v4l2: Provide libcamerify wrapper script
Support easier usage of the v4l2 compatibility layer with a script that handles the LD_PRELOAD for applications. The wrapper can be prefixed to launch any application with the preload set: $ libcamera-v4l2 v4l2-ctl --list-devices \_SB_.PCI0.GP13.XHC0.RHUB.PRT4- (libcamera:0): /dev/video0 platform/vimc.0 Sensor B (libcamera:1): /dev/video2 /dev/video3 /dev/video4 Specifying '-d' once before the command to run will enable V4L2Compat layer debug output from libcamera. Specifying '-d' twice will enable all debug levels from all libcamera components and provide a very detailed log for analysis.
