When the libcamera project was started, we had no public git tree hosted
on git.libcamera.org. The problem has been addressed a while ago, and
the git.linuxtv.org libcamera repository is now a mirror of the main git
tree. The mirror is useful to benefit from the linuxtv.org automated
compile tests, but it can also confuse users who don't know where the
official version is. To try and clarify this, use the git.libcamera.org
URL consistently through the project.
This doesn't void the validatity of the linuxtv.org repository which
will continue to mirror the libcamera.org repository.

The V4L2VideoDevice::toV4L2PixelFormat() function is incorrectly
implemented, as it will pick a multi-planar format if the device
supports the multi-planar API, even if only single-planar formats are
supported. This currently works because the implementation calls
V4L2PixelFormat::fromPixelFormat(), which ignores the multiplanar
argument and always returns a single-planar format.
Fixing this isn't trivial. As we don't need to support multi-planar V4L2
formats at this point, drop the function instead of pretending
everything is fine, and call V4L2PixelFormat::fromPixelFormat() directly
from pipeline handlers. As the single-planar case is the most common,
set the multiplanar argument to false by default to avoid long lines.
