Allow GstLibcameraPool to notify the source when a new buffer has become
available in a previously exhausted buffer pool. This can be used to
resume a src task that got paused because it couldn't acquire a buffer.
Without this change the src task will never resume from pause once the
pool gets exhausted.
To trigger the deadlock (it doesn't happen every time), run:
gst-launch-1.0 libcamerasrc ! queue ! glimagesink

This is an experimental patch adding timestamp support to the libcamerasrc
element. This patch currently assume that the driver timestamp are relative to
the system monotonic clock. Without a reference clock source, the timestamp are
otherwise unusable, and without timestamp only minor use case can be achieved.

Setup the allocation and the release of buffers in the
element. We have one pooling GstAllocator that wraps the
FrameBufferAllocator and tracks the lifetime of FrameBuffer
objects. Then, for each pad we have a GstBufferPool object
which is only used to avoid re-allocating the GstBuffer
structure every time we push a buffer.

Now that we have stream-start and caps, we can now push a segment event to
announce what time will our buffer correlate to. For live sources this is just
an open segment in time format.

This is not expected to work in every possible cases, but should be sufficient as
an initial implementation. What it does is that it turns the StreamFormats into
caps and queries downstream caps with that as a filter.
The result is the subset of caps that can be used. We then keep the first
structure in that result and fixate using the default values found in
StreamConfiguration as a default in case a range is available.
We then validate this configuration and turn the potentially modified
configuration into caps that we push downstream. Note that we trust the order
in StreamFormats as being sorted best first, but this is not currently in
libcamera. A todo has been added in the head of this file as a reminder to fix
that in the core.

This adds code to select and acquire a camera. With this, it is now
possible to run a pipeline like:
gst-launch-1.0 libcamerasrc ! fakesink
Though no buffer will be streamed yet. In this function, we implement the
change_state() virtual method to trigger actions on specific state transitions.
Note that we also return GST_STATE_CHANGE_NO_PREROLL in
GST_STATE_CHANGE_READY_TO_PAUSED and GST_STATE_CHANGE_PLAYING_TO_PAUSED
transitions as this is required for all live sources.

This simply adds the boiler plate for pads on the source element. The
design is that we have one pad, called "src", that will always be
present, and then more pads can be requested prior in READY or less
state. Initially pads have one property "stream-role" that let you
decide which role this pad will have.

This transforms the basic information found in StreamFormats to GstCaps.
This can be handy to reply to early caps query or inside a device
provider. Note that we ignored generated range as they are harmful to
caps negotiation. We also don't simplify the caps for readability
reasons, so some of the discrete value may be included in a range.

The std::atomic_uint64_t specialization was missing from C++14, and only
added to C++17 (see LWG 2441). It was treated as a Defect Report and
backported to earlier C++ standards by gcc and clang, but is missing
from libstdc++ shipped with gcc 5 and gcc 6. Fix the compilation error
by using std::atomic<uint64_t> instead.

The strategy used to find a free cache entry in the first implementation
was not the smartest, it picked the first free entry. This lead to
unwanted performance issues as the cache was not used as good as it
could for imported buffers.
Improve this by adding a last usage sequence number to the cache entries
and change the eviction strategy to use the oldest free entry instead of
the first one it finds.

The BufferSource class can be used by other tests other then the camera
buffer importer test, move it to libtest. The only changes to
BufferSource is for it to be allowed to be split in a header and source
file.
This change makes it necessary for libtest to have access to internal
libcamera headers. As the internal headers already are accessible to all
test cases this does not increase the exposure of libcamera internals to
the test cases.
