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.

The association of buffers to a request can be done directly in
addBuffer() instead of when the request is queued to the camera. Keep
the check that a request contains buffers by moving it to
Camera::queueRequest() where prepare() was previously called.
As a bonus we can remove a friend statement in Request.

A new ControlList container is needed to hold metadata coming out of
the IPA. The list of supported controls in this list is expected to
grow, so for now do not add a validator for the list.

When stopping the stream buffers have been queued, in which case their
completion is never be notified to the user. This can lead to memory
leaks. Fix it by notifying completion of all queued buffers with the
status set to error.
As a result the base PipelineHandler implementation can be simplified,
as all requests complete as the result of stopping the stream. The
stop() method that manually completes all queued requests isn't needed
anymore.

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.

Applications often have to map requests queued to a camera to external
resources. To make this easy, add a 64-bit integer cookie to the Request
class that is set when the request is created and can be retrieved at
any time, especially in the request completion handler. The cookie is
completely transparent for libcamera and is never modified.

With the introduction of multiple stream support, pipeline handler

Request complete by themselves when all the buffers they contain have
completed, connecting the buffer's completed signal to be notified of
buffer completion. While this works for now, it prevents pipelines from
delaying request completion until all metadata is available, and makes
it impossible to ensure that requests complete in the order they are
queued.
To fix this, make request completion handling explicit in pipeline
handlers. The base PipelineHandler class is extended with
implementations of the queueRequest() and stop() methods and gets new
completeBuffer() and completeRequest() methods to help pipeline handlers
tracking requests and buffers.
The three existing pipeline handlers connect the bufferReady signal of
their capture video node to a slot of their respective camera data
instance, where they use the PipelineHandler helpers to notify buffer
and request completion. Request completion is handled synchronously with
buffer completion as the pipeline handlers don't need to support more
advanced use cases, but this paves the road for future work.
