Previously the minimum buffering threshold was hardcoded to a specific
value (10s). This is suboptimal this an actual value will depend on the actual
stream being played.
This commit sets the low watermark threshold in time to 0, which is an automatic
mode. Subclasses can provide a stream `recommended_buffering_threshold` when
update_stream_info() is called.
Currently implemented for HLS, where we recommended 1.5 average segment
duration. This will result in buffering being at 100% when the 2nd segment has
been downloaded (minus a bit already being consumed downstream)

This is an additional quality parameter. In the default configuration this
quality switch is deactivated because it would cause a workload increase
which might be significant. If workload is not an issue in the application
it can be recommended to activate this feature.
A flush request is done when set_format is called to empty internal bit
buffer maintained by fdk-aac. When this happens, during the explicit
call to handle_buffer, decodeFrame does not return a AAC_DEC_OK. This
gets reported as a decoding error while no decoding error in fact took
place. Since this can be confusing, just return a GST_FLOW_OK and log
that an explicit flush was requested.
In order to figure out if the "raw" audio contained within the wav
container is actually DTS, right now we call the typefinder helper
which runs all typefinders.
Speed up this type finding process by specifying the extension.

When running a pipeline like above, leaks are observed.

gst_element_release_request_pad does not unref the pad. It needs to
be followed by gst_object_unref. Doing that fixes the above leaks.
Use g_ptr_array_new_with_free_func with gst_object_unref as the free
function to unref the pad after release.

Posting latency messages causes a full and potentially expensive latency
recalculation of the pipeline. While subclasses should check whether the latency
really changed or not before calling this function, we ensure that we do not
post such messages if it didn't change.

The picture parameter picture->top_field_first is reused in this mode
to signal the TOP fields. As a side effect, it will change every frame
and current code assumed that if this changes then a renegotiation is
needed. Fixed this by ignoring that change whenever we are decoding one field
only.

In fact, all the h264 bit writer have byte aligned output except
the slice header. So we change the API from bit size in unit to
byte size, which is easy to use. For slice header, we add a extra
"trail_bits_num" to return the unaligned bits number.

We use va pool as msdkvpp's bufferpool, which means both va memory
and dma memory will be allocated by va pool. Considering drm modifier
stuff is not ready, we use va memory with higher priortiry than
dma memory when deciding vpp caps.
Besides, this patch removes the specified "interlace-mode" in vpp caps.

The gap handling was in place, but there was no event handler to trigger it.
Implement the alpha sink event handler for the gaps. This fixes handling of
valid streams which may not refresh the alpha frames for every video frames.
It will also allow a clean error if the stream was missing the initial
alpha frame, at least until we find a better way to handle these
invalid frames.

Handle when encoder doesn't support rate control, which is set as
VA_RC_NONE, and if the set rate control mode is not supported by the
GStreamer element, the element configuration fails.
Also it logs out max and target bitrate.

The entrypoint is set when the encoder helper is constructed,
nonetheless it was also passed as parameter when opening. That's
buggy.
In order to simplify the code, the entrypoint at construction is
honored.
But gst_va_encoder_has_profile_and_entrypoint() now doesn't rely in
the internal list of profiles since it only contains those that
belongs to codec and entrypoint, thus it queries directly the VA
driver.
