+/* Autogain + exposure algorithm for cameras with a coarse exposure control
+ (usually this means we can only control the clockdiv to change exposure)
+ As changing the clockdiv so that the fps drops from 30 to 15 fps for
+ example, will lead to a huge exposure change (it effectively doubles),
+ this algorithm normally tries to only adjust the gain (between 40 and
+ 80 %) and if that does not help, only then changes exposure. This leads
+ to a much more stable image then using the knee algorithm which at
+ certain points of the knee graph will only try to adjust exposure,
+ which leads to oscilating as one exposure step is huge.
+
+ Note this assumes that the sd struct for the cam in question has
+ exp_too_high_cnt and exp_too_high_cnt int members for use by this function.
+
+ Returns 0 if no changes were made, 1 if the gain and or exposure settings
+ where changed. */
