Commit b817bcec6b53 ("libcamera: Auto generate version information")
generates version information in order to automatically include it
various locations (Sphinx and Doxygen documentation, libcamera::version
variable available at runtime, and version.h available at compile time).
Unfortunately this causes lots of unnecessary rebuilds when modifying
the git tree state, which hinders development.
The problem is caused by the generated version.h being listed as a
dependency for the whole libcamera. This is required as meson (to the
best of my knowledge) doesn't provide a way to explicitly specify the
dependency of a single object file (camera_manager.o in this case, as
camera_manager.cpp is the only consumer of the generated version string)
on the custom target used to generate version.h. The dependency can't be
automatically detected at build time, like dependencies on normal
headers that are generated by parsing the source, because the version.h
header may not exist yet. The build could then fail in a racy way.
This change attempts at solving the issue by generating a version.cpp
instead of a version.h to set the git-based version. This minimises the
number of files that need to be rebuild when then git tree state
changes, while retaining the main purpose of the original automatic
version generation, the ability to access the git-based version string
at runtime. We however lose the ability to access git-based version
information at build time in an application building against libcamera,
but there is no expected use case for this.
The version string is moved from the libcamera namespace to the
CameraManager class in order to avoid including version.h inside
libcamera (in version.cpp and in camera_manager.cpp), which would create
dependencies causing more rebuild steps, as described above.
On the other hand, major, minor and patch level version numbers are
useful at build time. This commit changes the generation of version.h in
order to add three macros named LIBCAMERA_VERSION_MAJOR,
LIBCAMERA_VERSION_MINOR and LIBCAMERA_VERSION_PATCH for this purpose.
version.h is not included by any other libcamera header or source file,
and thus doesn't force a rebuild of the library.
The Sphinx and Doxygen documentation keep their git-based version
information, which is set during the configuration of the build and then
doesn't track git commits. We may want to investigate how to improve
this, but given that git-based version for the documentation has very
few use cases outside of tagging nightly builds, this isn't considered
an issue at the moment.
The documentation install directory now uses the base version string, in
order to avoid increasing the number of documentation directories
needlessly. This shouldn't cause any issue as the API should not change
without a change to the version number.
The version number generation and handling code now also standardises
the version variables to not start with a 'v' prefix in meson, in order
to simplify their handling. The prefix is added when generating the
relevant files.
Note that we go back to specifying the fallback version in the main
meson.build, in the call to the project() function. For the time being I
believe this should be a good compromise to avoid unnecessary
recompilation, and moving the fallback version to a different file for
tarball releases can be built on top of this.

Generate a version string, and provide a global string object which
allows applications to interrogate the current libcamera version
information.
The version header is automatically updated by meson on each build.
The string roughly follows the semver [0] conventions of
major.minor.patch-label as a value.
[0] https://semver.org/
A script (utils/gen-version.sh) is provided which is modelled upon the
processing from autoconf's git-version-gen. The gen-version.sh script
will look for tags in the form vX.Y as starting points for the version
string. While the repository does not have any matching tags, v0.0 will
be assumed, resulting in versions with both major and minor being set to
'0', and the patch count resulting from the number of patches in the
history to that point.
Finally, a uniquely identifying shortened hash is provided from git:
v0.0.509+0ec0edf7

Add a set of data types to support controls:
- ControlValue stores a control type and value in a generic way
- ControlId enumerates all the control identifiers
- ControlIdentifier declares the types of a control and map their names
- ControlInfo stores runtime information for controls
- ControlList contains a set of control info and value pairs
The control definitions map is generated from the controls documentation
to ensure that the two will always be synchronised.

Building the documentation reports warnings,

WARNING: Project specifies a minimum meson_version '>= 0.40' but uses features which were added in newer versions:

Due to the usage of the directive configure_file { install: false } in
Documentation/meason.build which is introduced in meson 0.50. As we do

need to explicitly state that it should not be installed. Silence the

libcamera depends on libudev for device enumeration. It is however
useful to allow building documentation without requiring the dependency
to be installed. Make the libudev dependency optional and compile the
udev-based device enumerator out when libudev is not present.
Note that while libcamera will compile without libudev, it will not be
able to enumerate devices. A sysfs-based device enumerator is planned as
a fallback but not implemented yet.

When a signal is connected to a member function slot, the slot is not
disconnected when the slot object is deleted. This can lead to calling a
member function of a deleted object if the signal isn't disconnected
manually by the slot object's destructor.
Make signal handling easier by implementing a base Object class that
tracks all connected signals and disconnects from them automatically
when the object is deleted, using template specialization resolution in
the Signal class.
As inheriting from the Object class may to a too harsh requirement for
Signal usage in applications, keep the existing behaviour working if the
slot doesn't inherit from the Object class. We may reconsider this later
and require all slot objects to inherit from the Object class.
