Querying and setting the shutter mode

The sensors of the uEye camera models use either rolling or global shutter. In addition, there are some models that support multiple shutter modes:

•UI-124x/UI-324x/UI-524x and UI-125x/UI-325x/UI-525x allow switching between different shutter modes.

•UI-148x/UI-348x/UI-548x, UI-158x/UI-358x/UI-558x, UI-359xCP/UI-359xLE Rev. 2, UI-386x/UI-586x, and UI-388x/UI-588x allow the use of the global start function.
