The frame count is used to skip the gain and exposure filtering when
starting. It thus needs to be reset when configuring the algorithm, to
avoid slower convergence when stopping and restarting.

Since VCM for surface Go 2 (dw9719) had been successfully driven, this
Af module can be used to control the VCM and determine the focus value
based on the IPU3 AF state.
Based on the values from the IPU3 AF buffer, the variance of each focus
step is determined and a greedy approach is used to find the maximum
variance of the AF state and an appropriate focus value.
The grid configuration is implemented as a context. Also, the grid
parameter- AF_MIN_BLOCK_WIDTH is set to 4 (default is 3) since if the
default value is used, x_start (x_start > 640) will be at an incorrect
location of the image (rightmost of the sensor).

The relative luminance is calculated using an iterative process to
account for saturation in the sensor, as multiplying pixels by a gain
doesn't increase the relative luminance by the same factor if some
regions are saturated. Relative luminance estimation doesn't apply a
saturation, which produces a value that doesn't match what the sensor
will output, and defeats the point of the iterative process. Fix it.

The pixels output by the camera normally include a black level, because
sensors do not always report a signal level of '0' for black. Pixels at
or below this level should be considered black and to achieve that, we
need to substract an offset to all the pixels. This can be taken into
account by reading the lowest value of a special region on sensors which
is not exposed to light. This provides a substracting factor to be
able to adjust the expected black levels in the resulting images.
For a camera outputting 10-bit pixel values (in the range 0 to 1023) a
typical black level might be 64. It is a fixed value, obtained by
capturing a raw frame with minimum exposure and gain fixed to 1.0 while
covering the sensor (the darker the better). We consider it good enough
as a very first approximation, until we measure it during a tuning
process and include it in a configuration file
