security: add missing O_CLOEXEC flag to V4L2 device open

Browse source 
File and Resource Handling: Medium

The V4L2 device file descriptor was opened without the O_CLOEXEC flag.
If a child process is subsequently spawned (e.g., via fork+exec), the
video device fd would be inherited, potentially allowing the child
process unauthorized access to the camera device.

Fixed by adding O_CLOEXEC to the open() flags.
