In some cases, rendering and dxgi (e.g., swapchain) APIs should be
called from window message pump thread, but current design (dedicated d3d11 thread)
make it impossible. To solve it, change concurrency model to locking based one
from single-thread model.
In earlier implementation of d3d11videosink where no shader was implemented,
the aspect ratio and render size were adjusted by manipulating the backbuffer size
with unintuitive formula. Since now we do color conversion and resize using
shader, we can remove the hack.
window event queue now does not lock on the class lock, so we can now shut
it down without releasing the class lock, thus avoiding a potential race when
stopping the sink.
According to H264 ITU standards from 06/19, GST_H264_PROFILE_HIGH_422
(profile_idc = 122) with constraint_set1_flag = 0 and
constraint_set3_flag = 0 can be mapped to high-4:2:2 or high-4:4:4.
GST_H264_PROFILE_HIGH_422 with constraint_set1_flag = 0 and
constraint_set3_flag = 1 can be mapped to high-4:2:2, high-4:4:4,
high-4:2:2-intra or high-4:4:4-intra.
It cleans up videoFormat by combining the wl_shm_formats and
drm_formats into a single table that represents the same format.
In addition, it adds NV61 format to the waylandsink.
... and use SetParent() WIN32 API when external window is used.
Depending on DXGI swap effect, the external window might not be
reusable by another backend. To preserve the external window's property
and setting, drawing to internal window seems to be safer way.
Otherwise GstVideoDecoder is not finalized and
resources are leaked.
Somehow GST_TRACERS="leaks" GST_DEBUG="GST_TRACER:7" did not catch it.

An issue can be seen when using msdkh265enc with bitrate change in
playing state. The root cause is the corresponding plugin is loaded
again.
Returning MFX_ERR_UNDEFINED_BEHAVIOR from MSDK just means the plugin has
been loaded, so we may ignore this error when doing configuation again
in the sub class, otherwise the pipeline will be interrupted
If d3d11window does not convert format internally, shader resource view
is not required. Note that shader resource view is used for
color conversion using shader but when conversion is not required,
we just copy input input texture to backbuffer.
In theory it should not happen but it happened to me
in some cases where it failed to allocate some video
buffers so this was a consequence of a corner case.
Better to be safe than sorry.
The previous implementation had a very high reproducibility race where
if after a track switch, the ex-active track pad completed a buffer
chain (now returning not-linked) the flow combiner had all their pads in
non-linked state, propagating it as an error and stopping the pipeline.
By resetting the flow combiner in response to RECONFIGURE events that
race is made impossible.
