vtenc has an async output queue, which we only iterate over after another frame is enqueued.
At the very least it means we're always a frame behind the fastest possible output.
In edge cases it's also bug-prone - for example if we only have 1 frame, the downstream caps negotiation
will never happen.
This commit adds a separate task running on the source pad, which only iterates over the output queue
and pushes frames out as soon as they're put there. The queue length is limited to ensure we don't encode
too far ahead compared to what downstream can consume. Any failures that occur when pushing data downstream
will be signalled in self->downstream_ret so that other parts of code can act accordingly.

Adding new subtitle overlay element. It's a bin which is wrapping
two internal elements dwritesubtitlemux and dwritetextoverlay.
* dwritesubtitlemux: A new internal element to aggregate subtitle
buffers and to attach the aggregated subtitle buffers on
video buffer as meta.
* dwritetextoverlay: Extracts/renders the subtitle meta and
discard the meta after rendering.

The current way of using gst_video_info_set_format() will change all
fields of the GstVideoInfo. We only need to change its format, stride
and offset fields.
In order to keep the consistency with th common drm API, we rename the
gst_va_video_info_from_dma_info() into gst_va_dma_drm_info_to_video_info().

The current way only selects the best video format from the first
structure of the caps. The caps like:
video/x-raw(memory:VAMemory),drm-format=(string)NV12; \
video/x-raw(memory:VAMemory),format=(string){ NV12, Y210 }
Will just choose NV12 as the result, even the bitstream is 10 bits.

The current way of using parent's copy_metadata() virtual function will
selectively filter out some meta such as crop meta. That virtual function
should be used when copying input buffer's meta data into output buffer,
not suitable when importing the input buffer.

When the input buffer has crop meta, and we need to do copy, we
should consider the uncropped video size and copy the full size
of video memory.
The video meta in this case should contain the full uncropped
resolution info. We can use it to create full size va buffers.

Now all codec baseclasses can inform subclasses of correct max DPB size,
and exception handling (e.g., emergency bumping in h.264) has been
improved as well. Smaller number of additional DPB frame allocation
seems to be safe.

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.

Adding DirectWrite text rendering elements
* dwriteclockoverlay: Equivalent to clockoverlay
* dwritetimeoverlay: Equivalent to timeoverlay
* dwritetextoverlay: Similar to textoverlay but subtitle is not
supported
Newly added elements support system memory and d3d11 memory

The VA has its internal video format mapping(because different drivers may
have different interpretation for the same format), so we should convert the
info in GstVideoInfoDmaDrm into the according video info based on that mapping.

Decoder bounded CUDA memory is allocated by driver and the pool size
is fixed. Since we don't know how many buffers would be held by
downstream non-CUDA element, we should download such CUDA memory
and release it back to decoder.
