Instead of requesting the default configuration for a set of streams
where the application has to figure out which streams provided by the
camera is best suited for its intended usage, have the library figure
this out by using stream usages.
The application asks the library for a list of streams and a suggested
default configuration for them by supplying a list of stream usages.
Once the list is retrieved the application can fine-tune the returned
configuration and then try to apply it to the camera.
Currently no pipeline handler is prepared to handle stream usages but
nor did it make use of the list of Stream IDs which was the previous
interface. The main reason for this is that all cameras currently only
provide one stream each. This will still be the case but the API will be
prepared to expand both pipeline handlers and applications to support
streams usages.

In preparation of reworking how a default configuration is retrieved
from a camera add stream usages. The usages will be used by applications
to describe how they intend to use a camera and replace the Stream IDs
when retrieving default configuration from the camera using
streamConfiguration().

Request complete by themselves when all the buffers they contain have
completed, connecting the buffer's completed signal to be notified of
buffer completion. While this works for now, it prevents pipelines from
delaying request completion until all metadata is available, and makes
it impossible to ensure that requests complete in the order they are
queued.
To fix this, make request completion handling explicit in pipeline
handlers. The base PipelineHandler class is extended with
implementations of the queueRequest() and stop() methods and gets new
completeBuffer() and completeRequest() methods to help pipeline handlers
tracking requests and buffers.
The three existing pipeline handlers connect the bufferReady signal of
their capture video node to a slot of their respective camera data
instance, where they use the PipelineHandler helpers to notify buffer
and request completion. Request completion is handled synchronously with
buffer completion as the pipeline handlers don't need to support more
advanced use cases, but this paves the road for future work.

There is a need to better control the order of operations an application
performs on a camera for it to function correctly. Add a basic state
machine to ensure applications perform operations on the camera in good
order.
Internal to the Camera states are added; Available, Acquired,
Configured, Prepared and Running. Each state represents a higher state
of configuration of the camera ultimately leading to the highest state
where the camera is capturing frames. Each state supports a subset of
operations the application may perform.

When a signal is connected to a member function slot, the slot is not
disconnected when the slot object is deleted. This can lead to calling a
member function of a deleted object if the signal isn't disconnected
manually by the slot object's destructor.
Make signal handling easier by implementing a base Object class that
tracks all connected signals and disconnects from them automatically
when the object is deleted, using template specialization resolution in
the Signal class.
As inheriting from the Object class may to a too harsh requirement for
Signal usage in applications, keep the existing behaviour working if the
slot doesn't inherit from the Object class. We may reconsider this later
and require all slot objects to inherit from the Object class.

In order to support capture, the camera needs methods to allocate and
free buffers, to start and stop the capture and to queue requests.
Define those interfaces in the Camera class and implement them to call
the corresponding pipeline handler methods.
Once a camera is started the pipeline handler of the camera will begin
processing requests queued to the camera by the application until it
gets stopped.
Once a request is created it can be queued to the camera and the
application will be notified asynchronously once the request is
completed and be able to process all the buffers involved in the
request.
At this point the request objects don't support controls. This will be
extended in the future.

A camera consists of one or more video streams originating from the same
video source. The different streams could for example have access to
different hardware blocks in the video pipeline and therefore be able to
process the video source in different ways.
All static information describing each stream need to be recorded at
camera creation. After a camera is created an application can retrieve
the static information about its streams at any time.
Update all pipeline handlers to register one stream per camera, this
will be extended in the future for some of the pipelines.
