The CameraSensorHelper specifies two gain models, linear and
exponential. They are modelled after the MIPI CCS specification. Only
the linear model has been implemented, the exponential model was left
for later.
We now need to support sensors that configure their gain in a hardware
register with a value expressed in dB. This has similarities with the
MIPI CCS exponential gain model, but is only has an exponential factor,
while CCS also allows sensors to support a configurable linear factor.
The full CCS exponential model needs two values (for the linear and
exponential factors) to express a gain, while IPAs use a single linear
gain value internally. However, the exponential gain model example in
the CCS specification has a fixed linear factor, which may indicate that
it could be common for sensors that implement the exponential gain model
to only use the exponential factor. For this reason, implement the
exponential gain model with a fixed linear factor, but with a
sensor-specific coefficient for the exponential factor that allows
expressing the gain in dB (or other logarithmical units) instead of
limiting it to powers of 2 as in the MIPI CCS specification.

To prepare for other gain models than the linear model, store the gain
constants in a union with per-model members. Due to the lack of
designated initializer support in gcc with C++17, initializing a single
complex structure that includes a union will be difficult. Split the
gain model type to a separate variable to work around this issue.

Remove the verbose #ifndef/#define/#endif pattern for maintaining
header idempotency, and replace it with a simple #pragma once.
This simplifies the headers, and prevents redundant changes when
header files get moved.

A few lines needed to be wrapped under 80 lines.
Remove some unneeded documentation and minor typos.

For various sensor operations, it may be needed to do sensor specific
computations, like analogue gain or vertical blanking.
This commit introduces a new camera sensor helper in libipa which aims
to solve this specific issue.
It is based on the MIPI alliance Specification for Camera Command Set
and implements, for now, only the analogue "Global gain" mode.
Setting analogue gain for a specific sensor is not a straightforward
operation, as one needs to know how the gain is calculated for it.
Three helpers are created in this patch: imx219, ov5670 and ov5693.
Adding a new sensor is pretty straightforward as one only needs to
implement the sub-class for it and register that class to the
CameraSensorHelperFactory.
