Coverity scan bug:
The copied code will not have its intended effect.
This is a bug from commit cdaf15b2, where the intention is to
initialize RefPicList1 while setting RefPicList0.
Coverity scan bug:
Unintentional integer overflow. The expression's value may not be what
the programmer intended, because the expression is evaluated using a
narrow (i.e. few bits) integer type.
Cast operator to guint64 before computation to avoid narrowing.

Using num_ref_frames provided and the result of the Query
VAConfigAttribEncMaxRefFrames, it determines the size of reference list
and perform encoding with multi reference frames as the following:
1\ The num_ref_frames is being considered as the number of
reference picture list0
2\ Encoder adds 1 reference frame more to the reference picture list1
internally if b-frame encoding.
3\ If num_ref_frames is bigger than the number of refrence frames
supported in the driver, it will be lowered.

Users can provide the number of reference frame by this property.
The value of the property will be considered as the number of
reference picture list0 and will add 1 reference frame more to the
reference picture list1 internally if b-frame encoding.
If the value provided is bigger than the number of refrence frames
supported in the driver, it will be lowered.

Added a new property "compliance-mode", which default is the normal
strict compliant mode.
The second mode, "restrict-buf-alloc", is to limit the coded buffer
allocation size to improve performance in some specific Intel
platforms (there is asignificant performance improvement in parallel
encodings). Under this new mode, we use the MinCR field in A.3.1 for
pre-calculating the coded-buffer size.

If the picture is IDR, also submit a SPS header.
This means when frame number reaches to keyframe-period or an force

GST_VIDEO_CODEC_FRAME_IS_FORCE_KEYFRAME() is a flag usually used to manage
the `frame-lost` event in the case of streaming, such as RTP.
In case of this event, it is needed to start new GOP rather than just
produce an I-frame.

Insert an AUD as the first NAL of each encoded frame.
Some applications require Access Unit Delimiter for decoding the
stream.
The AU delimeter insertion is done only when the aud parameter is
TRUE (by default is disabled). The reason of this it is because this
header is only available from Intel Gen9 and the VA intel driver
should be 1.8 or superior. Otherwise, the output will be corrupted.

Currently when num_views is changed by multiview-mode on sink caps, it produces
wrong MVC encoded stream since the array view_ids is not set properly according
to changed num_views.
So this patch initializes all of the array sequentially to handle this case.
Side effect is not going to happen by this patch since this array is being
handled by num_views.

Until now, the encoder ignored the profile in src caps and chose one
according with the given parameters. But the encoder must honor the
profile specifed in src caps.
This patch do that, and if the encoder needs to choose the profile,
it will do it by following these rules:
1\ If given parameters are not compatible with given profile, the
encoder will bail out with an error.
2\ The encoder will choose the higher profile indicated in the
src caps.

Instead of recalculating the miscellaneous buffer parameters for
every buffer, it is only done once, when the encoder is configured.
And for every buffer, the same structures are just copied.

This is patch pretends to decouple the assignation of the values
in the parameter structures and the VA buffer's parameters setting.
It may lead to some issues since HRD, framerate or controlrate may
not be handled by the specific encoder, but they are set in
the VA buffer's parameters.
I leave as it because this patch is just a transitional patch.

Right now, H264 and HEVC can set as a property the number of slices to
process. But each driver can set a maximum number of slices, depending
on the supported profile & entry point.
This patch verifies the current num_slices to process against the maximum

This patch adds the handling of VAEncMiscParameterTypeQualityLevel,
in gstreamer-vaapi encoders:
The encoding quality could be set through this structure, if the
implementation supports multiple quality levels. The quality level set
through this structure is persistent over the entire coded sequence, or
until a new structure is being sent. The quality level range can be queried
through the VAConfigAttribEncQualityRange attribute. A lower value means
higher quality, and a value of 1 represents the highest quality. The quality
level setting is used as a trade-off between quality and speed/power
consumption, with higher quality corresponds to lower speed and higher power
consumption.
The quality level is set by the element's parameter "quality-level" with a
hard-coded range of 1 to 8.
Later, when the encoder is configured in run time, just before start
processing, the quality level is scaled to the codec range. If
VAConfigAttribEncQualityRange is not available in the used VA backend, then
the quality level is set to zero, which means "disabled".
All the available codecs now process this parameter if it is available.

The current implementation is updating the POC values only
in Slice parameter Buffer.But we are not filling the
picture order count and reference flags in VAPictureH264

from VAPicutreH264 provided as RefPicLists, which resulted

unit length and data to a bitwriter.
Note that this helper function applies EPB (Emulation Prevention

decoder/parser considering EPB, starts parsing.
See sections 7.3 and 7.4 of the H264 and H264 specifications, which
describes the emulation_prevention_three_byte.

Change defaults for max-bframes, cabac, and dct8x8 to be enabled
by default. This will cause the default profile to be high instead
of baseline. In most situations this is the right decision, and
the profile can still be lowered in the case of caps restrictions.

This is a workaround since vaapi-intel-driver doesn't have
support for B-frame encode when utilizing low-power-enc
hardware block.

buffer pool size etc based on the query result.
