Until now, the algorithm makes complex assumptions when dividing the
exposure and analogue gain values. Instead, use a simpler clamping of
the shutter speed first, and then of the analogue gain, based on the
limits configured.

We are filtering the exposure value to limit the gain to apply, but we
are not using the result.
Fix it.

The gains are currently set as a uint32_t while the analogue gain is
passed as a double. We also have a default maximum analogue gain of 15
which is quite high for a number of sensors.
Use a maximum value of 8 which should really be configured by the IPA
and not fixed as it is now. While at it make it a double.

We are using arbitrary constants for the exposure limit in a number of
lines.
Instead of using static constants for those, use the limits of the
sensor passed in IPASessionConfiguration and cache those.

The exposure value is filtered in filterExposure() using the
currentExposure_ and setting a prevExposure_ variable. This is misnamed
as it is not the previous exposure, but a filtered value.
Rename it accordingly.

The AGC frame context needs to be initialised correctly for the first
iteration. Until now, the IPA uses the minimum exposure and gain values
and caches those in local variables.
In order to give the sensor limits to AGC, create a new structure in
IPASessionConfiguration. Store the exposure in time (and not line
duration) and the analogue gain after CameraSensorHelper conversion.
Set the gain and exposure appropriately to the current values known to
the IPA and remove the setting of exposure and gain in IPAIPU3 as those
are now fully controlled by IPU3Agc.

"using" directives are harmful in headers, as they propagate the
namespace short-circuit to all files that include the header, directly
or indirectly. Drop the directive from agc.h, and use utils::Duration
explicitly. While at it, shorten the namespace qualifier from
libcamera::utils:: to utils:: in agc.cpp for Duration.

The intel-ipu3.h public interface from the kernel does not define how to
parse the statistics for a cell. This had to be identified by a process
of reverse engineering, and later identifying the structures from [0]
leading to our custom definition of struct Ipu3AwbCell.

To improve the kernel interface, a proposal has been made to the
linux-kernel [1] to incorporate the memory layout for each cell into the
intel-ipu3 header directly.

Update our local copy of the intel-ipu3.h to match the proposal and
change the AGC and AWB algorithms to reference that structure directly,
allowing us to remove the deprecated custom Ipu3AwbCell definition.

Now that the interface is properly used by the AGC class, move it into

As we need to exchange the exposure_ and gain_ by passing them through the
FrameContext, use the calculated values in setControls() function to
ease the reading.
