From: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@ideasonboard.com>

The IPU3 IPA core is growing with additional documentation. The
ipa_context documentation is stored here, but it pushes the IPU3
documentation and implementation further from the head of the file.

Furthermore, the ipa_context documentation is outside of the ipa::ipu3
namespace and isn't identified correctly by Doxygen.

Move the ipa_context to its own compilation object even though there
isn't any code, but to maintain consistency with our documentation
model.

Correctly re-introduce the documentation into the libcamera::ipa::ipu3
namespace during the move.
