The Android camera framework provides for each buffer part of a capture
request an acquisition fence the camera HAL is supposed to wait on
before using the buffer. As the libcamera HAL runs in the camera service
thread, it is not possible to perform a synchronous wait there.
Introduce a CameraWorker class that runs an internal thread to wait
on a set of fences before queueing a capture request to the
libcamera::Camera.
Fences completion is handled through a simple poll, similar in
implementation to the sync_wait() function provided by libdrm.

Allow disabling compilation of the Android HAL adaptation layer
automatically when a dependency is missing by turning the android option
into a feature. The default value is set to 'disabled' to match the
current behaviour.

In an attempt to clarify the license terms of all files in the libcamera
project, the build system files deserve particular attention. While they
describe how the binaries are created, they are not themselves
transformed into any part of binary distributions of the software, and
thus don't influence the copyright on the binary packages. They are
however subject to copyright, and thus influence the distribution terms
of the source packages.
Most of the meson.build files would not meet the threshold of
originality criteria required for copyright protection. Some of the more
complex meson.build files may be eligible for copyright protection. To
avoid any ambiguity and uncertainty, state our intent to not assert
copyrights on the build system files by putting them in the public
domain with the CC0-1.0 license.

Now that libcamera creates threads internally and doesn't rely on an
application-provided event loop, remove the thread from the Android
Camera HAL layer. The CameraProxy class becomes meaningless, remove it
and communicate directly from the CameraHalManager to the CameraDevice.

Add libcamera Android Camera HALv3 implementation.
The initial camera HAL implementation supports the LIMITED hardware
level and uses statically defined metadata and camera characteristics.
Add a build option named 'android' and adjust the build system to
selectively compile the Android camera HAL and link it against the
required Android libraries.

Import the Android camera metadata library from the ChromiumOS build
system.
The camera metadata library has been copied from
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform2
at revision 9e65ddd2c496e712f005ada9715decd2ff8e4a03
The original path in the Cros platform2/ repository is:
camera/android/libcamera_metadata/src
Create a new build target for the camera metadata library to
create a static library to link against libcamera.
