The Raspberry Pi IPA module depends on boost only to parse the JSON
tuning data files. As libcamera depends on libyaml, use the YamlParser
class to parse those files and drop the dependency on boost.

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS has been released with meson 0.61.2, and it is easy to
install a recent version of meson with python-pip, so let's update the
required meson version to get rid of the Android compilation
limitation.
Additionally, going to meson 0.55 gives the ability to have patch files
for git-wraps which is useful for Python bindings.
0.56 brings meson.project_source_root() and meson.project_build_root(),
allowing us to get rid of the deprecated meson.source_root() and
meson.build_root().
So, let's update the required meson version to 0.56.

Introduce YamlParser as a helper to convert contents of a yaml file to
a tree based structure for easier reading, and to avoid writing parser
with raw yaml tokens. The class is based on libyaml, and only support
reading but not writing a yaml file.
The interface is inspired by Json::Value class from jsoncpp:

There have been many reports of facing difficulties with the gstreamer
element and getting the libcamerasrc to successfully negotiate with
other gstreamer elements.
This is often due to the current limitations on colorimetry and frame
rate support in the element, and can usually be worked around by
specifying those explicitly in the caps.
Provide a tested example to capture, encode, and stream images as jpeg
to a remote device in the gstreamer section of the getting started
readme.

Building the libcamera Android layer currently makes use of features
from meson 0.55. The core libcamera framework in the default configuration
without android enabled uses the 'summary' feature available in 0.53, and
is the lowest supportable meson version if the Android HAL is excluded.
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS currently provides meson 0.53 and represents an
acceptable minimum version to support. Platforms utilising the Android
component will have full control over their build environment and can
ensure that they provide a more recent version of meson.
Reduce the supported meson version for the project to 0.53 to facilitate
building on more distributions without having to manually update the
meson package.
Meson will output a warning that features not available in 0.53 are used
if the Android HAL is enabled. This is considered as an acceptable
middleground to improve the experience on the latest Ubuntu LTS, until
22.04 LTS is released and provides a newer meson version.

libgtest-dev is provided as a static library at least by Debian 10.
The compiler and linker to create the static library might be
different from ones used for libcamera. This causes a problem
upon linking.
This puts gtest code to subprojects, builds the code and link it
for lc-compliance. However, libgtest is locally built as a library on
ChromeOS and thus the used compiler and linker are the same as one
used for libcamera. We don't do these on ChromeOS build environment.

libcamera now has the ability to use libdw and libunwind to generate
backtraces, in addition to the glibc backtrace() function. libdw
provides the most detailed output and is highly recommended, but is
limited to parsing backtraces, it doesn't support capturing them.
libunwind and backtrace() provide both features. If backtrace() is
available, libunwind will not bring any improvement.

When the libcamera project was started, we had no public git tree hosted
on git.libcamera.org. The problem has been addressed a while ago, and
the git.linuxtv.org libcamera repository is now a mirror of the main git
tree. The mirror is useful to benefit from the linuxtv.org automated
compile tests, but it can also confuse users who don't know where the
official version is. To try and clarify this, use the git.libcamera.org
URL consistently through the project.
This doesn't void the validatity of the linuxtv.org repository which
will continue to mirror the libcamera.org repository.

It gives the following error on ninja -C build install:

After uninstalling meson using pip3 and installing it again using pip
without --user argument solved the issue.

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.
