This adds a property to select the maximum number of threads to use for
conversion and scaling. During processing, each plane is split into
an equal number of consecutive lines that are then processed by each
thread.
During tests, this gave up to 1.8x speedup with 2 threads and up to 3.2x
speedup with 4 threads when converting e.g. 1080p to 4k in v210.

GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_ALPHA_MODE, GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_CHROMA_MODE,
GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_MATRIX_MODE, GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_GAMMA_MODE and
GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_PRIMARIES_MODE were G_TYPE_STRING with only a few valid
options. Changed those to real enums.

Add support for alpha. Make it possible to copy, set and multiply the
alpha value of a frame during conversion.
Set the border alpha to 0xff by default.
Go over some of the fastpaths and add alpha handling.
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745006
Add fastpaths for all planar conversion and scaling.
Improve gray and alpha handling.
Add option to specify the chroma resampler method and set to linear as
default.
Add an option to disable chroma resampling.
Improve the matrix option values so that you can choose to use the input
or output matrix or disable conversion.
Keep only 1 structure with all matrix information.
Add structure to hold gamma information.
Add more options to control gamma, primaries and color matrix handling.
Add functions to compute transformations to and from XYZ and use this
to convert between primaries.
Merge gamma into the convert to and from RGB stage.
Fix border val.
Simplify the fastpath table, remove unused fields, add some more checks.
Add support for cropping the source and placing the converted image
into a rectangle in the destination frame.
Add an option to add a border and border color.
