[libcamera-devel] [PATCH 1/3] libcamera: utils: Add string splitter utility function

[Kieran Bingham]

From: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart at ideasonboard.com>

Add a utils::split() function that splits a string for the purpose of
iterating over substrings. It returns an object of unspecified type that
can be used in range-based for loops.
