[libcamera-devel] [RFC PATCH v3 03/16] android: Add helpers for setting android metadata from libcamera controls

Add helpers for setting android metadata from libcamera controls.

There are two versions, for scalars and collections, both of which take
a default value to fill in the android control if the libcamera control
is not found. A version for scalars exists for no default, to not set
the android control at all if it is not found in libcamera. The
functions take two template parameters, the first for the android type,
and the second for the libcamera type of the control. They can be
different, for example, if the former is an enum and the latter is a
boolean, or if the former is an enum (uint8_t) and the latter is an enum
(int32_t).

The versions that take a default value return the value that was set in
the android metadata.

Changes in v3:
- setMetadata for collection only works with vectors
- change enum to enum class
- add two template parameters for android type and libcamera type
- add docs

New in v2

TODO: make ControlList versions so that we can use them in result
metadata
