Further get rid of GstVaapiPictureH264-local VAPictureH264.flags for
reference bits, thus simplifying the reference picture marking process
to only track a single set of reference flags. Also introduce a new
long_term_frame_idx member.
Add vaapi_fill_picture() helper function to convert GstVaapiPictureH264
to VAPictureH264 structure. This is preparatory work to get rid of the
local VAPictureH264 member in GstVaapiPictureH264.
Delay ensure_context() until we actually need a VA context for allocating
new VA surfaces, and then GstVaapiPictures, but also when a real activation
of a new picture parameter set occurs, thus also implying an activation
of the related sequence parameter set.
The most important thing was to drop the global pps and sps pointers since
they may not have matched the currently activated picture parameter or
sequence parameter sets at the specified decode point.
Anoter positive side-effect is that this cleans up all occurrences of
decode_current_picture() to only keep those useful in decode_picture(),
before a new picture is allocated, or in decode_sequence_end() when
an end-of-stream or end-of-sequence condition occurred.
... aka fix regression from efaab79. In particular, ScalingList8x8[]
array was partially copied to the VAIQMatrixBufferH264. While we are
at it, also improve bounds checking and avoid copying 8x8 scaling
lists if transform_8x8_mode_flag is set to 0.
Don't copy scaling lists twice to an intermediate state. Rather, directly
use the scaling lists from GstH264PPS since they would match those provided
by SPS header, if necessary. i.e. if PPS-specific scaling lists are not
available in the bitstream.
Remove exit_picture() and exit_picture_poc() since PicOrderCnt(CurrPic)
is now updated accordingly to the standard. Besides, MMCO = 5 specific
operations are moved up to exec_ref_pic_marking_adaptive_mmco_5().
Fix adaptive memory control decoded reference picture marking process
implementation for operations 2 to 6, thus also fixing support for
long-term reference pictures.
This change only splits each individual MMCO handler into several functions
dedicated for each operation. This is needed to perform further work later
on.
Allow build with strict DPB ordering mode whereby evicted entries
are replaced by the next entries, in order instead of optimizing
it away with the last entry in the DPB.
This is only useful for debugging purpose, against a reference SW
decoder for example.
GstH264SliceHdr.n_emulation_prevention_bytes is bound to exist now that
a newer version of codecparsers/ are used if the system provided one is
now recent enough to have those required extensions.
Propagate pixel-aspect-ratio determined by the GStreamer codecparser
from the sequence headers.

Split decode_buffer() into the core infrastructure that determines
the NAL units contained in the adapter and the actual function that
decodes the NAL unit.
Maintaining the sub-buffer is rather suboptimal especially since we
were also maintaining a GstAdapter. Now, we only use the GstAdapter
thus requiring minor extra parsing when receiving avcC buffers.
Unlike what VA-API documentation defines, the slice_data_bit_offset
represents the offset to the first macroblock in the slice data, minus
any emulation prevention bytes in the slice_header().
This fix copes with binary-only VA drivers that won't be fixed any
time soon. Besides, this aligns with the current FFmpeg behaviour
that was based on those proprietary drivers implementing the API
incorrectly.
This ensures the VA context is clear when the encoded resolution
changes. i.e. make sure older picture is decoded with the older
VA context before it changes.
Only the explicit pred_weight_table(), possibly with the inferred default
values, shall be required. e.g. don't fill in the table if weighted_pred_flag
is not set for P/SP slices.
