Remove everything related to the C API, including ipa_context,
ipa_context_wrapper, and IPAInterfaceWrapper. Also remove relevant
documentation.
ipaCreate() provided by IPA implementations, and createInterface()
provided by IPAModule (wrapper around IPA implementation) both now
return a C++ object IPAInterface instead of struct ipa_context.
Although IPAInterfaceWrapper is the only component of libipa, the
skeleton and build files for libipa are retained.
After converting the C API to the C++-only API, make all pipeline
handlers and IPAs use the new API.

libcamera: IPAProxy, IPAManager: Switch to one-proxy-per-pipeline scheme
IPAProxy is changed in two major ways:
- Every pipeline has its own proxy, to support each pipeline's IPA
interface
- IPAProxy implementations always encapsulate IPA modules, and switch
internally for isolation or threaded
The IPAProxy registration mechanism is removed, as each pipeline will
have its own proxy, so the pipeline can pass the specialized class name
of the IPAProxy to the IPAManager for construction.
IPAManager is changed accordingly to support these changes:
- createIPA is a template function that takes an IPAProxy class, and
always returns an IPAProxy
- IPAManager no longer decides on isolation, and simply creates an
IPAProxy instance while passing the isolation flag
Consequently, the old IPAProxy classes (IPAProxyThread and
IPAProxyLinux) are removed. The IPAInterfaceTest is updated to use
the new IPAManager interface, and to construct a ProcessManager as no
single global instance is created anymore.

libcamera: IPAProxy: Remove registration mechanism
Implementations of IPA proxies use a registration mechanism to register
themselves with the main IPA proxy factory. This registration declares
static objects, causing a risk of things being constructed before the
proper libcamera facilities are ready. Since each pipeline handler has
its own IPA proxy and knows the type, it isn't necessary to have a proxy
factory. Remove it to alleviate the risk of early construction.

The libcamera internal headers are located in src/libcamera/include/.
The directory is added to the compiler headers search path with a meson
include_directories() directive, and internal headers are included with
(e.g. for the internal semaphore.h header)
#include "semaphore.h"
All was well, until libcxx decided to implement the C++20
synchronization library. The __threading_support header gained a
#include <semaphore.h>
to include the pthread's semaphore support. As include_directories()
adds src/libcamera/include/ to the compiler search path with -I, the
internal semaphore.h is included instead of the pthread version.
Needless to say, the compiler isn't happy.
Three options have been considered to fix this issue:
- Use -iquote instead of -I. The -iquote option instructs gcc to only
consider the header search path for headers included with the ""
version. Meson unfortunately doesn't support this option.
- Rename the internal semaphore.h header. This was deemed to be the
beginning of a long whack-a-mole game, where namespace clashes with
system libraries would appear over time (possibly dependent on
particular system configurations) and would need to be constantly
fixed.
- Move the internal headers to another directory to create a unique
namespace through path components. This causes lots of churn in all
the existing source files through the all project.
The first option would be best, but isn't available to us due to missing
support in meson. Even if -iquote support was added, we would need to
fix the problem before a new version of meson containing the required
support would be released.
The third option is thus the only practical solution available. Bite the
bullet, and do it, moving headers to include/libcamera/internal/.

IPA modules may require configuration files, which may be stored in
different locations in the file system. To standardize file locations
between all IPAs and pipeline handlers, provide a helper function to
locate a configuration file by searching in the following directories:
- All directories specified in the LIBCAMERA_IPA_CONFIG_PATH environment
variable ; or
- In the source tree if libcamera is not installed ; otherwise
- In standard system locations (etc and share directories).
When stored in the source tree, configuration files shall be located in
a 'data' subdirectory of their respective IPA directory.
More locations, or extensions to the mechanism, may be implemented
later.

The two callers of functions libcameraPath() and isLibcameraInstalled()
end up using the same process and finally use the path with
libcamera.so. Hence write a function libcameraBuildPath() which
combines their functions and returns the root of the build sources
when the library has not been installed, but is running from the build
tree, thereby making call sites simpler.
When the library is installed, libcameraBuildPath() will return an empty
string.
Make changes in the call sites accordingly.

Hence, when libcamera is not installed, but is running from a build

from that point add relative path to the proxy workers directory.
