Daniel Scally f4c3dee217 libcamera: V4L2Subdevice: Get device by regexp
Some kernel drivers give their entities names that will differ from
implementation to implementation; for example the drivers for the
Camera Receiver Unit and CSI-2 receiver in the RZ/V2H(P) SoC give their
entities names that include their memory address, in the format
"csi-16000400.csi2". Passing that entity name to
V4L2Subdevice::fromEntityName() is too inflexible given it would only
then work if that specific CSI-2 receiver were the one being used.

Add an overload for V4L2Subdevice::fromEntityName() to instead allow
users to pass a std::basic_regex, and use std::regex_search() instead
of a direct string comparison to find a matching entity. Ths allows
us to form regular expressions like "csi-[0-9a-f]{8}.csi2" to find
the entities.
