pixma: move MF56x0 to MP730 backend

Konstantin Tcepliaev requested to merge f355/backends:pixma-mf56x0 into master

tl;dr this change makes Canon MF5650 work.

long story: I pulled this MF5650 in a pretty good nick out of an e-waste dumpster. upon trying to run scanimage it failed with ETIMEDOUT, but the hardware sounded like it's doing the job, just 10-20 seconds late. a comment regarding CCD calibration in pixma_mp730.c led me to believe that's what is happening - and sure it was.

the device is connected to Raspberry Pi 4 running arm64 Ubuntu 21.04. I've tested scanning in different resolutions from both the flatbed and the ADF, and have not discovered any issues.

I don't have an MF5630 but I'd be really surprised if it was any different, so I moved it too.

if there are additional tests I could do - please let me know.
