build: controls: Rework how controls and properties are generated

Add support for using separate YAML files for controls and properties
generation. The mapping of vendor/pipeline handler to control file is
done through the controls_map variable in include/libcamera/meson.build.

This simplifies management of vendor control definitions and avoids
possible merge conflicts when changing the control_ids.yaml file for
core and draft controls. With this change, libcamera and draft controls
and properties files are designated the 'libcamera' vendor tag.

In this change, we also rename control_ids.yaml -> control_ids_core.yaml
and property_ids.yaml -> property_ids_core.yaml to designate these as
core libcamera controls.
