[sane-devel] sane.h and commented out definitions for next version SANE

[m. allan noah]

At this point, I dont think we want to enshrine anything as being part
of SANE2. The proper fix is to either remove that code, or stop
shipping sane-frontends altogether. Frankly, scanimage should be made
to do everything scanadf can do, and the rest of the frontends are not
really maintained.
