/**
 * \class EventDispatcher
 * \brief Interface to manage the libcamera events and timers
 *
 * The EventDispatcher class allows the integration of the application event
 * loop with libcamera by abstracting how events and timers are managed and
 * processed.
 *
 * To listen to events, libcamera creates EventNotifier instances and registers
 * them with the dispatcher with registerEventNotifier(). The event notifier
 * \ref EventNotifier::activated signal is then emitted by the dispatcher
 * whenever the event is detected.
 *
 * To set timers, libcamera creates Timer instances and registers them with the
 * dispatcher with registerTimer(). The timer \ref Timer::timeout signal is then
 * emitted by the dispatcher when the timer times out.

 * corresponding event is detected on the notifier's file descriptor. The event

 * unregisterEventNotifier().
 *
 * Registering multiple notifiers for the same file descriptor and event type is

 * be unregistered with unregisterTimer() before it times out, in which case the

 *
 * When the \a timer times out, it is automatically unregistered by the
 * dispatcher and can be registered back as early as from the \ref Timer::timeout
 * signal handlers.
