Document the threading model of the Camera class and implement it.
Selected functions become thread-safe, and require a few functions of
the PipelineHandler class to be called through cross-thread invocation
as the pipeline handlers live in the camera manager thread, while the
Camera class is mostly accessed from the application thread. The
PipelineHandler is made to inherit from the Object class to support
this.
Disconnection is currently left out as it is not implemented in pipeline
handlers, and isn't fully supported in the Camera class either. This
will be revisited when implementing proper hotplug support.

Relying on the application event loop to process all our internal events
is a bad idea for multiple reasons. In many cases the user of libcamera
can't provide an event loop, for instance when running through one of
the adaptation layers. The Android camera HAL and V4L2 compatibility
layer create a thread for this reason, and the GStreamer element would
need to do so as well. Furthermore, relying on the application event
loop pushes libcamera's realtime constraints to the application, which
isn't manageable.
For these reasons it's desirable to always run the camera manager, the
pipeline handlers and the cameras in a separate thread. Doing so isn't
too complicated, it only involves creating the thread internally when
starting the camera manager, and synchronizing a few methods of the
Camera class. Do so as a first step towards defining the threading model
of libcamera.
The event dispatcher interface is still exposed to applications, to
enable cross-thread signal delivery if desired.

When inserting an element with emplace(), the element is constructed
in-place with the parameters to the emplace() method being forwarded to
the constructor of the element. For std::map containers, the element is
an std::pair<const Key, T>. The constructors of std::pair<T1, T2> fall
into three categories:
(1) Default, copy and move constructors (and related versions)
(2) Constructors that take lvalue or rvalue references to T1 and T2
(3) A forwarding constructor that forwards parameters to the
constructors of T1 and T2
The first category isn't useful in most cases for std::map::emplace(),
as the caller usually doesn't have an existing std::pair<const Key, T>
for the element to be inserted.
The constructor from the third category is useful to avoid constructing
intermediate Key or T instances when the caller doesn't have them
available. This constructor takes two std::tuple arguments that contain
the arguments for the Key and T constructors, respectively. Due to
template deduction rules, usage of such a constructor couldn't be
deduced by the compiler automatically in all cases, so the constructor
takes a first argument of type std::piecewise_construct_t that lets the
caller force the usage ot the forwarding constructor (also known for
this reason as the piecewise constructor). The caller uses a construct
such as
map.emplace(std::piecewise_construct,
std::forward_as_tuple(args_for_Key, ...),
std::forward_as_tuple(args_for_T, ...));
This syntax is a bit heavy, but is required to construct Key and T
in-place from arguments to their non-default constructor (it is also the
only std::pair non-default constructor that can be used for non-copyable
non-movable types).
When the caller of std::map::emplace() already has references to a Key
and a T, they can be passed to the std::pair piecewise constructor, and
this will create std::tuple instance to wrap the Key and T references
arguments to ultimately pass them to the Key and T copy constructors.
map.emplace(std::piecewise_construct,
std::forward_as_tuple(Key_value),
std::forward_as_tuple(T_value));
While this mechanism works, it's unnecessary complex. A constructor of
std::pair that takes references to Key and T can be used without any
performance penalty, as it will also call the copy constructor of Key
and T. In this case we can use a simpler constructor of std::pair, and
thus a simpler call of std::map::emplace.
map.emplace(Key_value, T_value);
We have a couple occurrences of this above misuse of piecewise
construction. Simplify them, which simplifies the code and reduces the
generated code size.

C++14 is a minor release that doesn't introduce major new concepts or
paradigms compared to C++11, but brings two useful changes for us:
- std::make_unique allows dropping our custom implementation in utils.
- Functions returning constexpr are not assumed to be const anymore,
which is needed to create a standard-conformant span implementation.
All the g++ and clang++ versions we support and test (g++-5 onwards and
clang++6 onwards) support C++14. However, due to a defect in the
original C++14 specification, solved in N4387 ([1]), compilation would
fail on g++-5 due to the use of std::map::emplace() with a non-copyable
value type. It turns out we can easily fix it by switching to the
explicit piecewise emplace() overload.
There is thus really nothing holding back the switch. Let's do it, and
update the coding style accordingly.

to create a simpler API centered around usage of buffers, regardless of

Linux however lacks a centralized allocator at the moment, and not all

It's common for applications to create and queue a new request in a
previous request completion handler. When the new request gets queued to
the RkISP1 pipeline handler it tries to find a parameters and statistic
buffer to be used with the request. The problem is if the pipeline depth
is already filled there are no internal buffers free to be used by the
new request.
This was solved by allocation one more parameters and statistic buffer
then the pipeline depth, this is waste full. Instead free the resources
of the request that has completed before it is signaled to the
application, this way if the pipeline depth is full it can reuse the
internal resources and the wasteful allocation can be removed.

Add a new interface in parallel with the existing Buffer implementation
to also support FrameBuffer. The reason it's added in parallel is to aid
in the migration from Buffer to FrameBuffer throughout libcamera. With
this change discrete parts of libcamera can be migrated and tested
independently.
As the new interface is added in parallel there are some oddities in
this change which will be undone in a follow up patch once libcamera
have migrated away from the Buffer interface.
- There is a nasty hack in V4L2VideoDevice::bufferAvailable(). It is
needed to allow both interfaces to exist and function at the same
time. The idea is if buffers are allocated using the FrameBuffer
interface V4L2VideoDevice::cache_ is set and we know to call the
FrameBuffer 'buffer ready' signal, and likewise if it's not to call
the Buffer variant.
- There is some code duplication between the two interfaces as they aim
to solve the same thing in slightly different ways. As all Buffer
related code is soon to be removed no effort to create code sharing
between them have been made.
- Some function and variables which can't be distinguished by their
argument types have been given a frameBuffer prefix instead of a
buffer prefix. They are clearly documented in the code and will be
renamed to the correct buffer prefix when the Buffer interface is
removed.
