camera3: Add flush

Flush is used to quiesce a camera device as quickly as possible, which
can be used to deal with a pathological client (requests a frame
duration of hours then dying) as well as speed up stream configuration
changes when the outstanding requests data isn't required.

/**
* flush:
*
* Flush all currently in-process captures and all buffers in the pipeline
* on the given device. The framework will use this to dump all state as
* quickly as possible in order to prepare for a configure_streams() call.
*
* No buffers are required to be successfully returned, so every buffer
* held at the time of flush() (whether sucessfully filled or not) may be
* returned with CAMERA3_BUFFER_STATUS_ERROR. Note the HAL is still allowed
* to return valid (STATUS_OK) buffers during this call, provided they are
* succesfully filled.
*
* All requests currently in the HAL are expected to be returned as soon as
* possible. Not-in-process requests should return errors immediately. Any
* interruptible hardware blocks should be stopped, and any uninterruptible
* blocks should be waited on.
*
* flush() should only return when there are no more outstanding buffers or
* requests left in the HAL. The framework may call configure_streams (as
* the HAL state is now quiesced) or may issue new requests.
*
* A flush() call should only take 100ms or less. The maximum time it can
* take is 1 second.
*
* Version information:
*
* only available if device version >= CAMERA_DEVICE_API_VERSION_3_1.
*
* Return values:
*
* 0: On a successful flush of the camera HAL.
*
* -EINVAL: If the input is malformed (the device is not valid).
*
* -ENODEV: If the camera device has encountered a serious error. After this
* error is returned, only the close() method can be successfully
* called by the framework.
