Interlaced MJPEG is a big hack. Most of the streams we've found are from old
AVID tools. There are two methods to detect interlaced stream: the container
offers a height bigger (or double) than the image's height in SOF. The other
is from a APP0 marker.

There may be garbage or some bits before a SOI comes in some problematic
mjpeg streams. For example, some network error may cause the EOI marker
of the previous frame lost, and when the new frame's SOI comes, we still
use the state of the last frame, which will generate errors.
For this kind of frames without EOI, if that frame already has some data
(the SOS segment is detected), we still push it as a frame with CORRUPTED
flag set. But if not, we just discard all the data before the new SOI.

It's only malformed data in APP when its length is less than 6 chars,
because it should have at least an id string. Otherwise, if the id string
is not handled, no warning is raised, only a debug message noticing it.

Now it uses the JPEG parser in libgstcodecparsers, while the whole
code is simplified by relying more in baseparser class for tag
handling.
The element now signals chroma-format and default framerate is 0/1,
which is for still-images.
