libcamera: add configs pipelines for testing

vimc:
Is a driver that emulates complex video hardware, and is
useful for testing libcamera without needing access to a physical
camera. We would like to add support to the libcamera vimc
pipeline handler for multiple simultaneous streams, to ease
testing of such mechanism. This also requires adding multistream
support to the vimc driver in the Linux kernel.

virtual:
Is a specialized handler designed to create software-based,
virtual camera devices. It allows for testing, debugging, and
simulating camera pipelines without needing physical hardware,
often producing test patterns (e.g., all green frames) via qcam.
This enables developers to emulate camera sensors and
Image Signal Processors (ISPs) within the libcamera
