If a UVC camera provides H264 we should expose that to the application.

But libcamera does not do encoding itself, and as yet does not have any
support for encoded formats other than MJPEG.

The application or framework is responsible for connecting the output of
libcamera to a suitable encoder to match your use case requirements. If
you are using gstreamer, this could be via v4l2h264enc, or any of the
software encoders for instance.
