In order to simplify caps negotiations for clients and, notably, be more
compatible with va* decoders.
Crucially this allows clients to know ahead of time whether buffers will
actually be DMABufs.
Similar to GstVaBaseDec we only announce system memory caps if the peer
has ANY caps. Further more, and again like va decoders, we fail in
`decide_allocation()` if DMA_DRM caps are used without VideoMeta.
Apart from buggy peers this can happen e.g. when a peer with ANY caps
is used in combination with caps filters.

This ensures we don't create filter caps that are not supported by the
individual codec implementations, as well as that the resulting caps
have the required fields so they can be turned into a GstVideoFormat.

Add macro which converts picture frame number to suitable timestamp in
nanoseconds for use in V4L2 VB2 buffer lookup. Since multiple codecs do
the same operation and almost all got it wrong, do it in one place so it
can be fixed in one place again, if needed.

The `gst_video_decoder_negotiate_pool` function expects the
`decide_allocation` function to always provide a pool and will fail to
negotiate if the pool is missing. If we return immediately (even if we
don't need to do anything special) negotiation will fail if the
downstream element does not propose a pool.
Fix by chaining up to the default `decide_allocation` function which
adds a fallback pool if one was not already proposed.

This change allow output caps to be updated even though we stay in
streaming state. This is needed so that any upstream updated to fields
like framerate, hdr data, etc. can result in a downstream caps event
being pushed.
Previously, any of these changes was being ignored and the downstream
caps would not reflect it.
