 * \brief Create pipelines and cameras from a set of media devices

 * devices present in the system, and once all those devices can be acquired,
 * create corresponding Camera instances.
 *
 * Every subclass of PipelineHandler shall be registered with libcamera using
 * the REGISTER_PIPELINE_HANDLER() macro.
