The qcam application installs a custom event dispatcher based on the Qt
event loop. As the camera manager now creates an internal thread, it
doesn't use that event dispatcher of the application thread at all.
Furthermore, the custom event dispatcher is buggy, as it doesn't
dispatch messages posted to the main thread's event loop. This isn't an
issue as no messages are posted there in the first place, but would
cause incorrect behaviour if we were to use that feature (for instance
to deliver signals from the camera manager thread to the application
thread).
Fixing the event dispatcher requires a change in the libcamera public
API, as there's currently no way to dispatch messages using the public
API (Thread::dispatchMessages() is not exposed). This isn't worth it at
the moment, so just remove the custom event dispatcher. If qcam later
needs the libcamera request and buffer completion signals to be
delivered in the application thread, it will need to handle that
internally, using Qt's cross-thread signal delivery.

The QtEventDispatcher timers implementation depends on Qt 5.9 or newer
due to the use of QObject::startTimer(std::chrono::milliseconds).
Support earlier Qt versions by using the QObject::startTimer(int)
version instead.

The libcamera timers are single-shot timers. They are started with a
duration, but fire once only, not based on an interval. Remove the
interval concept by removing the interval() method, and rename other
occurences of interval to duration.

The timer signal was never emitted in QtEventDispatcher::timerEvent(),
this results in timers not working as designed running under the Qt
event loop. Fix this by emitting the signal on timeout.

Stopping the timer will reset the Timer::deadline_ field to 0 fixing
potential bugs and call QtEventDispatcher::unregisterTimer() which will
take care of the cleanup.

If an unregistered timer is given to QtEventDispatcher::unregisterTimer()
an error is printed and Qt gets confused and locks up. Fix this by
following the libcamera documentation that passing a unregistered timer
is a no-op.

qcam is a sample camera GUI application based on Qt. It demonstrates
integration of the Qt event loop with libcamera.
The application lets the user select a camera through the GUI, and then
captures a single stream from the camera and displays it in a window.
Only streams in YUYV formats are supported for now.
