*
* A camera device can provide frames in different resolutions and formats
* concurrently from a single image source. The Stream class represents
* one of the multiple concurrent streams.
*
* All streams exposed by a camera device share the same image source and are
* thus not fully independent. Parameters related to the image source, such as
* the exposure time or flash control, are common to all streams. Other
* parameters, such as format or resolution, may be specified per-stream,
* depending on the capabilities of the camera device.
*
* Camera devices expose at least one stream, and may expose additional streams
* based on the device capabilities. This can be used, for instance, to
* implement concurrent viewfinder and video capture, or concurrent viewfinder,
* video capture and still image capture.
