The average_period should always represent the time between two
events. The specification defines the event time as the time
between audio samples, video frame sync, video line sync, etc.
In case of one timestamp per PDU the timestamp_interval identifies
the amount of events between the timestamp of one PDU and the
timestamp of the next PDU.
As described in IEEE 1722-2016 chapter
"10.4.12 timestamp_interval field" timestamp_interval shall be
nonzero.

Upstream caps might for example be
application/x-rtp,media=audio,encoding-name={OPUS, X-GST-OPUS-DRAFT-SPITTKA-00, multiopus}
and while that is not fixed caps it is enough to match it with a media.
Only caps structures that have the correct structure name and that have
the media and encoding-name field are preserved, but if both are present
then these caps are used as "codec preferences".

Some decoding APIs support delayed output for performance reasons.
One example would be to request decoding for multiple frames and
then query for the oldest frame in the output queue.
This also increases throughput for transcoding and improves seek
performance when supported by the underlying backend.
Introduce support in the mpeg2 base class, so that backends that
support render delays can actually implement it.

Downstream might need the start code offset when decoding.
Previously this computation would be scattered in multiple sites. This
is error prone, so move it to the base class. Subclasses can access
slice->sc_offset directly without computing the address themselves
knowing that the size will also take the start code into account.

The GstV4l2CodecAllocator dispose function clears `self->decoder` but
the finalize function then tries to use it if the allocator has no been
detached yet.
Fix by detaching in the dispose function before we clear
`self->decoder`.

Standard interlace handling:
* If we have interlace-mode=interleaved and the field order, we just
set it when creating the session
* If we have interlace-mode=(interleaved|mixed) and no field order, we
set the field order on the first buffer
The encoder session does not support changing the FieldDetail after it
has started encoding frames, so we cannot support mixed streams
correctly.

Delay decoders downstream negotiation just before an output frame
needs to be allocated.
This is required, are least for H.264 and H.265 decoders, since
codec_data might trigger a new sequence before finishing upstream
negotiation, and sink pad caps need to set before setting source pad
caps, particularly to forward HDR fields. The other decoders are
changed too in order to keep the same structure among them.

Using GstBaseDec hack to access the parent_object of each element in
the element itself is a bit fragile. It would be better to keep its
own parent object as the usual global variable. It would make it
resistant to code changes.
The GstBaseDec macro to access the parent object now it's internal to
base decoder.

.. if a current direction has already been set
When `webrtcbin` has created an offer based on codec_preferences,
it might not have received caps on its sinkpads by the time a
remote description is set, in which case we want to connect the
input stream upon actual reception of the caps instead.

With mpeg4videoparse drop=false config-interval=N|-1 we might be
trying to insert a config before we have actually received one,
in which case we'll try to map a NULL buffer which will generate
lots of criticals.

gst_va_fixate_format() will iterate all othercaps' structures to find
the one with less information lost at color conversion. If a structure
with same color format is found, the iteration stops. It's like a
smart truncation. Then, this function also will choose the caps
feature.
Later this structure is used fixate its size and no further truncation
is needed.
Don't intersect at fixate, since it kills possible resizing.
