libcamera: IPAInterface: Replace C API with the new C++-only API

Remove everything related to the C API, including ipa_context,
ipa_context_wrapper, and IPAInterfaceWrapper. Also remove relevant
documentation.

ipaCreate() provided by IPA implementations, and createInterface()
provided by IPAModule (wrapper around IPA implementation) both now
return a C++ object IPAInterface instead of struct ipa_context.

Although IPAInterfaceWrapper is the only component of libipa, the
skeleton and build files for libipa are retained.

After converting the C API to the C++-only API, make all pipeline
handlers and IPAs use the new API.

libcamera: IPAModule: Replace ipa_context with IPAInterface

With the new IPC infrastructure, we no longer need the C interface as

libcamera: IPAProxy, IPAManager: Switch to one-proxy-per-pipeline scheme

IPAProxy is changed in two major ways:
- Every pipeline has its own proxy, to support each pipeline's IPA
  interface
- IPAProxy implementations always encapsulate IPA modules, and switch
  internally for isolation or threaded

The IPAProxy registration mechanism is removed, as each pipeline will
have its own proxy, so the pipeline can pass the specialized class name
of the IPAProxy to the IPAManager for construction.

IPAManager is changed accordingly to support these changes:
- createIPA is a template function that takes an IPAProxy class, and
  always returns an IPAProxy
- IPAManager no longer decides on isolation, and simply creates an
  IPAProxy instance while passing the isolation flag

Consequently, the old IPAProxy classes (IPAProxyThread and
IPAProxyLinux) are removed. The IPAInterfaceTest is updated to use
the new IPAManager interface, and to construct a ProcessManager as no
single global instance is created anymore.

Also, since the IPAProxy is used regardless of isolation or no

libcamera: IPAManager: Make createIPA return proxy directly

Since every pipeline knows the type of the proxy that it needs, and
since all IPAs are to be wrapped in a proxy, IPAManager no longer needs
to search in the factory list to fetch the proxy factory to construct a
factory. Instead, we define createIPA as a template function, and the
pipeline handler can declare the proxy type when it calls createIPA.

libcamera: IPAProxy: Remove registration mechanism

Implementations of IPA proxies use a registration mechanism to register
themselves with the main IPA proxy factory. This registration declares
static objects, causing a risk of things being constructed before the
proper libcamera facilities are ready. Since each pipeline handler has
its own IPA proxy and knows the type, it isn't necessary to have a proxy
factory. Remove it to alleviate the risk of early construction.
