Description

There should probably be a "None" pipeline type to allow teams to use the camera for custom vision processing or temporarily disable a camera for CPU purposes without needing to unplug it.

Research direction

Start by tracing where the built-in vision pipeline claims and configures the camera, then identify how pipeline types are represented. Done means a None option can leave the camera available for custom vision processing or disable it without unplugging the device, with the relevant behavior covered by tests if the project has them.
