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.

Description

Limelight Pending

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.
