Description
Hi!
In one of our Projects, we use the Arducam OV9281. We want to transition to libcamera, since they have deprecated their MIPI Driver.
Now for the actual problem: Our product relies on the external trigger functionality. After skimming through this repo and a bit of trial-and-error, I'm not really sure this is supported in libcamera with this module.
I've seen that #5260 e6a7eed8db3c41fce11d8bf7005819f1f302a9ee added support for the OV7251 external trigger, so maybe the process would be similar?

Done means the OV9281 supports the external-trigger functionality required by the reported product use case.
