[libcamera-devel] [PATCH v2 5/6] pipeline: raspberrypi: Add a timeout to free buffers on stopDevice()

Start a 5 second timer when stopDevice() is called, and if it times out,
free all internally allocated buffers. The timer is cleared when start() is
subsequently called.
This avoids the pipeline handler from holding onto internal buffers for long
periods of time due to application inactivity.
