+ Set the flicker mode, which determines whether, and how, the AGC/AEC

+ Although implementation dependent, many algorithms for "flicker

+ By default the system will start in FlickerAuto mode if this is

+ description: Automatic flicker period detection and avoidance.
+ The system will automatically determine the most likely value of
+ flicker period, and avoid flicker of this frequency. Once flicker
+ is being corrected, it is implementation dependent whether the
+ system is still able to detect a change in the flicker period.

+ - AeFlickerPeriod:
+ type: int32_t
+ description: Manual flicker period in microseconds.
+ This value sets the current flicker period to avoid. It is used when
+ AeFlickerMode is set to FlickerManual.
+
+ To cancel 50Hz mains flicker, this should be set to 10000 (corresponding
+ to 100Hz), or 8333 (120Hz) for 60Hz mains.
+
+ Setting the mode to FlickerManual when no AeFlickerPeriod has ever been
+ set means that no flicker cancellation occurs (until the value of this
+ control is updated).
+
+ Switching to modes other than FlickerManual has no effect on the
+ value of the AeFlickerPeriod control.
+
+ \sa AeFlickerMode
+
+ - AeFlickerDetected:
+ type: int32_t
+ description: Flicker period detected in microseconds.
+ The value reported here indicates the currently detected flicker
+ period, or zero if no flicker at all is detected.
+
+ When AeFlickerMode is set to FlickerAuto, there may be a period during
+ which the value reported here remains zero. Once a non-zero value is
+ reported, then this is the flicker period that has been detected and is
+ now being cancelled.
+
+ In the case of 50Hz mains flicker, the value would be 10000
+ (corresponding to 100Hz), or 8333 (120Hz) for 60Hz mains flicker.
+
+ It is implementation dependent whether the system can continue to detect
+ flicker of different periods when another frequency is already being
+ cancelled.
