This control reports the global digital gain applied by the pipeline
as a whole, after capturing a raw image from the sensor.

         This control is only present when the pipeline supports scaling. Its
         maximum valid value is given by the properties::ScalerCropMaximum
         property, and the two can be used to implement digital zoom.

+        Digital gain value applied during the processing steps applied
+        to the image as captured from the sensor.
+
+        The global digital gain factor is applied to all the colour channels
+        of the RAW image. Different pipeline models are free to
+        specify how the global gain factor applies to each separate
+        channel.
+
+        If an imaging pipeline applies digital gain in distinct
+        processing steps, this value indicates their total sum.
+        Pipelines are free to decide how to adjust each processing
+        step to respect the received gain factor and shall report
+        their total value in the request metadata.
