Since the stream API is still experimental it is currently locked away
behind the internal, default disabled, v4l2_subdev_enable_streams_api flag.

Advertising V4L2_SUBDEV_CAP_STREAMS when the streams API is disabled
confuses userspace. E.g. it causes the following libcamera error:

ERROR SimplePipeline simple.cpp:1497 Failed to reset routes for
  /dev/v4l-subdev1: Inappropriate ioctl for device

Don't report V4L2_SUBDEV_CAP_STREAMS when the streams API is disabled
to avoid problems like this.
