To support polling, we need to be able to signal when data is
available to be read (POLLIN), as well as events (POLLPRI). Add the
necessary calls to eventfd to allow signaling POLLIN. We signal POLLIN
by writing writing to the eventfd, and clear it by reading from the
eventfd, upon VIDIOC_DQBUF.
Note that eventfd does not support signaling POLLPRI, so we don't yet
support V4L2 events.

The V4L2 compatibility layer is licensed under the GPL. It is compiled
as a binary separate from libcamera.so, and is loaded into the address
space of processes through LD_PRELOAD to intercept calls to the C
library.
It is our understanding and intent that the GPL license doesn't
propagate to the binaries whose calls are intercepted, considering those
binaries are not derivative work of the V4L2 compatibility layer and are
not designed to be linked to the V4L2 compatibility layer. There is
however a possibly grey area if binaries are packaged with a shell
script wrapper that loads the V4L2 compatibility layer. This could lead
to license-related issues if such packaging is performed by Linux
distributions or system integrators.
To clarify the intent and lift the doubts, relicense the V4L2
compatibility layer under the LGPL. The V4L2 compatibility layer code
itself still benefits from the license protection, while its usage with
third-party binaries is clearly allowed as intended.

const reference
PixelFormat was previously an alias for unsigned int but is now a
class. Make all functions taking PixelFormat do so as a const reference.

In the upcoming FrameBuffer API the memory mapping of buffers will be
left to the user of the FrameBuffer objects. Prepare the V4L2
compatibility layer to this upcoming change to ease conversion to the
new API.

Calling vidioc_s_fmt() calls vidioc_try_fmt() duplicating prinouts.
Breakout try format procedure and call it from both functions.

To clarify code, adopt the following rules for format helpers:
- All variables representing V4L2 pixel formats shall use uint32_t
- All variables representing DRM pixel formats shall use PixelFormat
- Functions returning positive values only shall not have a signed
return type

Add libcamera V4L2 compatibility layer.
This initial implementation supports the minimal set of V4L2 operations,
which allows getting, setting, and enumerating formats, and streaming
frames from a video device. Some data about the wrapped V4L2 video
device are hardcoded.
Add a build option named 'v4l2' and adjust the build system to
selectively compile the V4L2 compatibility layer.
For now we match the V4L2 device node to a libcamera camera based on a
devnum that a pipeline handler may optionally map to a libcamera
camera.
