*
* This function is called while camera is running for every frame processed by
* the ISP, to process statistics generated from that frame by the ISP.
* Algorithms shall use this data to run calculations and update their state
* accordingly.
*
* Processing shall not take an undue amount of time, and any extended or
* computationally expensive calculations or operations must be handled
* asynchronously in a separate thread.
*
* Algorithms can store state in their respective IPAFrameContext structures,
* and reference state from the IPAFrameContext of other algorithms.
*
* \todo Historical data may be required as part of the processing.
* Either the previous frame, or the IPAFrameContext state of the frame
* that generated the statistics for this operation may be required for
* some advanced algorithms to prevent oscillations or support control
* loops correctly. Only a single IPAFrameContext is available currently,
* and so any data stored may represent the results of the previously
* completed operations.
*
* Care shall be taken to ensure the ordering of access to the information
* such that the algorithms use up to date state as required.
