2020-03-07gst: libcamerasrc: Implement timestamp supportNicolas Dufresne
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.

2020-03-07gst: libcamerasrc: Implement initial streamingNicolas Dufresne
With this patch, the element is now able to push buffers to the next element in the graph. The buffers are currently missing any metadata like timestamp, sequence number. This will be added in the next commit.

2020-03-07gst: libcamerasrc: Allocate and release buffersNicolas Dufresne
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.

2020-03-07gst: libcamerasrc: Push segment eventNicolas Dufresne
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.

2020-03-07gst: libcamerasrc: Implement minimal caps negotiationNicolas Dufresne
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.

2020-03-07gst: libcamerasrc: Send stream start eventNicolas Dufresne
Prior to sending caps, we need to send a stream-start event. This requires generating a stream and a group id. The stream id is random for live sources and the group id is shared across all pads.

2020-03-07gst: libcamerasrc: Add a task for the streaming threadNicolas Dufresne
Use a GstTask as our internal streaming thread. Unlike GstBaseSrc, we will be running a streaming thread at the element level rather than per pad. This is needed to combine buffer request for multiple pads.

2020-03-07gst: libcamerasrc: Implement selection and acquisitionNicolas Dufresne
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.

2020-03-07gst: Add pads to the sourceNicolas Dufresne
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.
