[media] media-entity.h: rename entity.type to entity.function
Entities should have one or more functions. Calling it as a type proofed to not be correct, as an entity could eventually have more than one type. So, rename the field as function. Please notice that this patch doesn't extend support for multiple function entities. Such change will happen when we have real case drivers using it. No functional changes.
