Subject: libcamera: utils: Add helper class for std::chrono::duration

A new utils::Duration class is defined to represent a std::chrono::duration type
with double precision nanosecond timebase. Using a double minimises the loss of
precision when converting timebases. This helper class may be used by IPAs to
represent variables such as frame durations and exposure times.

An operator << overload is defined to help with displaying utils::Duration value
in stream objects. Currently, this will display the duration value in
microseconds.
