The struct v4l2_buffer documentation [1] clearly states
that setting of the sequence is done by the driver. libcamera does
not really need to set this field while queuing the buffer(s).

I always thought sequence numbers should be propogated like the
timestamp, but if the kernel doesn't do it - then no point setting it
indeed.
