If an exposure time change adjusts the vblanking limits, and we write both VBLANK and EXPOSURE controls as a set, the latter may fail if the value is outside of the limits calculated by the old VBLANK value. This is a limitation in V4L2 and cannot be fixed by writing VBLANK before EXPOSURE. The workaround here is to have the DelayedControls object mark the VBLANK control as "priority write", which then write VBLANK separately from (and ahead of) any other controls. This way, the sensor driver will update the EXPOSURE control with new limits before the new values is presented, and will thus be seen as valid. To support this, a new struct DelayedControls::ControlParams is used in the constructor to provide the control delay value as well as the priority write flag.
