Changing the input caps and not using them anymore afterwards is useless, and
it breaks negotiation in pipelines like:
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! "video/x-raw,framerate=25/1,interlace-mode=interleaved" !
deinterlace fields=all ! "video/x-raw,framerate=50/1,interlace-mode=progressive" !

Commit bd27a1f30b added a few error handling
memory management checks. These check srccaps to see if it needs to be
unreferenced before returning, in the case of invalid_caps this goto jump
always happens before srccaps is set, so it will always be NULL in this
error label.

If the following conditions are met:
1) upstream and downstream caps are compatible
2) upstream is interlaced
3) downstream doesn't support progressive mode
then deinterlace will just do passthrough instead of failing to link.
This is done with the following scenario in mind:
videotestsrc ! "video/x-raw,interlace-mode=interleaved" ! deinterlace
name=dein_src ! tee name=t ! queue ! deinterlace name=dein_file ! filesink t. !
queue ! deinterlace name=dein_desktop ! autovideosink
In this case, dein_src will do the deinterlacing. However,
videotestsrc ! "video/x-raw,interlace-mode=interleaved" ! deinterlace
name=dein_src ! tee name=t ! queue ! deinterlace name=dein_file ! filesink t. !
queue ! deinterlace name=dein_desktop ! autovideosink t. ! queue !
"video/x-raw,interlace-mode=interleaved" ! fakesink
In this case, caps auto-negotiation will make dein_file and dein_desktop do
the deinterlacing, while dein_src will be passthrough.

In this mode we will passthrough all progressive caps but interlaced caps must be
caps where we actually support deinterlacing.
This is the only difference between auto and auto-strict, auto would
passthrough all unsupported interlaced caps.

Previously the result of the CAPS query and ACCEPT_CAPS depended on what kind
of caps were last set, and e.g. if we last had interlaced caps or not. That's
just broken.
Also previously the handling of non-sysmem caps features was rather random and
unusuable.
Now the behaviour is the following, depending on the mode property:
1) mode=disabled
Completely do passthrough of everything
2) mode=interlaced
Only accept formats we can actually deinterlace, and accept interlaced
and progressive content and always run the deinterlacer and output
progressive content
3) mode=auto (i.e. playbin)
Accept all progressive formats as passthrough, accept all formats that we
can deinterlace ourselves (which we do then), but also accept everything
else for which we then just passthrough. In auto mode, deinterlacing is best
effort: If we can, we deinterlace, if we can't we just output interlaced
content.

Implement accept-caps handler to avoid doing a full caps query
downstream to handle it.
This commit implements accept-caps as a simplification of the _getcaps
function, so it exposes the same limitations that getcaps would.
For example, not accepting renegotiation to caps with capsfeatures when
it was last configured to a caps that it has to deinterlace.
In some cases the currently set GstVideoInfo is not interlaced, but
upstream caps are interlaced and the info is passed in the filter,
we should take that info into account and make sure that we do not
consider that case as a "pass through" case.

gstdeinterlace.c: In function 'gst_deinterlace_output_frame':
gstdeinterlace.c:1537:57: error: 'pattern.length' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
This actually is always initialized before it is used there, but
let's just silence gcc here.
The code handles a -1 pattern index, and it seems plausible
that a pattern might be found later, so it seems best to not
send an element error here.

This only affects behaviour in telecine cases with pattern locking
enabled. The default case should be untouched.
This works with the output from fieldanalysis at least, but the field
order looks swapped for telecine mixed buffers with the
David_slides_Schleef clip.
I don't understand why these lines were added, they don't make sense to
me now and both David and I agree that removing them moves closer to
related logic being correct, therefore, they're being removed.
I've tested a few progressive, interlaced and telecine clips and they
all behave properly timestamp-wise and visually after these changes.
