[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v2 7/8] libcamera: utils: Implement C++14 make_unique<>()

[Laurent Pinchart]

C++14 introduces std::make_unique<>() that makes it easier to initialize
unique_ptr<> instances. As libcamera is limited to C++11, implement our
own version of the function in the libcamera::utils namespace.
