There are sometimes that the VA-API display context is not shared among the
pipeline, but it is important to know it before going to READY state (when the
pipeline is already linked).
One instance of this case is this:
gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=media ! decodebin ! vaapipostproc ! vaapisink
This patch adds a new function in gstvaapipluginutil called
gst_vaapi_create_test_display(). Its purpose is to create a disposable VA-API
display, which only will be used for verify if the VAEntrypointVideoProc is
available by the hardware. Afterwards, it should be unrefed.
If the vaapidecodebin is going to READY state, and the element still doesn't
know if VPP is available, the last resort is to create a new instance of the
VA-API display and test for it.

Refactor the main vaapi caps strings into three macros:
GST_VAAPI_MAKE_SURFACE_CAPS, GST_VAAPI_MAKE_ENC_SURFACE_CAPS and
GST_VAAPI_MAKE_GLTEXUPLOAD_CAPS.
Those are in gstvaapipluginutil.h so all the elements could use them, instead
of re-declaring them every time.
No functional changes.

The support for GStreamer 1.0 has been obsoleted in 0.5.10 release.
GStreamer 1.2 is the a minimal requirement for building the gstreamer-vaapi.
This patch removes all the pre-processor conditional code compilation guarded
for gstreamer-1.0.
Thus, all the video converters were removed too.

Currently the src caps are set immediately after the sink caps are set, but in
that moment the pipeline might not fully constructed and the video sink has
not negotiated its supported caps and features. As a consequence, in many cases
of playback, the least optimized caps feature is forced. This is partially the
responsible of bug #744039.
Also, vaapidecode doesn't attend the reconfigure events from downstream,
which is a problem too, since the video sink can be changed with different
caps features.
This patch delays the src caps, setting them until the first frame arrives to
the decoder, assuming until that very moment the whole pipeline is already
negotiated. Particularly, it checks if the src pad needs to be reconfigured,
as a consequence of a reconfiguration event from downstream.
A key part of this patch is the new GstVaapiCapsFeature
GST_VAAPI_CAPS_FEATURE_NOT_NEGOTIATED, which is returned when the src pad
doesn't have a peer yet. Also, for a better report of the caps allowed
through the src pad and its peer, this patch uses gst_pad_get_allowed_caps()
instead of gst_pad_peer_query_caps() when looking for the preferred feature.
v3: move the input_state unref to close(), since videodecoder resets at
some events such as navigation.
v4: a) the state_changed() callback replaces the input_state if the media
changed, so this case is also handled.
b) since the parameter ref_state in gst_vaapidecode_update_src_caps() is
always the input_state, the parameter were removed.
c) there were a lot of repeated code handling the input_state, so I
refactored it with the function gst_vaapi_decode_input_state_replace().

Some frameworks (EFL) expect BGRA textures for storage. However,
adding support for that broadly into GStreamer framework implies
two kinds of hacks: (i) libgstgl helpers currently do not support
BGRA textures correctly, (ii) we need to better parse downstream
suggested caps and intersect them with what the VA plugin elements
can offer to them for GL texturing.
In the current implementation, gst_video_info_set_format() would reset
the whole GstVideoInfo structure first, prior to setting video format
and size. So, coleteral information like framerate or pixel-aspect-
ratio are lost.
Provide and use a unique gst_video_info_change_format() for overcome
this issue, i.e. only have it change the format and video size, and
copy over the rest of the fields.

Allow implicit conversions to raw video formats, while still keeping
VA surfaces underneath. This allows for chaining the vaapipostproc
element to a software-only element that takes care of maps/unmaps.
e.g. xvimagesink.

Introduce new gst_caps_has_vaapi_surface() helper function to detect
whether the supplied caps has VA surfaces. With GStreamer >= 1.2, this
implies a check for memory:VASurface caps features, and format=ENCODED
for earlier versions of GStreamer.
Add gst_vaapi_video_format_new_template_caps_with_features() helper
function to add the supplied caps feature string on GStreamer >= 1.2.
Add gst_vaapi_find_preferred_caps_feature() helper function to discover
the "best" caps feature to use for the supplied pad. In practice, we
will always favor memory:VASurface first, then meta:GLTextureUploadMeta,
and finally the system memory caps.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=719372
Add new helper functions to build video template caps.
- gst_vaapi_video_format_new_template_caps():
create GstCaps with size, frame rate and PAR to full range
- gst_vaapi_video_format_new_template_caps_from_list():
try to create a "simplified" list from the supplied formats
Add new helper functions to build GValues from GstVideoFormat:
- gst_vaapi_value_set_format():
build a GValue from the supplied video format
- gst_vaapi_value_set_format_list():
build a GValue list from the supplied array of video formats
Move common VA display creation code to GstVaapiPluginBase, with the
default display type remaining "any". Also add a "display-changed"
hook so that subclasses could perform additional tasks when/if the
VA display changed, due to a new display type request for instance.
All plug-ins are updated to cope with the new internal APIs.
Add support for "mixed" interlace-mode, whereby the video frame buffer
shall be deinterlaced only if its flags mention that's actually an
interlaced frame buffer.
Add gst_caps_set_interlaced() helper function that would reset the
interlace-mode field to "progressive" for GStreamer >= 1.0, or the
interlaced field to "false" for GStreamer 0.10.
Add support for interlaced streams with GStreamer 1.0 too. Basically,
this enables vaapipostproc, though it is not auto-plugged yet. We also
make sure to reply to CAPS queries, and happily handle CAPS events.
If vaapisink is in the GStreamer pipeline, then we shall allocate a
unique GstVaapiDisplay and propagate it upstream. i.e. subsequent
queries from vaapidecode shall get a valid answer from vaapisink.
Move display types from gstvaapipluginutil.* to gstvaapidisplay.* so that
we could simplify characterization of a GstVaapiDisplay. Also rename "auto"
type to "any", and add a "display-type" attribute.
vaapisink is now built with support for multiple display types, whenever
they are enabled. The new "display" attribute is used to select a particular
renderer.
This new interface allows for upstream and downstream display sharing
that works in both static and dynamic pipelines.
