This cleans up the documentation a bit, adds information about the "raspberrypi" fork of libcamera and instructions for troubleshooting common issues with camera detection and buffer allocation, both specifically on the Raspberry Pi.
The documentation now mentions that the official upstream version of libcamera may not support all, and especially newer, Raspberry Pi Camera Modules. A common pitfall of Raspberry Pi users is that they use the official upstream version with newer camera modules, which then cannot be detected (#67, #72).
This repo will attempt to support the official upstream and forked versions, but users have to install the "raspberrypi" fork themselves. The documentation now makes this more clear and hopefully avoids confusions about the different libcamera versions and their supported camera modules.
Fixes #67, Fixes #72.
