The Python bindings will now accept, or return, a list or tuple of
libcamera.Rectangle objects for such controls.
This had previously been omitted, but now we have, for example, the
AfWindows control which requires this feature.

The JPEG color space is badly name, as the JPEG specification (ITU-T
T.81) doesn't define any particular color space:
The interchange format does not specify a complete coded image
representation. Application-dependent information, e.g. colour
space, is outside the scope of this Specification.
The JFIF specification (ITU-T T.871) is clearer as it requires ITU-R
BT.601 YCbCr encoding and a full quantization range:
The interpretations of Y, CB, and CR are derived from the E'Y, E'Cb,
and E'Cr signals defined in the 625-line specification of Rec. ITU-R
BT.601, but these signals are normalized so as to permit the usage of
the full range of 256 levels of the 8-bit binary encoding of the Y
component.
It however doesn't specify color primaries or a transfer function
explicitly. It only mentions the latter when describing the conversion
from YCbCr to RGB:
The inverse relationship for computing full scale 8-bit per colour
channel gamma pre-corrected RGB values (following Rec. ITU-R BT.601
gamma pre-correction and colour primary specifications) from YCbCr
colours (with 256 levels per component) can be computed as follows:
[...]
Given that ITU-R BT.601-5 (1995) didn't specify color primaries or a
transfer function, and that the later ITU-R BT.601-7 (2011) version
specifies color primaries for the 625-line variant that do not match
sRGB, the JPEG color space in libcamera is badly named. This is
confirmed by ITU-T T.871:
As this Recommendation | International Standard is based on the prior
informally-circulated JFIF version 1.02 specification that was
produced in 1992, which referenced Rec. ITU-R BT.601 (formerly CCIR
601), it references that specification for definition of the E'Y,
E'Cb, and E'Cr signals that correspond to the YCBCR values specified
herein. However, since the development of the prior JFIF version 1.02
specification, additional industry specifications have been developed,
Rec. ITU-R BT.601 has been updated, and common industry practice has
emerged which often follows the sYCC specification in IEC
61966-2-1/Amd.1. The difference between the use of the colour
interpretation specification in this Recommendation | International
Standard and that of the sYCC specification may be considered
negligible in practice.
Rename the color space to sYCC, as its definition matches the sYCC
standard, and indicate that it is typically used to encode JPEG images.

Blocking wait can be easily implemented on top in Python, so rather than
supporting only blocking reads, or supporting both non-blocking and

Wrap the CameraManager with a PyCameraManager class and move the related
code inside the new class.
This helps understanding the life times of the used-to-be global
variables, gets rid of static handleRequestCompleted function, and
allows us to simplify the binding code as the more complex pieces are
inside the class.
There should be no user visible functional changes.

-C flag is supposed to affect only the camera that was previously
defined in the arguments. That's not the case, and, e.g.:
cam.py -c2 -C -c3
causes camera 3 to start capturing, but it stops after the initial
Requests have been completed.
Fix the issue by filtering out camera contexts that do not have -C
defined.

We always call CameraManager.read_event() and
CameraManager.get_ready_requests(), so to simplify the use merge the
read_event() into the get_ready_requests().
This has the side effect that get_ready_requests() will now block if
there is no event ready. If we ever need to call get_ready_requests() in
a polling manner we will need a new function which behaves differently.
However, afaics the only sensible way to manage the event loop is to use
select/poll on the eventfd and then call get_ready_requests() once,
which is the use case what the current merged function supports.

Implement non-contextmanager use to MappedFrameBuffer so that we can
either:
with MappedFrameBuffer(fb) as mfb:
...
or
mfb = MappedFrameBuffer(fb)
mfb.mmap()
...
mfb.munmap()
While at it, improve the error handling a bit.
Note that the mmap() returns self. In other words, one can do this:
mfb = MappedFrameBuffer(fb).mmap()
...
mfb.munmap()

We can use Qt directly to accomplish the same as we do with PIL.
A minor downside is that loading MJPEG frame with Qt produces a "Corrupt
JPEG data" warning. The resulting picture looks fine, though. So add a
message handler to ignore that warning.

We create symlinks from the Python bindings build dir to the source dir
so that 1) the build dir can be used to use the bindings, and 2) to
allow modifications of the source .py files to be used right away
without rebuilding.
The symlinks were recently fixed and changed to use absolute paths.
However, absolute paths ruin one main use case I have: using the
bindings from the build dir via nfs from an ARM device.
So move back to relative paths, but accomplish this with the --relative
parameter for ln, instead of guessing the right relative path as was
done before the above-mentioned fix.

This adds the controls somewhat similarly to the C++ side. We will have
