bae9d2bdb3 libcamera: base: Add Backtrace class
Create a new class to abstract generation and access to call stack
backtraces. The current implementation depends on the glibc backtrace()
implementation and is copied from the logger. Future development will
bring support for libunwind, transparently for the users of the class.

The logger backtrace implementation is dropped, replaced by usage of the
new Backtrace class.

e00149fccb meson: Set a SONAME version in the libcamera libraries
The libcamera and libcamera-base libraries are currently unversioned, but
donwstream users expect these to have a proper SONAME version in order to
package them.

A stable release has not yet happened because the project is still under
development and the API/ABI might change. But having a versioned SONAME
would allow distributions to package libcamera, without the need to add
any downstream patch to set the version.

Since the "0.0.0" version is already used in different places, let's also
use that as the library version. The meson build system will use the first
part of the version ("0") as the SONAME version, which is aligned with the
convention used by other projects:

$ ls /lib64/libcamera*so* -1
/lib64/libcamera-base.so
/lib64/libcamera-base.so.0
/lib64/libcamera-base.so.0.0.0
/lib64/libcamera.so
/lib64/libcamera.so.0
/lib64/libcamera.so.0.0.0

$ objdump -p /lib64/libcamera.so.0.0.0 | grep SONAME
  SONAME               libcamera.so.0

3335d5a504 libcamera: Drop emitter object pointer from signal arguments
Many signals used in internal and public APIs carry the emitter pointer
as a signal argument. This was done to allow slots connected to multiple
signal instances to differentiate between emitters. While starting from
a good intention of facilitating the implementation of slots, it turned
out to be a bad API design as the signal isn't meant to know what it
will be connected to, and thus shouldn't carry parameters that are
solely meant to support a use case specific to the connected slot.

These pointers turn out to be unused in all slots but one. In the only
case where it is needed, it can be obtained by wrapping the slot in a
lambda function when connecting the signal. Do so, and drop the emitter
pointer from all signals.

58720e1dc9 libcamera: base: signal: Support connecting signals to functors
It can be useful to connect a signal to a functor, and in particular a
lambda function, while still operating in the context of a receiver
object (to support both object-based disconnection and queued
connections to Object instances).

Add a BoundMethodFunctor class to bind a functor, and a corresponding
Signal::connect() function. There is no corresponding disconnect()
function, as a lambda passed to connect() can't be later passed to
disconnect(). Disconnection typically uses disconnect(T *object), which
will cover the vast majority of use cases.

c0ca2cbdc2 libcamera: base: log: Don't crash when logging after Logger destruction
libcamera isn't supposed to log messages after the logger is destroyed,
as the global logger instance is destroyed after the main() function
returns, and the camera manager is supposed to have been stopped and
destroyed before that.

This rule is difficult to enforce in the V4L2 compat implementation, as
there is no location where we can destroy the camera manager manually
before the logger is destroyed. This results in a use-after-free
condition when the camera manager gets stopped during destruction.

Fix it by not trying to print log messages when the global logger
instance has been destroyed.

This is a bit of a hack, but hopefully not too bad. There could be race
conditions when using a CameraManager instance that is destroyed as part
of the destruction of global variables (like the V4L2 compat layer does,
it wraps CameraManager in a singleton V4L2CompatManager class, and
destroys it when V4L2CompatManager is destroyed) as the CameraManager
thread will still be running when the logger gets destroyed, but this
doesn't cause any regression as we destroy the logger without any
safeguard measure today anyway.

There are other options that could be considered. Forcing destruction of
the logger after the camera manager in the V4L2 compat layer is one of
them, but turned out to be difficult. For instance care would need to be
taken *not* to log any message in the mmap() wrapper if the fd doesn't
match a wrapped camera, as mmap() is called very early in the
initialization process, before libcamera and the logger get initialized.
The resulting implementation would likely be fairly complex.

Another option could be to wrap the logger with a shared pointer, and
keep a reference to it in CameraManager. That's more intrusive, and it's
not clear if it would be worth it.

33dd4fab9d libcamera: base: class: Don't pass Extensible pointer to Private constructor
The Extensible and Extensible::Private classes contain pointers to each
other. These pointers are initialized in the respective class's
constructor, by passing a pointer to the other class to each
constructor. This particular construct reduces the flexibility of the
Extensible pattern, as the Private class instance has to be allocated
and constructed in the members initializer list of the Extensible
class's constructor. It is thus impossible to perform any operation on
the Private class between its construction and the construction of the
Extensible class, or to subclass the Private class without subclassing
the Extensible class.

To make the design pattern more flexible, don't pass the pointer to the
Extensible class to the Private class's constructor, but initialize the
pointer manually in the Extensible class's constructor. This requires a
const_cast as the o_ member of the Private class is const.

da9b6bb196 base: thread: Fix recursive calls to dispatchMessages()
There are use cases for calling the dispatchMessages() function
recursively, from within a message handler. This can be used, for
instance, to force delivery of messages posted to a thread concurrently
to stopping the thread. This currently causes access, in the outer
dispatchMessages() call, to iterators that have been invalidated by
erasing list elements in the recursive call, leading to undefined
behaviour (most likely double-free or other crashes).

Fix it by only erasing messages from the list at the end of the outer
call, identified using a recursion counter.

86eaa6c5e1 libcamera/base: Introduce new base library
The libcamera-base.so will feature internal support functionality
that is utilised by libcamera, and can be shared in other places.

This new library provides a layer beneath libcamera which provides
common abstractions to internal objects.

A pkg-config file is generated and named libcamera-base.pc which allows
components such as external IPA modules to link directly to this library
if they need. Normal applications will reference this library through
the Requires: statement provided by the libcamera.pc package
configuration, and linkage will be handled automatically through the
pkg-config mechanisms.

No code is moved to this library yet, this patch only introduces the
framework, construction and linkage.
