When software ISP is enabled, we want to be able to provide a raw stream in addition to the processed stream. For this purpose, we need two streams. If only the processed stream is requested, it doesn't harm to allocate two. This is a hack for the lack of a better easy option. The number of streams is determined as a camera property in the pipeline matching. The actual number of streams needed (one or two) is determined only when examining roles in SimplePipelineHandler::generateConfiguration. In theory, software ISP could produce multiple processed streams but this is out of scope of this patch series. Hence two streams are sufficient at the moment. When software ISP is not enabled, the camera won't be able to produce multiple streams (assuming there's no hardware converter) and only single stream should be allocated as before. The simple pipeline handler assumes there's a linear pipeline from the camera sensor to a video capture device, and only supports a single stream. Branches in the hardware pipeline that would allow capturing multiple streams from the same camera sensor are not supported. We have no plan to change that, as a device that can produce multiple streams will likely be better supported by a dedicated pipeline handler.
