Add functions for loading the IPAInterface factory function from an IPA
module shared object, and for creating an instance of an IPAInterface.
These functions will be used by IPAManager, from which a PipelineHandler
will request an IPAInterface.
Also update meson to add the "-ldl" linker argument, to allow loading of
the factory function from a shared object.

The IPA module API version determines the layout of struct
IPAModuleInfo. If this version number does not match, then it means that
the IPA module information structure can't be interpreted, and the
module can't be used. Validate this version number upon loading the
IPA module info from the IPA shared object.

We need a way to match pipelines with IPA modules, so add fields in
IPAModuleInfo to hold the IPA module API version number, the pipeline
name, and the pipeline version.
The module API version is used to determine the layout of struct
IPAModuleInfo.
Also update IPA module tests and Doxygen accordingly. Doxygen needs to
be updated to accomodate __attribute__((packed)).

Implement a class to wrap around an IPA module shared object.
For now, just load a struct IPAModuleInfo with symbol name
ipaModuleInfo from an IPA module .so shared object.
Also provide a public header file including the struct IPAModuleInfo,
structured such that both C and C++ IPA modules are supported.
