gst: libcamerasrc: Implement timestamp support

This is an experimental patch adding timestamp support to the libcamerasrc
element. This patch currently assume that the driver timestamp are relative to
the system monotonic clock. Without a reference clock source, the timestamp are
otherwise unusable, and without timestamp only minor use case can be achieved.
