Call input resource map functions (i.e., nvEncRegisterResource,
nvEncUnregisterResource, nvEncMapInputResource, and
nvEncUnmapInputResource) only once and reuse the mapped resources,
instead of per input frame map/unmap

Adding nvautogpu{h264,h265}enc class which will accept upstream logical
GPU device object (GstCudaContext or GstD3D11Device) instead of
using pre-assigned GPU instance.
If upstream logical GPU device object is not NVENC compatible
(e.g., D3D11 device of non-NVIDIA GPU) or it's system memory,
then user specified "cuda-device-id" or "adapter-luid" property
will be used for GPU device selection.

Adding new encoder elements nvd3d11{h264,h265}enc for Direct3D11
input support and re-written nvcuda{h264,h265}enc elements.
Newly writeen elements have some differences compared with old
nv{h264,h265}enc including non-backward compatible changes.
* RGBA is not a supported input format any more:
New elements will support only YUV formats to avoid implicit conversion
done by hardware. Ideally it should be done by upstream element
in order to have more control on it. Moreover, RGBA support can cause
redundant RGBA -> YUV conversion if multiple encoders are
used for the same RGBA input
* Subsampled planar format support is dropped:
I420 and YV12 format are not supported formats for Direct3D11.
Although it's supported in CUDA mode, it's not a hardware friendly
memory layout and it will waste GPU memory since UV planes
will have large padding due to the memory layout requirement of NVENC.
* GL support is dropped: Similar to the RGBA case,
GL support in encoder would be suboptimal if GL input is
used by multiple encoders, because each encoder will copy GL memory
into CUDA memory.
Upstream cudaupload element can be used for GL <-> CUDA
interop instead.
* No more pre-allocation of encoder input surfaces. New implementation
will use input CUDA memory without copy (zero-copy) or
will copy into a NVENC's input buffer struct in case of
system memory input.
