Intel DXVA driver crashes sometimes (from GPU thread) if
ID3D11VideoDecoder is released while there are outstanding view objects.
To make sure the object life cycle, holds an ID3D11VideoDecoder refcount
in GstD3D11Memory object.

NVIDIA GPUs have undocumented limitation regarding minimum resolution
and it can be queried via a NVDEC API. However, since we don't want to
bring CUDA/NVDEC API into D3D11, use hardcoded values for now
until we find a nice way for capability check.

Our decoder implementation does not use downstream d3d11 pool for
decoding because of special requirement of D3D11/DXVA. So preallocation
using the downstream buffer pool will waste GPU memory in most cases.

timeapi.h is missing in our MinGW toolchain. Include mmsystem.h
header instead, which defines struct and APIs in case of our MinGW
toolchain. Note that in case of native Windows10 SDK (MSVC build),
mmsystem.h will include timeapi.h

... instead of index of DXGI adapter.
The order of IDXGIAdapter1 enumerated via IDXGIFactory1::EnumAdapters1
can be varying even there's no rebooting in case that GPU preference order
is updated by user (for example, it can be done by using NVIDIA Control Panel
in case of multi-GPU laptop system) and eGPU is another possible case.
So, for an element which requires fixed target GPU requirement,
index based device enumeration is unreliable.
