linux/common-config: enable media staging drivers 

This enables the config setting `STAGING_MEDIA`.
With our current default (LTS) kernel 6.12.49,
it adds these modules to the `modules` output:

* dvb-ttpci
* sp8870
* ipu3-imgu
* max96712

We already enabled staging drivers,
as their existence generally won't hurt.
I assume the same holds for the subset of media staging drivers.

The change is also in line with other distributions, e.g.
