A few questions on the design before getting to the actual
implementation

Is the HeapAllocator meant to be used by applications or is it only
for internal library components usage ? If it's only for internal
usage, should these headers be moved to include/libcamera/internal/ ?

If I'm not mistaken the DmaHeap and UdmaHeap classes are not meant to be used
directly, they always go through the HeapAllocator class. Do we need
three separate headers for:

class Heap
{
public:
	virtual ~Heap() = default;
	bool isValid() const { return handle_.isValid(); }
	virtual UniqueFD alloc(const char *name, std::size_t size) = 0;

protected:
	UniqueFD handle_;
};

class DmaHeap : public Heap
{
public:
	DmaHeap();
	~DmaHeap();
	UniqueFD alloc(const char *name, std::size_t size) override;
};

class UdmaHeap : public Heap
{
public:
	UdmaHeap();
	~UdmaHeap();
	UniqueFD alloc(const char *name, std::size_t size) override;
};

I wonder if we even need to define an header for the Heap and derived
subclasses at all or they could be defined inside the
heap_allocator.cpp file (assuming no other component is meant to use
them).

Are these headers used ?
