If the run_async() method is expected to be called from streaming
thread and not from application thread, use INFINITE as timeout value
so that d3d11window can wait UI dispatcher thread in any case.
There is no way to get a robust timeout value from library side.
So the fixed timeout value might not be optimal and therefore
we should avoid it as much as possible.
Rule whether a timeout value can be INFINITE or not is,
* If the waiting can be cancelled by GstBaseSink:unlock(), use INFINITE.
GstD3D11Window:on_resize() is one case for example.
* Otherwise, use timeout value
Some details are, GstBaseSink:start() and GstBaseSink:stop() will be called
when NULL to READY or READY to NULL state change, so there will be no
chance for GstBaseSink:unlock() and GstBaseSink:unlock_stop()
to be called around them. So there is no other way then timeout way.
GstD3D11Window:consturcted() and GstD3D11Window:unprepare() are the case.

All subclasses are retrieving list to get target output frame, which
can be done by baseclass. And pass the ownership of the GstH264Picture
to subclass so that subclass can clear implementation dependent resources
before finishing the frame.

We don't need to duplicate a method for HRESULT error code to string
conversion. This patch is intended to
* Remove duplicated code
* Ensure FormatMessageW (Unicode version) and avoid FormatMessageA
(ANSI version), as the ANSI format is not portable at all.
Note that if "UNICODE" is not defined, FormatMessageA will be aliased
as FormatMessage by default.

Current shader code is not compatible with HLSL profile "ps_4_0_level_9_3"
or lower. So d3dcompiler cannot compile our shader code in that case.
Note that VirtualBox is one known driver which doesn't support currently
implemented shader code.

d3d11videosink has an advantage over d3dvideosink, such as
* Zero-copy playback with d3d11 decoders
* HDR rendering with 10-bit format/swapchain support
* UWP support
* Any system memory alignment/padding can be supported
* User can select target GPU device
And old d3dvideosink's functionality (e.g., navigation event, overlaycomposition)
can be covered by d3d11videosink

If parent and child windows are running on different thread,
there is always a chance to cause deadlock as DefWindowProc() call
from child window thread might be blocked until the message
is handled by parent's window procedure.

GObject::dispose method can be called multiple times. As win32 d3d11window
has an internal thread and because GObject::dispose method could be called from the
thread, it might cause problems such as trying to join self-thread

GstD3D11ColorConverter implementation is able to rescale video as well.
By doing colorspace conversion and rescale at once, we can save
one cycle of shader pipeline which will can save GPU resource.
Since this element can support color space conversion and rescale,
it's renamed as d3d11convert

D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG flag will be used while creating d3d11 device
to activate debug layer. However, if system doesn't support the
debug layer for some reason, we should try to create d3d11 device
without the flag. Debug layer should be optional for device creation.

We should directly check the values of the `debug` and `optimization`
options instead.
`get_option('buildtype')` will return `'custom'` for most combinations
of `-Doptimization` and `-Ddebug`, but those two will always be set
correctly if only `-Dbuildtype` is set. So we should look at those
options directly.
For the two-way mapping between `buildtype` and `optimization`
+ `debug`, see this table:
