Various functions in libavcodec need them, like the format, sample rate, etc.
and just having them in the context is not enough.
This fixes draining for codecs like MP2 that require a fixed frame size and
require libav to pad the last frame if required.
The GObject macros either for GstFFMpegVidDec and GstFFMpegVidEnc can
break the compilation because they are not GTypes, since each av video
elements are registered in runtime.

Remove calls to gst_pad_has_current_caps() which then go on to call
gst_pad_get_current_caps() as the caps can go to NULL in between. Instead just
use gst_pad_get_current_caps() and check for NULL.

It has its own allocator that is not necessarily doing the same as malloc and
will then usually crash. E.g. on Windows or when memalign() is available.
In ffmpeg this is the same as FRONT_CENTER, but we distinguish between
FRONT_CENTER and MONO in GStreamer. Add an explicit mapping for this special
case in the translations functions.

Handling slice_offset in avviddec is resulting in invalid memory read.
Since rv decoders anyways handle slice_offset, removing the same to fix
memory mishandlings

Error out if system's libav* libraries are not
provided by FFmpeg. Libav-incompatible changes
were introduced to support the latter so we
can no longer support both.

Libav-incompatible changes were introduced to support
FFmpeg and we can no longer properly support Libav.
FFmpeg micro versions for libav* start at 100 (this was
done to differentiate from Libav builds). We use this
to bail at configure time if the system libav* libraries
are not provided by FFmpeg.

If downstream does not provide a (usable) pool, we would use our internal
pool. But the internal pool might be configured with a different width/height
because of padding, which then will cause problems if we push buffers from it
directly downstream.
Instead create a new pool if the width/height is different.
This prevents crashes with vaapisink and d3dvideosink for example.
