Provide a new Camera property that allows pipeline handlers to list any
kernel device used to operate the camera. This allows other frameworks
and daemons such as PipeWire to better understand the resources consumed
by a Camera and consider ignoring those resources when enumerating
camera devices on a system.

Array controls specify the array size through the YAML 'size' element,
which stores a list of values, one per dimension. Variable-size arrays
currently use an empty 'size' list, which prevents describing the number
of dimensions of the array.
Improve this by using the same notation for fixed-size and variable-size
array controls. Dimensions that are not fixed are described as a string
instead of an integer, such as [n], [n,3] or [w,h]. The strings have
currently no special meaning, this may change in the future.

Define Span types explicitly as either variable- or fixed-sized. This
introduces a new convention for defining Span dimensions in the property
and control value definitions and generates Span types as variable-sized
Span<T> or as fixed-sized Span<T,N>.

The python3-yaml package (containing the PyYAML Python package) shipped
by Debian stable is documented as a YAML 1.1 parser:
Python3-yaml is a complete YAML 1.1 parser and emitter for Python3.
PyYAML doesn't implement YAML 1.2 support, but ignores the minor number
of the YAML directive, and thus doesn't choke on the libcamera internal
files used to generate format- and control-related source code that
explicitly state conformance with YAML 1.2. Still, given that we don't
use any feature of YAML 1.2, and that the tuning data files now use YAML
1.1, switch the internal YAML files to version 1.1 as well for
consistency.
The main drawback of YAML 1.1 is that the unquoted literal strings Yes,
No, On and Off will be parsed as booleans. We need to be careful to
avoid those values in YAML files, until libcamera can switch to YAML 1.2
once more recent versions of libyaml get shipped by the distributions we
want to support. This is however not an issue introduced by this change,
as the existing YAML 1.2 files were parsed with the YAML 1.1 string
literal parsing rules anyway.

The SensorSensitivity property is a scaling factor that describes how sensitive
the selected sensor mode is compared to other readout modes of the same sensor.
For example, a binned mode might have twice the sensitivity of the full
resolution mode, meaning you would get double the signal level for the same
exposure and gains.

This commit adds support for monochrome (greyscale) raw sensors. These
are sensors that have no colour filter array, so all pixels are the
same and there are no distinct colour channels.
These sensors still require many of an ISP's processing stages, such
as denoise, tone mapping, but not those that involve colours (such as
demosaic, or colour matrices).

The SensorCropMaximum camera property reports the location of that
part of the image sensor array that can be scaled to produce the
output images, given in native sensor pixels. It will normally change
when a new camera mode is selected, and can be used to implement
digital zoom.

The model name must to the extent possible describe the sensor. For most
devices this is the model name of the sensor. While for some devices the
sensor model is unavailable as the sensor or the entire camera is part
of a larger unit and exposed as a black-box to the system. In such cases
the model name of the smallest component closest to the sensor must be
used.

Re-use the Control generation infrastructure to generate libcamera properties
and define the first 'Location' property.
Introduce three additional files:
- include/libcamera/property_ids.h
Defines the properties ids
- src/libcamera/property_ids.cpp
Defines the properties Control<> instances
- src/libcamera/property_ids.yaml
Provide the first 'Location' property definition.
