The Atmel ISC and XISC drivers were deprecated and scheduled
for removal by the beginning of 2026. The replacement drivers
(VIDEO_MICROCHIP_ISC and VIDEO_MICROCHIP_XISC) are available
in the main media subsystem.

Remove the Kconfig entries, Makefile rules, MAINTAINERS entries,
and the STAGING_MEDIA_DEPRECATED menuconfig since it is no longer
needed. The source files remain on disk but are no longer compiled
since the build infrastructure is removed.

v3: Updated MAINTAINERS to remove staging/atmel references.
v2: Removed Kconfig and Makefile to fix Media CI build issues.
