Add support for Raspberry Pi Camera 3 modules (Sony IMX708 camera sensor) to the Raspberry Pi IPA. These modules are available in either normal or wide angle lens, both with IR or no IR cut options, giving a total for 4 variants. Provide IQ tuning files for all four variants. The IMX708 camera helper additionally parses PDAF and HDR histogram data that is provided in the embedded data stream from Unicam.

libcamera for the Raspberry Pi
Raspberry Pi provides a fully featured pipeline handler and control algorithms (IPAs, or "Image Processing Algorithms") to work with libcamera. Support is included for all existing Raspberry Pi camera modules.
libcamera for the Raspberry Pi allows users to:
- Use their existing Raspberry Pi cameras.
- Change the tuning of the image processing for their Raspberry Pi cameras.
- Alter or amend the control algorithms (such as AGC/AEC, AWB or any others) that control the sensor and ISP.
- Implement their own custom control algorithms.
- Supply new tunings and/or algorithms for completely new sensors.
How to install and run libcamera on the Raspberry Pi
