From the spec (chapter 34, v1.3.283):
````
UNORM: the components are unsigned normalized values in the range [0, 1]
SRGB: the R, G and B components are unsigned normalized value that represent
values using sRGB nonlinear encoding, while the A component (if one
exists) is a regular unsigned normalized value
```
The difference is the storage encoding, the first one is aimed for image
transfers, while the second is for shaders, mostly in the swapchain stage in the
pipeline, and it's done automatically if needed [1].
As far as I have checked, other frameworks (FFmpeg, GTK+), when import or export
images from/to Vulkan, use exclusively UNORM formats, while SRGB formats are
ignored.
My conclusion is that Vulkan formats are related on how bits are stored in
memory rather their transfer functions (colorimetry).
This patch does two interrelated changes:
1. It swaps certain color format maps to try first, in both
gst_vulkan_format_from_video_info() and gst_vulkan_format_from_video_info_2(),
the UNORM formats, when comparing its usage, and later check for SRGB.
2. It removes the code that check for colorimetry in
gst_vulkan_format_from_video_info_2(), since it not storage related.

Since we don't want to expose video decoding API outside of GStreamer, the
header is removed from installation and both source files are renamed as
-private.
The header must remain in gst-libs because is referred by GstVulkanQueue,
which's the decoder factory.

Adding new property in order to notify users of device removed status.
Once device removed status is detected, application should release
all ID3D12Device objects corresponding to the adapter, including
GstD3D12Device object. Otherwise D3D12CreateDevice() call for the
adapter will fail.

It seems that when D3D11CreateDevice collides in time
with other D3D11 calls, in particular the proccess of
creating a shader, it can corrupt the memory in the driver.
D3D11 spec doesn't seem to require any thread safety from
D3D11CreateDevice. Following MSDN, it is supposed to be called
in the beginning of the proccess, while GStreamer calls it with each
new pipeline.
Such crashes in the driver were frequently reproducing on the
Intel UHD 630 machine.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6686>
We suspect that it's not thread safe to just create and
destroy the device from any thread, particularly because
of D3D11CreateDevice, that is not documented as thread-safe.
While D3D11CreateDevice is usually protected from outside
by the gst_d3d11_ensure_element_data, it still can cross
with the Release() method of another device.

The pool currently defaults to performing a layout transition to
VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_TRANSFER_DST_OPTIMAL, with some special exceptions for
video usages. This may not be a legal transition depending on the usage.
Provide an API to explicitly control the initial image layout.

- GstAnalyticRelationMeta is a base class for analytics
meta. It's able to store analytics results (GstAnalyticRelatableMtd)
and describe the relation between each analysis results.
- GstAnalysisRelationMeta also contain an algorithm able to explore
analysis results relation using a bfs.
- Relation(edge) between analysis results (vertice) are stored in an adjacency-matrix
that allow to quickly identify if two analysis results are related and by
which relation they related. It also work for indirect relation
and can provide the path of analysis results by which two
analysis results are related.
- One allocation per buffer to store analysis results. Here we rely on
the application to guess how much space will be required to store all
analysis results. This is something that could be improved
significantly but it's a starting point.
- Define common analysis results, classification, object-detection,
tracking that are subclass of GstAnalyticRelatableMtd. The also
provide exemple of how to extend GstAnalyticRelatableMtd to have them
benefit for the mechanim to express relation with other analysis
results.

There's no reason to release GstMemory manually at all.
If we do release GstMemory, corresponding GstBuffer will be
discarded by GstBufferPool baseclass because the size is changed
to zero.
Actual cause of heavy CPU usage in case of fixed-size pool
(i.e., decoder output buffer pool) and if we remove GstMemory from
GstBuffer is that GstBufferPool baseclass is doing busy wait in acquire_buffer()
for some reason. That needs to be investigated though, discarding
and re-alloc every GstBuffer is not ideal already.

The Vulkan spec states: image must have been created with a usage value
containing at least one of the usages defined in the valid image usage list for
image views
This patch adds VK_IMAGE_USAGE_SAMPLED_BIT to the usage bits in test.

H.265 NAL always have 2 bytes of headers. Unlike the H.264 parser, this parser
will simply return that there is NO_NAL if some of these bytes are missing.
This is then properly special cased by parsers and decoders. Add a test to
ensure we don't break this in the future.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/3234>
The appropriate return value for incomplete NAL header should be
GST_H264_PARSER_NO_NAL_END. This tells the parser element to
gather more data. Previously, it would assume the NAL is corrupted
and would drop the data, potentially causing stream corruption.
