The entrypoint is set when the encoder helper is constructed,
nonetheless it was also passed as parameter when opening. That's
buggy.
In order to simplify the code, the entrypoint at construction is
honored.
But gst_va_encoder_has_profile_and_entrypoint() now doesn't rely in
the internal list of profiles since it only contains those that
belongs to codec and entrypoint, thus it queries directly the VA
driver.

Add Windows Graphics Capture (WGC) API based screen capture mode.

* Explicitly requested by user (capture-api property)
* To capture specific window
* When DXGI desktop duplication API does not work on hybrid graphics systems
(e.g., multi-gpu laptop)

Note that this feature requires Windows 10 build 20348

and any process loopback related properties will not be exposed
if OS does not support it.
Example launch lines:
* wasapi2src loopback-mode=include-process-tree loopback-target-pid=<PID>
Captures audio generated by an application (specified by PID)
and its child process
* wasapi2src loopback-mode=exclude-process-tree loopback-target-pid=<PID>
Captures desktop audio excluding PID and its child process

Currently if the user is not able to access the devices under /dev/media*,
either due to no media devices present on the system or simply no permission
to access the device, v4l2codecs initialises with no features or debug messages.
Since calling `GST_DEBUG="v4l2*:7" gst-inspect-1.0 v4l2codecs` is a typical way
to diagnose why element(s) failed to enumerate, we should be more verbose here
when the user is not able to access any /dev/media* device. So print a simple
debug message in this case to aid debugging.

The AV1 support multi spatial layers within one TU with different
resolutions, and only the highest spatial layer need to be output.
For example, there are two spatial layer, base level is 800x600
and higher level is 1920x1080. We need to decode both because the
higher level needs base layer as reference, but we only need to output
1920x1080 frames here.
The current manner always renegotiates the caps once we detect the
current picture resolution changes, so we renegotiate again and
again between different layers. That's a big waste and has very
low performance. We now only do the renegotiation for the highest
output layer. For other non output layers, we just keep a internal
buffer pool which is big enough to handle the surface allocation.

d3d11screencapture can miss a cursor shape to draw or draw an outdated cursor shape.
- AcquireNextFrame only provides cursor shape when there is one update
- current d3d11screencapture skips cursor shape when mouse is not drawn
So, if a gstreamer application uses d3d11screencapture with cursor initially not drawn
"show-cursor"=false and then switches this property to true, the cursor will not be
actually drawn until AcquireNextFrame provides a new cursor shape.
This commit makes d3d11screencapture always update the cursor shape information, even

and the object can be shared by multiple src elements,

When we fixup src caps, the current way of handling the HDR fields is not
correct.
1. We trim the HDR fields only when the input caps is not a subset of the
fixup src caps. But in fact, the input caps with HDR fields such as the
"mastering-display-info" can possibly be the subset of the fixup src caps,
if they have all same other fields.
2. We always copy the colorimetry from input caps to src caps if it is
absent. But when hdr-tone-mapping is enabled, the HDR->SDR conversion makes
the colorimetry change. We should use downstream's setting, or just use the
default colorimetry of SDR.
We changes to:
1. If hdr-tone-mapping is enabled, we trim all HDR fields and add a correct
colorimetry.
2. Copy colorimetry from input if it is still absent.
3. Consider the subset replacement.

Adding new encoder elements nvd3d11{h264,h265}enc for Direct3D11
input support and re-written nvcuda{h264,h265}enc elements.
Newly writeen elements have some differences compared with old
nv{h264,h265}enc including non-backward compatible changes.
* RGBA is not a supported input format any more:
New elements will support only YUV formats to avoid implicit conversion
done by hardware. Ideally it should be done by upstream element
in order to have more control on it. Moreover, RGBA support can cause
redundant RGBA -> YUV conversion if multiple encoders are
used for the same RGBA input
* Subsampled planar format support is dropped:
I420 and YV12 format are not supported formats for Direct3D11.
Although it's supported in CUDA mode, it's not a hardware friendly
memory layout and it will waste GPU memory since UV planes
will have large padding due to the memory layout requirement of NVENC.
* GL support is dropped: Similar to the RGBA case,
GL support in encoder would be suboptimal if GL input is
used by multiple encoders, because each encoder will copy GL memory
into CUDA memory.
Upstream cudaupload element can be used for GL <-> CUDA
interop instead.
* No more pre-allocation of encoder input surfaces. New implementation
will use input CUDA memory without copy (zero-copy) or
will copy into a NVENC's input buffer struct in case of
system memory input.
