Up to now, tttocea608 supported text/utf8, and no interface to
control the positioning of closed captions apart from new lines
in the input text.
CEA 608 supports a larger set of features than that, such as
positioning CC precisely in its 32 x 15 grid, styling text,
switching from one mode to another, resetting the base row
in roll-up mode etc ..
A custom, JSON-based format is now supported by the element
(caps application/x-json, format=cea608), allowing users to
control those features in a pretty advanced manner.
A side effect of this is that the approach previously used
by the element to ensure frame-accurate CC display is now
untenable: where we knew before that an input buffer would
at most span 74 buffers and calculate a somewhat reasonable
latency based on that, this is no longer possible. Instead
we pick the approach most CC encoders seem to pick, and
accept a certain latency at display time: for example the
flipping of the back buffer to the display buffer for a
10-character text buffer will occur 7 frames after its
PTS. This has obvious benefits in terms of code complexity
and should generally be acceptable.
+ Removes a now irrelevant test, updates other tests
+ Extracts the Mode enum to the root of the crate, it will
be used by another element in a follow-up commit
