libcamera: ipa_module_info: add license field

Add a field to IPAModuleInfo to contain the license of the module.

This license field will be used to determine whether the IPA module
should be run in an isolated process or not. If the license is open
source, then the IPA module will be allowed to run without process
isolation, if the user enables it. If the license is not open source,
then the IPA module will be run with process isolation.

Update the dummy IPA and IPA test to conform to the new struct layout.

+ * \brief License of the IPA module
+ *
+ * This license is used to determine whether to force isolation of the IPA in
+ * a separate process. If the license is "Proprietary", then the IPA will
+ * be isolated. If the license is open-source, then the IPA will be allowed to
+ * run without isolation if the user enables it. The license should be an
+ * SPDX license string. The following licenses are currently available to
+ * allow the IPA to run unisolated:
+ *
+ * - GPL-2.0-only
+ * - GPL-2.0-or-later
+ * - GPL-3.0-only
+ * - GPL-3.0-or-later
+ * - LGPL-2.1-only
+ * - LGPL-2.1-or-later
+ * - LGPL-3.0-only
+ * - LGPL-3.0-or-later
+ *
+ * Any other license will cause the IPA to be run isolated.
+ *
+ * \todo Allow user to choose to isolate open source IPAs
