Add a optional helper DelayedControls\nto help pipelines deal with such controls.\n\nThe idea is to provide a queue of controls towards the V4L2 device and\napply individual controls with the specified delay with the aim to get\npredictable and retrievable control values for any given frame. To do\nthis the queue of controls needs to be at least as deep as the control\nwith the largest delay.\n\nThe DelayedControls needs to be informed of every start of exposure.\nThis can be emulated but the helper is designed to be used with this\nevent being provide by the kernel thru V4L2 events.\n\nThis helper is based on StaggeredCtrl from the Raspberry Pi pipeline\nhandler but expands on its API. This helpers aims to replace the\nRaspberry Pi implementations and mimics it behavior perfectly.\n\nSigned-off-by: Niklas Söderlund <niklas.soderlund@ragnatech.se>\n---\n* Changes since v1\n- Correct copyright to reflect work is derived from Raspberry Pi\n pipeline handler.
