The service for AlliedVision cameras written #133 is ready uses the Vimba driver. Allied Vision recently released a new driver, called VimbaX.

Eventually, and probably not in the foreseeable future, we will want to test the service compatibility with the VimbaX driver and the respective new Python package, VmbPy: https://github.com/alliedvision/VmbPy/
(as opposed to the Python package used for Vimba, which is VimbaPython: https://github.com/alliedvision/VimbaPython)

So, the main goal of this issue is to rewrite the AlliedVisionCamera service to use VmbPy with VimbaX.

The Python API seems to be exactly the same, so it could just mean having the hardware service check which driver is installed and using the correct package accordingly. In particular:
