2019-07-11libcamera: thread: Add a messaging passing APILaurent Pinchart
Create a new Message class to model a message that can be passed to an object living in another thread. Only an invalid message type is currently defined, more messages will be added in the future. The Thread class is extended with a messages queue, and the Object class with thread affinity.

2019-07-11libcamera: Add thread supportLaurent Pinchart
The new Thread class wraps std::thread in order to integrate it with the Object, Signal and EventDispatcher classes. By default new threads run an internal event loop, and their run() method can be overloaded to provide a custom thread loop.
