Use the CameraSensor ID as the camera name in pipelines that uses a
CameraSensors, this is done in preparation of turning the camera name
into an ID. The CameraSensor ID meets the requirements that will be put
on camera ID.
Before this change example of camera names:
* OF based systems
ov5695 7-0036
ov2685 7-003c
* ACPI based systems
ov13858 8-0010
ov5670 10-0036
* VIMC
VIMC Sensor B
After this change the same cameras are:
* OF based systems
/base/i2c@ff160000/camera@36
/base/i2c@ff160000/camera@36
* ACPI based systems
\_SB_.PCI0.I2C2.CAM0
\_SB_.PCI0.I2C4.CAM1
* VIMC
platform/vimc.0 Sensor B

The Camera class currently requires the allocator to have no allocated
buffer before the camera is reconfigured, and the allocator to be
destroyed before the camera is released. There's no basis for these
restrictions anymore, remove them.

With the FrameBuffer rework completed there is no reason to keep the

Switch to the FrameBuffer interface where all buffers are treated as
external buffers and are allocated outside the camera. Applications
allocating buffers using libcamera are switched to use the
FrameBufferAllocator helper.
Follow-up changes to this one will finalize the transition to the new
FrameBuffer interface by removing code that is left unused after this
change.

In the FrameBuffer interface the stream will not be available from the
buffer object as the buffer might be allocated externally. The
application needs to explicitly state which stream the buffer is being
added for to the request.
Extend the addBuffer() function to get this information explicitly from
the caller.

Many tests other than the camera/ tests use a camera. To increase code
sharing, move the base CameraTest class to the test library. The class
becomes a helper that doesn't inherit from Test anymore (to avoid
diamond inheritance issues when more such helpers will exist).

The Buffer class is a large beast the stores information about the
buffer memory, dynamic metadata related to the frame stored in the
buffer, and buffer reference data (in the index). In order to implement
buffer import we will need to extend this with dmabuf file descriptors,
making usage of the class even more complex.
Refactor the Buffer class by splitting the buffer memory information to
a BufferMemory class, and repurposing the Buffer class to reference a
buffer and to store dynamic metadata. The BufferMemory class becomes a
long term storage, valid and stable from the time buffer memory is
allocated to the time it is freed. The Buffer class, on the other hand,
becomes transient, is created on demand when an application requires a
buffer, is given to a request, and is deleted when the request
completes.
Buffer and BufferMemory don't need to be copied, so their copy
constructor and assignment operators are deleted.

Three tests {capture,configuration_set,statemachine} override the
CameraTest::init() function, and call it as the first action.
However they were not checking the return value, and each of the tests
will segfault if the VIMC camera is not obtained.
Check the return value of the CameraTest base class initialisation and
return any errors to the test suite if initialisation fails.

To prepare for specialising the CameraConfiguration class in pipeline
handlers, return a pointer to a camera configuration instead of a
reference from Camera::generateConfiguration(). The camera configuration
always needs to be allocated from the pipeline handler, and its
ownership is passed to the application.
For symmetry, change Camera::configure() to take a CameraConfiguration
pointer instead of a reference. This aligns with our coding practice of
passing parameters that are modified by the callee by pointer.

Rename the configureStreams() and streamConfiguration() methods to

thus not limited to streams, even if a CameraConfiguration currently
contains streams only.
While at it, remove the qcam MainWindow::configureStreams() method that
is declared but never defined or used.

Instead of requesting the default configuration for a set of streams
where the application has to figure out which streams provided by the
camera is best suited for its intended usage, have the library figure
this out by using stream usages.
The application asks the library for a list of streams and a suggested
default configuration for them by supplying a list of stream usages.
Once the list is retrieved the application can fine-tune the returned
configuration and then try to apply it to the camera.
Currently no pipeline handler is prepared to handle stream usages but
nor did it make use of the list of Stream IDs which was the previous
interface. The main reason for this is that all cameras currently only
provide one stream each. This will still be the case but the API will be
prepared to expand both pipeline handlers and applications to support
streams usages.
