* cudaupload/download
- Specify only formats actually we can deal with
nvcodec elements, not all video formats
- Supports CUDA output for download and input for upload in order
to make passthrough possible, like other upload/download elements.
* cudabasetransform
- Reset conversion element if upstream CUDA memory
holds different CUDA context and the element can accept it.
This is the same behavior as corresponding d3d11 filter elements.

It's almost pointless and makes little sense as subclass might
want to modify refcount of the object or so. And all subclasses
are already casting them to non-const version as well.
In a general sense, we need to avoid passing refcounted object
with const qualifier.

boolean return value is not sufficient for representing the reason
of error in most cases. For instance, any errors around new_sequence()
would mean negotiation error, not just *ERROR*.
And some subclasses will allocate buffer/memory/surface on new_picture()
but it could be failed because of expected error, likely flushing
