel headers newer than 2.6.38 have dropped V4L1 support, thus &#60;linux/videodev.h&#62; no longer exists,
making building motion impossible.

I think we should introduce new configure option to enable/disable V4L1/V4L2 separately, not together as we have now.

Environment

Motion version: 3.2.12
ffmpeg version:  
Shared libraries: ffmpeg, mysql, postgresql
Server OS:
