Allocate decoder unit earlier in the main parse() function and don't
delegate this task to derived classes. The ultimate purpose is to get
rid of dynamic allocation of decoder units.
Add new gst_vaapi_decoder_get_frame() function meant to be used with
gst_vaapi_decoder_decode(). The purpose is to return the next decoded
frame as a GstVideoCodecFrame and the associated GstVaapiSurfaceProxy
as the user-data object.
Use standard GstVideoCodecState throughout GstVaapiDecoder and expose
it with a new gst_vaapi_decoder_get_codec_state() function. This makes
it possible to drop picture size (width, height) information, framerate
(fps_n, fps_d) information, pixel aspect ratio (par_n, par_d) information,
and interlace mode (is_interlaced field).
This is a new API with backwards compatibility maintained. In particular,
gst_vaapi_decoder_get_caps() is still available.

Align gst_vaapi_decoder_get_surface() semantics with the rest of the
API. That is, return a GstVaapiDecoderStatus and the decoded surface
as a handle to GstVaapiSurfaceProxy in parameter.
This is an API/ABI change.
Introduce new decoding process whereby a GstVideoCodecFrame is created
first. Next, input stream buffers are accumulated into a GstAdapter,
that is then passed to the _parse() function. The GstVaapiDecoder object
accumulates all parsed units and when a complete frame or field is
detected, that GstVideoCodecFrame is passed to the _decode() function.
Ultimately, the caller receives a GstVaapiSurfaceProxy if decoding
process was successful.
The start_frame() hook is called prior to traversing all decode-units
for decoding. The unit argument represents the first slice in the frame.
Some codecs (e.g. H.264) need to wait for the first slice in order to
determine the actual VA context parameters.
Split decoding process into two steps: (i) parse incoming bitstreams
into simple decoder-units until the frame or field is complete; and
(ii) decode the whole frame or field at once.
This is an ABI change.
Reset, i.e. destroy then create, the decoder in _setcaps() handler only
if the underlying codec type actually changed. This makes it possible
to be more tolerant with certain MPEG-2 streams that get parsed to
form caps that are compatible with the previous state but minor changes
to "codec-data".
Forward declaring enums is not allowed by the C standard and aborts
compilation if the header file is included in a C++ project.
