Naushir Patuck Nov. 29, 2022, 1:45 p.m. UTC 
Add a platform configuration file optimised for use with the Raspberry Pi
suite of libcamera-apps and the picamera2 framework.

This configuration minimises the number of internal buffers allocated, with
the expectation that applications will always provide buffers in request for
any configured stream.
