Carefully track cases when skipping broken or invalid NAL units is
necessary. In particular, always allow NAL units to be processed
and let that gst_h264_parse_process_nal() function decide on whether
the current NAL needs to be dropped or not.
This fixes parsing of streams with SEI NAL buffering_period() message
inserted between SPS and PPS, or SPS-Ext NAL following a traditional
SPS NAL unit, among other cases too.
Practical examples from the H.264 AVC conformance suite include
alphaconformanceG, CVSE2_Sony_B, CVSE3_Sony_H, CVSEFDFT3_Sony_E
when parsing in stream-format=byte-stream,alignment=au mode.

Improve parser state tracking by introducing new flags reflecting
it: "got-sps", "got-pps" and "got-slice". This is an addition for
robustness purposes.
Older have_sps and have_pps variables are kept because they have
a different meaning. i.e. they are used for deciding on when to
submit updated caps or not, and rather mean "have new SPS/PPS to
be submitted?"
Always default to stream-format=byte-stream,alignment=nalu if avcC
format was not detected. This is the natural stream format specified
in the standard (Annex.B): a series of NAL units prefixed with the
usual start code.

Use gst_h264_parser_identify_nalu_unchecked() to identify the next
NAL unit. We don't want to parse the full NAL unit, but only the
header bytes and possibly the first RBSP byte for identifying the
first_mb_in_slice syntax element.
Also fix check for failure when returning from that function. The
only success condition for that is GST_H264_PARSER_OK, so use it.

The built-in video parsers elements are built into a single DSO named
libgstvaapi_parse.so. The various video parsers could be accessed as
vaapiparse_CODEC.
For now, this only includes a modified version of h264parse so that to
support H.264 MVC encoded streams.
