This fixes a memory leak. When dropframe-threshold has been set,
libvpx may output less frames than the input ones, which causes
some GstVideoCodecFrames to queue up in GstVideoEncoder's internal
frame queue with no chance of ever being all released. And because
the frames keep references to the input buffers, the input buffer
pool keeps allocating new buffers and memory usage grows very fast.
For example the following pipeline's memory usage grows at a rate
of about 1GB per minute!
videotestsrc ! capsfilter caps=video/x-raw,width=1920,height=1080,framerate=30/1,format=I420 ! \
vp8enc target-bitrate=1000000 end-usage=cbr dropframe-threshold=95 ! fakesink

Callers of the API (rtpsource, rtpjitterbuffer) pass clock_rate
as a signed integer, and the comparison "<= 0" is used against
it, leading me to think the intention was to have the field
be typed as gint32, not guint32.
This led to situations where we could call scale_int with
a MAX_UINT32 (-1) guint32 as the denom, thus raising an
assertion.

Only plugin entry points should be exported.
Currently plugins might export more symbols with
the meson build, as we don't have the exports
regexp there that we pass to libtool.
These have been copy pasted all over the place and are not used anymore.
All object have it's own category now. This fixes build warning since
the VP9 decoder had vp8 category declared.
Whenever we import from downstream pool (userptr or dmabuf-import), we
should copy over the flags and timestamp, otherwise downstream will not
get proper synchronization or will not be able to notice frames that has
corruption in it.

Removes the FIXME/Question in the buffer pool and add a ref to the
element in the GstAllocator too. This ref is strictly required to keep
the GstV4l2Object structure around.
The library has started preventing a lot of interesting use cases,
like CREATE_BUFS, DMABuf, usage of TRY_FMT. As the libv4l2 is totally
inactive and not maintained, we decided to disable it. As a convenience
we added a run-time environment that let you enable it for testing.
GST_V4L2_USE_LIBV4L2=1
This of course only works if you have enabled libv4l2 at build time.
While not documented, gst_video_colorimetry_matches() only accepts well
known names. Looking at the code and unit test, this seems to be on
purpose, so fixing by parsing the string and compating the colorimetry
structures.
The subclass negotiated function will call set_format, if that fails the
pool will not be created. We ended up with an assertion.
GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_buffer_pool_set_active: assertion 'GST_IS_BUFFER_POOL (pool)' failed
In this commit, we enabled skip_try_fmt_probes quirk in order to speed
up the start which is known to be disastrously slow with certain USB
cameras.
This has the side effect that we needed to rewrite the entire
negotiation process in a way that we iterate over the possible caps
until we find one that works.
The new negotiation method consist of extracting a preferred structure
from the peer caps and using this to fixate and sort the caps. To
reflect the old behaviour, we sort all resolution strictly bigger
to the preferred one with the closes one first. The rest is appended,
keeping the same order. We then normalize the caps in case there was
some list of interlace-mode or colorimetry left. We finally iterate
over all fixed caps and try it. 99% of the time, the first or the
second one should work, whit the result of a single S_FMT being issues.
From there, it will be relatively easy to introduce new negotiation
algorithm. The current algorithm is made for optimal image quality
with a scaling sink that sets it's window resolution as preference.
This the case if for:
v4l2src ! videoconvert ! videoscale ! ximagesink
Other strategy would be needed to optimize for non-scaling sink like
ximagesink or kmssink when the driver does not scale.

skip_try_fmt_probes quirk is set, V4L2 object will not probe for
interlace-mode and colorimetry to avoid relying on try_fmt. This quirk
will be used by v4l2src to avoid desastrous startup time with slow
USB webcams.
When this quirk is enabled, caller will have to iterate over the
negotiated caps as it may contains unsupported formats. If the peer
didn't choose a specific interlace-mode, or colorimetry, the value
chosen by the driver is set into the caps. For this reason, when this
mode is enabled, gst_v4l2_object_set_format() will require writable
caps.

According to the spec,TRY_FMT cannot return EBUSY, though it can
return EINVAL if it was not possible to update the format to
something supported.

This is in preparation for removing slow TRY_FMT probes for
colorimetry. As we won't have tried that colorimetry we cannot
assume the driver will accept it.

This is in preparation from removing the slow TRY_FMT probes for
interlacing. As we won't have tried that interlace-mode already
we need to validate that the driver isn't refusing it.
