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.

This moves the ABI check to the registration, so we don't expose
decoders with the wrong ABI or that are just broken somehow. It
also makes few enhancement:
- Handle missing, but required controls
- Prints the controls macro name instead of id
This should fix RK3399 support with a currently release minor
regression in the Hantro driver that cause errors.

As now, we warn if the decoder have no support src pixel format, but that
warning is called before the type (hence the debug category) is initialized.
Fix this by moving the debug category init out of the type initialization,
into the register funcitons.
This will fix an assertion that occures in the register function and allow
relevant log to be seen by the users.

The V4L2 uAPI uses pic_num for both PicNum and ShortTermPicNum. It also
doe the same for both FrameNum and LongTermFrameIdx. This change does
not change the fluster score, but fixed a visual corruption noticed
with some third party streams.

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
