[libcamera-devel] [PATCH 5/8] libcamera: v4l2_videodevice: Expose the device capabilities

[Laurent Pinchart]

Add a caps() function that exposes the V4L2 capabilities for the device.
This is useful for generic code that can't hardcode any a priori
knowledge of the device, such as in a simple pipeline handler.
