[PATCH v4 4/4] apps: cam: Print control direction information

Now that there is support for retrieving the allowed directions of a
control, print this information when listing controls.

Sample output:
$ cam --list-controls -c 2
Using camera Virtual0 as cam0
Control: [inout] draft::FaceDetectMode:
  - FaceDetectModeOff (0)
Control: [inout] libcamera::FrameDurationLimits: [16666..33333]
   Size: 2
