Add support to ControlId for querying direction information. This allows
applications to query whether a ControlId is meant for being set in
controls or to be returned in metadata or both. This also has a side
effect of properly encoding this information, as previously it was only
mentioned losely and inconsistently in the control id definition.

Add to ControlId information about the names and values of enum, in the
event that the ControlId is an enum type. This allows applications to
query the ControlId for the names of the enum values, so that they can
be displayed on a UI, for example. Without this, it was necessary to use
macros of NameOfControlNameValueMap, which is difficult to use and is
very inflexible.
There already exists a map from name -> value in generated code. Reuse
this and pass it to the ControlId constructor, which in turn generates
the reverse map. The reverse map is then exposed to applications.

Jinja2 templates help separate the logic related to the template from
the generation of the data. The python code becomes much clearer as a
result.
As an added bonus, we can use a single template file for both controls
and properties.

Label draft controls and properties through the "draft" vendor tag
and deprecate the existing "draft: true" mechanism. This uses the new
vendor tags mechanism to place draft controls in the same
libcamera::controls::draft namespace and provide a defined control id
range for these controls. This requires moving all draft controls from
control_ids.yaml to control_ids_draft.yaml.
One breaking change in this commit is that draft control ids also move
to the libcamera::controls::draft namespace from the existing
libcamera::controls namespace. This is desirable to avoid API breakages
when adding new libcamera controls. So, for example, the use of
controls::NOISE_REDUCTION_MODE will need to be replaced with
controls::draft::NOISE_REDUCTION_MODE.

Add support for vendor-specific controls and properties to libcamera.
The controls/properties are defined by a "vendor" tag in the YAML
control description file, for example:
vendor: rpi
controls:
- MyExampleControl:
type: string
description: |
Test for libcamera vendor-specific controls.
This will now generate a control id in the libcamera::controls::rpi
namespace, ensuring no id conflict between different vendors, core or
draft libcamera controls. Similarly, a ControlIdMap control is generated
in the libcamera::controls::rpi namespace.
A #define LIBCAMERA_HAS_RPI_VENDOR_CONTROLS is also generated to allow
applications to conditionally compile code if the specific vendor
controls are present. For the python bindings, the control is available
with libcamera.controls.rpi.MyExampleControl. The above controls
example applies similarly to properties.
Existing libcamera controls defined in control_ids.yaml are given the
"libcamera" vendor tag.
A new --mode flag is added to gen-controls.py to specify the mode of
operation, either 'controls' or 'properties' to allow the code generator
to correctly set the #define string.
As a drive-by, sort and redefine the output command line argument in
gen-controls.py and gen-py-controls.py to ('--output', '-o') for
consistency.

For each Control that supports enumerated values generate an array
of ControlValue which contains the full list of valid values.
At the expense of a slight increase in memory occupation this change
allows the construction of the ControlInfo associated with a Control
from the values list, defaulting the minimum and maximum values
reported by the ControlInfo.

Extend the control and property framework to support exposing draft
controls and properties in a scoped namespace.
The controls/properties themselves will retain the same ordering in the
relevant enum/id maps - but the access to any draft control will require
explicitly referencing through its' draft:: namespace prefix.

[Added missing hunk in control_ids.cpp.in and changed subject]

The controls namespace isn't documenting, making it impossible to
reference the variables it contains. Furthermore, within the
documentation page for the control_ids.h file, links from overview to
detailed variable documentation are broken for the same reason. Both
issues can be fixed by documenting the controls namespace.
Unfortunately doxygen then fails to parse the initialisers for the
controls global variables correctly and considers them as functions. To
work around this, modify the control_ids.cpp generation script to hide
the variables from doxygen, but still expose their documentation.

Bring back auto-generation of control ids. In this version, both the
header and the source files are generated from a single YAML file that
stores all control definitions. This allows centralising controls in a
single file, while the previous version required keeping both
declarations (in a header) and documentation (in a the source) in sync
manually.
Using YAML as a format to store control definitions is a trade-off
between ease of use (there are many YAML parsers available) and
simplicity (XML was considered, but would have lead to more complex
processing). A new build time dependency is added on python3-yaml, which
should be available as a package in all distributions and build
environments.
The YAML format is likely to change over time as we improve
documentation of controls, the first version simply copies the
information currently available. Future improvements should also include
a YAML schema to validate the YAML source file.
