Using request pads needs virtual functions to create new request pads and
release the allocated pads. Added way to generate unique stream_id in
gst_libcamera_src_task_enter(). It failed to execute when more than one
pad was added.

It defines the functions gst_libcamera_src_request_new_pad() and
gst_libcamera_src_release_pad() which handle, creating and releasing
request pads. It also assigned these functions to their callback
handlers in GstLibcameraSrcClass.

gst_pad_create_stream_id() failed since, this element has more than 2
source pads, and we were passing nullptr to it's stream_id argument. It
fails to auto generate a stream id.

Used a gint which increments everytime new stream_id is requested and
group_id to generate an unique stream_id by appending them togther as
%i%i.

This doesn't enable request pad support in gstreamer element. This is
one of the series of changes needed to make it work.
