libcamera: base: signal: Disable connect() for functor if args mismatch
If a pointer-to-member is passed to the Signal::connect() function with
arguments that don't match the Signal type, the pointer-to-member
version of connect() will not match during template argument resolution,
but the functor version will. This results in a compilation error in the
BoundMethodFunctor class, due to the pointer-to-member not being a
functor and thus not being callable directly. The error messages are
quite cryptic. With the following error applied,

Improve error reporting by disabling the functor version of connect()
when the Func argument isn't invocable with the Signal arguments. gcc
will then complain with
../../test/signal.cpp:110:36: error: no matching function for call to ‘libcamera::Signal<>::connect(SignalTest*, void (SignalTest::*)(int))’
110 | signalVoid_.connect(this, &SignalTest::slotInteger1);

and clang with
../../test/signal.cpp:110:15: error: no matching member function for call to 'connect'
signalVoid_.connect(this, &SignalTest::slotInteger1);
~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~
which are more readable.
This change requires usage of std::is_invocable<>, which is only
available starting in C++17. This is fine for usage of the Signal class
within libcamera, as the project is compiled with C++17, but we try to
keep the public API compatible C++14. Condition the additional checks
based on the C++ version.
