The list of public, IPA and internal header files are stored in three
meson variables, named libcamera_api, libcamera_ipa_api and
libcamera_headers respectively. The lack of uniformity is a bit
confusing. Fix it by renaming those variables to
libcamera_public_headers, libcamera_ipa_headers and
libcamera_internal_headers.

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/.

The libcamera internal headers are located in src/libcamera/include/.
The directory is added to the compiler headers search path with a meson
include_directories() directive, and internal headers are included with
(e.g. for the internal semaphore.h header)
#include "semaphore.h"
All was well, until libcxx decided to implement the C++20
synchronization library. The __threading_support header gained a
#include <semaphore.h>
to include the pthread's semaphore support. As include_directories()
adds src/libcamera/include/ to the compiler search path with -I, the
internal semaphore.h is included instead of the pthread version.
Needless to say, the compiler isn't happy.
Three options have been considered to fix this issue:
- Use -iquote instead of -I. The -iquote option instructs gcc to only
consider the header search path for headers included with the ""
version. Meson unfortunately doesn't support this option.
- Rename the internal semaphore.h header. This was deemed to be the
beginning of a long whack-a-mole game, where namespace clashes with
system libraries would appear over time (possibly dependent on
particular system configurations) and would need to be constantly
fixed.
- Move the internal headers to another directory to create a unique
namespace through path components. This causes lots of churn in all
the existing source files through the all project.
The first option would be best, but isn't available to us due to missing
support in meson. Even if -iquote support was added, we would need to
fix the problem before a new version of meson containing the required
support would be released.
The third option is thus the only practical solution available. Bite the
bullet, and do it, moving headers to include/libcamera/internal/.

In an attempt to clarify the license terms of all files in the libcamera
project, the build system files deserve particular attention. While they
describe how the binaries are created, they are not themselves
transformed into any part of binary distributions of the software, and
thus don't influence the copyright on the binary packages. They are
however subject to copyright, and thus influence the distribution terms
of the source packages.
Most of the meson.build files would not meet the threshold of
originality criteria required for copyright protection. Some of the more
complex meson.build files may be eligible for copyright protection. To
avoid any ambiguity and uncertainty, state our intent to not assert
copyrights on the build system files by putting them in the public
domain with the CC0-1.0 license.

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.

The bound method arguments pack will need to be accessed by the method
invoker in order to retrieve the method return value when using a
blocking connection type. We thus can't delete the pack unconditionally
in the bound method target thread. We also can't delete it
unconditionally in the invoker's thread, as for queued connections the
pack will be used in the target thread after the invoker completes.
This shows that ownership of the arguments pack is shared between two
contexts. As a result, manage it using std::shared_ptr<>.

Switch IPA communication to the plain C API. As the IPAInterface class
is easier to use for pipeline handlers than a plain C API, retain it and
add an IPAContextWrapper that translate between the C++ and the C APIs.
On the IPA module side usage of IPAInterface may be desired for IPAs
implemented in C++ that want to link to libcamera. For those IPAs, a new
IPAInterfaceWrapper helper class is introduced to wrap the IPAInterface
implemented internally by the IPA module into an ipa_context,
ipa_context_ops and ipa_callback_ops.

The C++ standard defines a set of C++ standard library headers, and for
some of them, defines C compatibility headers. The former have a name of
the form <cxxx> while the later are named <xxx.h>. The C++ headers
declare names in the std namespace, and may declare the same names in
the global namespace. The C compatibility headers declare names in the
global namespace, and may declare the same names in the std namespace.
We want to standardise on one set of headers through libcamera, and
don't want to rely on optional behaviour. We can thus either use the C++
headers with an explicit std:: namespace qualifier through the code, or
the C headers without the qualifier.
Both set of headers are defined by the C++ standard, and are thus valid
choices. After weighing pros and cons, we have decided to use the C
compatibility headers, as nobody wanted to write std::uint32_t. Document
this decision.

Bring back auto-generation of control ids. In this version, both the
header and the source files are generated from a single YAML file that
stores all control definitions. This allows centralising controls in a
single file, while the previous version required keeping both
declarations (in a header) and documentation (in a the source) in sync
manually.
Using YAML as a format to store control definitions is a trade-off
between ease of use (there are many YAML parsers available) and
simplicity (XML was considered, but would have lead to more complex
processing). A new build time dependency is added on python3-yaml, which
should be available as a package in all distributions and build
environments.
The YAML format is likely to change over time as we improve
documentation of controls, the first version simply copies the
information currently available. Future improvements should also include
a YAML schema to validate the YAML source file.

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}/.
