Add an IPA which controls the exposure time and analog gain for a sensor
connected to the rkisp1 pipeline. The IPA supports turning AE on and off
and informing the camera of the status of the AE control loop.

The IPA interface needs to support interactions with the pipeline; add
interfaces to control the sensor and handling of request ISP parameters
and statistics.

Add support to the dummy VIMC IPA for tracing operation by using a FIFO
channel that will be used by the IPA Interface test to verify
communications with the IPA.
At the moment only add support for the init() operation as it's the only
defined one.

Open source IPA implementations can benefit from usage of libcamera
internal APIs. Allow this by compiling against the internal headers and
linking against libcamera.

The ipa_dummy.cpp and ipa_dummy_isolate.cpp only differ in the license
reported in the IPAModuleInfo structure. Drop the second file and
generate the two .so from ipa_dummy.cpp, with the license defined
through the command line.

The ipa includes are located in include/libcamera/ipa/. This gives an
incorrect impression that they are a sub-part of the rest of the
libcamera API, while they are the API towards the IPA the same way that
include/libcamera/ contains the API towards applications. To clarify
this, move them to include/ipa/.
The IPA headers are however still part of libcamera, so installing them
to ${prefix}/include/ipa/ would make little sense. To fix this, move the
application facing API to ${prefix}/include/libcamera/libcamera/ when
installed, and the IPA to ${prefix}/include/libcamera/ipa/. When major
versions of libcamera will be released, they could then be installed
side by side in ${prefix}/include/libcamera-${version}/.

Add the dummy IPA that needs isolation to meson. At the same time, clean
up the IPA meson to facilitate adding more IPAs.

Add a field to IPAModuleInfo to contain the license of the module.
This license field will be used to determine whether the IPA module
should be run in an isolated process or not. If the license is open
source, then the IPA module will be allowed to run without process
isolation, if the user enables it. If the license is not open source,
then the IPA module will be run with process isolation.
Update the dummy IPA and IPA test to conform to the new struct layout.

IPAManager is a class that will search in given directories for IPA
modules, and will load them into a list. It also provides an interface
for pipeline handlers to acquire an IPA.
A meson build file for the IPAs is added, which also specifies a
hard-coded path for where to load the IPAs from in the installation
directory. More paths can be specified with the environment variable
LIBCAMERA_IPA_MODULE_PATH, with the same syntax as the regular PATH
environment variable. Make the test framework set this environment
variable.
