The IPA headers are installed into $prefix/include/libcamera/ipa/, but
are located in the source tree in include/ipa/. This requires files
within libcamera to include them with
#include <ipa/foo.h>
while a third party IPA would need to use
#include <libcamera/ipa/foo.h>
Not only is this inconsistent, it can create issues later if IPA headers
need to include each other, as the first form of include directive
wouldn't be valid once the headers are installed.
Fix the problem by moving the IPA headers to include/libcamera/ipa/.

Add support for camera sensor information in the libcamera IPA protocol.
Define a new 'struct ipa_sensor_info' structure in the IPA context and
use it to perform translation between the C and the C++ API.
Update the IPAInterface::configure() operation to accept a new
CameraSensorInfo parameter and port all users of that function to
the new interface.

Add a new IPASettings class to pass IPA initialization settings through
the IPAInterface::init() method. The settings currently only contain the
name of a configuration file, and are expected to be extended later.

While closed-source IPA modules will always be sandboxed, open-source
IPA modules may be run in the main libcamera process or be sandboxed,
depending on platform configuration. These two models exhibit very
different timings, which require extensive testing with both
configurations.
When run into the main libcamera process, IPA modules are executed in
the pipeline handler thread (which is currently a global CameraManager
thread). Time-consuming operations in the IPA may thus slow down the
pipeline handler and compromise real-time behaviour. At least some
pipeline handlers will thus likely spawn a thread to isolate the IPA,
leading to code duplication in pipeline handlers.
Solve both issues by always proxying IPA modules. For open-source IPA
modules that run in the libcamera process, a new IPAProxyThread class is
added to run the IPA in a separate thread.

Add two new operations to the IPA interface to start and stop it. The
intention is that these functions shall be used by the IPA to perform
actions when the camera is started and stopped.

Doxygen generates the following warning:

Fix it by disabling link generation by prefixing the function name with

clear. Explicitly document that they are borrowed from the caller and

Switch the IPA interfaces and implementations to use the Framebuffer
interface.
- The IPA interface is switched to use the simpler FrameBuffer::Plane
container when carrying dmabuf descriptions (fd and length) over the
pipeline/IPA boundary.
- The RkISP1 IPA implementation takes advantage of the new simpler and
safer (better control over file descriptors) FrameBuffer interface.

When an IPA module is loaded without isolation and implements the
IPAInterface internally, going through ipa_context_ops is a waste of
time. Add an operation to retrieve the IPAInterface, and use it directly
in the IPAContextWrapper.
For debugging purpose, make it possible to forcing usage of the C API by
defining the LIBCAMERA_IPA_FORCE_C_API environment variable.

IPA modules have to implement a public ipaCreate() function, but its
prototype isn't declared in any header file. This allows for modules to
get the prototype wrong without being warned by the compiler. Fix it.

The C++ objects that are expected to convey data through the IPA API
will have associated methods that would require IPAs to link to
libcamera. Even though the libcamera license allows this, suppliers of
closed-source IPAs may have a different interpretation. To ease their
mind and clearly separate vendor code and libcamera code, define a plain
C IPA API. The corresponding C objects are stored in plain C structures
or have their binary format documented, removing the need for linking to
libcamera code on the IPA side.
The C API adds three new C structures, ipa_context, ipa_context_ops and
ipa_callback_ops. The ipa_context_ops and ipa_callback_ops contain
function pointers for all the IPA interface methods and signals,
respectively. The ipa_context represents a context of operation for the
IPA, and is passed to the IPA oparations. The IPAInterface class is
retained as it is easier to use than a plain C API for pipeline
handlers, and wrappers will be developed to translate between the C and
C++ APIs.
Switching to the C API internally will be done in a second step.

Now that the V4L2ControlList is merely a helper to construct a
ControlList for V4L2 controls, without any data member, all controls can
be transferred between pipeline handlers and IPAs using ControlList
only. Remove the v4l2controls member for IPAOperationData and use the
control member instead.

The ipa includes are located in include/libcamera/ipa/. This gives an
incorrect impression that they are a sub-part of the rest of the
libcamera API, while they are the API towards the IPA the same way that
include/libcamera/ contains the API towards applications. To clarify
this, move them to include/ipa/.
The IPA headers are however still part of libcamera, so installing them
to ${prefix}/include/ipa/ would make little sense. To fix this, move the
application facing API to ${prefix}/include/libcamera/libcamera/ when
installed, and the IPA to ${prefix}/include/libcamera/ipa/. When major
versions of libcamera will be released, they could then be installed
side by side in ${prefix}/include/libcamera-${version}/.

Define an IPAInterface class which will contain an IPA implementation.
The methods that the IPAInterface exposes form the interface to the IPA
implementation, hence the name. IPA module shared objects will implement
this class.
This also means that IPA module shared objects must be implemented in
C++, so remove the C test IPA module.
