[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v2 1/3] libcamera: Add ColourCorrectionMatrix control

[David Plowman]

This control is principally for returning, in the image metadata, the
CCM (Colour Correction Matrix) used by the imaging pipeline. By which
we mean the 3x3 matrix that is applied to the camera RGB pixels after
subtraction of black levels and white-balancing, but before any gamma
transformation.

Some implementations may also choose to let an application set
explicit colour matrices, using this as a control.
