When a DPB flush is required, e.g. at a natural and of stream or issued
explicitly through an IDR, try to detect any frame left in the DPB that
is interlaced but does not contain two decoded fields. In that case, mark
the picture as having a single field only.
This avoids a hang while decoding tv_cut.mkv.
Simplify the dpb_output() function to exclusively rely on the frame store
buffer to output, since this is now always provided. Besides, also fix
cases where split fields would not be displayed.
This is a regression from f48b1e0.
Cope with latest changes from codecparsers/h264. It is now required
to explicitly clear the GstH264PPS structure as it could contain
additional allocations (slice_group_ids).

Add new GstVaapiSurfaceProxy flag FFB, which means "first frame in
bundle", and really expresses the first view component of a multi
view coded frame. e.g. in H.264 MVC, the surface proxy has flag FFB
set if VOIdx = 0.
Likewise, new API is exposed to retrieve the associated "view-id".
Allow decoders to set the "one-field" attribute when the decoded frame
genuinely has a single field, or if the second field was mis-decoded but
we still want to display the first field.
Make sure to output the decoded picture, and push the associated
GstVideoCodecFrame, only once. The frame fully represents what needs
to be output, included for interlaced streams. Otherwise, the base
GstVideoDecoder class would release the frame twice.
Anyway, the general process is to output decoded frames only when
they are complete. By complete, we mean a full frame was decoded or
both fields of a frame were decoded.
Slightly optimize decoding process by submitting the current VA surface
for decoding earlier to the hardware, and perform the reference picture
marking process and DPB update process afterwards.
This is a minor optimization to let the video decode engine kick in work
earlier, thus improving parallel resources utilization.
Fix decoding of interlaced streams where a first field (e.g. B-slice)
was immediately output and the current decoded field is to be paired
with that former frame, which is no longer in DPB.

Optimize the process to detect new pictures or start of new access
units by checking if the previous NAL unit was the end of a picture,
or the end of the previous access unit.
Add support for MVC streams with multiple SPS and subset SPS headers
emitted regularly, e.g. at around every I-frame. Track the maximum
number of views in ensure_context() and really reset the DPB size to
the expected value, always. i.e. even if it decreased. dpb_reset()
only cares of ensuring the DPB allocation.
Fix the compaction process when the DPB is cleared for a specific
view, i.e. fix the process of filling in the holes resulting from
removing frame buffers matching the current picture.
It is not necessary to periodically send SPS or subset SPS headers.
This is up to the upper layer (e.g. transport layer) to decide on
if/how to periodically submit those. For now, only generate new SPS
or subset SPS headers when the codec config changed.
Note: the upper layer could readily determine the config headers
(SPS/PPS) through the gst_vaapi_encoder_h264_get_codec_data() function.

Report sample aspect ratio (SAR) as present, and make it match what
we have obtained from the user as pixel-aspect-ratio (PAR). i.e. the
VUI parameter aspect_ratio_info_present_flag now defaults to TRUE.
Set the value of num_anchor_refs_l0, num_anchor_refs_l1, num_non_anchor_refs_l0,
and num_non_anchor_refs_l1 to zero since the inter-view prediction is not yet
supported.
When the seq_parameter_set_data() syntax structure is present in a subset
sequence parameter set and vui_parameters_present_flag is equal to 1, then
timing_info_present_flag shall be equal to 0 (H.7.4.2.1.1).
The gst_h264_parse_collect_nal() function is a misnomer. In reality,
this function is used to determine access unit boundaries, i.e. that
is the key function for alignment=au output format generation.
Always use a GstAdapter when collecting access units (alignment="au")
in either byte-stream or avcC format. This is required to properly
preserve config headers like SPS and PPS when invalid or broken NAL
units are subsequently parsed.
More precisely, this fixes scenario like:
<SPS> <PPS> <invalid-NAL> <slice>
where we used to reset the output frame buffer when an invalid or
broken NAL is parsed, i.e. SPS and PPS NAL units were lost, thus
preventing the next slice unit to be decoded, should this also
represent any valid data.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732203
Carefully track cases when skipping broken or invalid NAL units is
necessary. In particular, always allow NAL units to be processed
and let that gst_h264_parse_process_nal() function decide on whether
the current NAL needs to be dropped or not.
This fixes parsing of streams with SEI NAL buffering_period() message
inserted between SPS and PPS, or SPS-Ext NAL following a traditional
SPS NAL unit, among other cases too.
Practical examples from the H.264 AVC conformance suite include
alphaconformanceG, CVSE2_Sony_B, CVSE3_Sony_H, CVSEFDFT3_Sony_E
when parsing in stream-format=byte-stream,alignment=au mode.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732203
Improve parser state tracking by introducing new flags reflecting
it: "got-sps", "got-pps" and "got-slice". This is an addition for
robustness purposes.
Older have_sps and have_pps variables are kept because they have
a different meaning. i.e. they are used for deciding on when to
submit updated caps or not, and rather mean "have new SPS/PPS to
be submitted?"
Always default to stream-format=byte-stream,alignment=nalu if avcC
format was not detected. This is the natural stream format specified
in the standard (Annex.B): a series of NAL units prefixed with the
usual start code.

Use gst_h264_parser_identify_nalu_unchecked() to identify the next
NAL unit. We don't want to parse the full NAL unit, but only the
header bytes and possibly the first RBSP byte for identifying the
first_mb_in_slice syntax element.
Also fix check for failure when returning from that function. The
only success condition for that is GST_H264_PARSER_OK, so use it.

Submit Prefix NAL headers (nal_unit_type = 14) before every packed
slice header (nal_unit_type = 1 or 5) only for the base view. In non
base views, a Coded Slice Extension NAL header (nal_unit_type = 20)
is required, with an appropriate nal_unit_header_mvc_extension() in
the NAL header bytes.

Fix search for a picture in the DPB that has a lower POC value than
the current picture. The dpb_find_lowest_poc() function will return
a picture with the lowest POC in DPB and that is marked as "needed
for output", but an additional check against the actual POC value
of the current picture is needed.
This is a regression from 1c46990.

Fix dpb_clear() to clear previous frame buffers only if they actually
exist to begin with. If the decoder bailed out early, e.g. when it
does not support a specific profile, that array of previous frames
might not be allocated beforehand.
We can avoid scanning for start codes again if the bitstream is fed
in NALU chunks. Currently, we always scan for start codes, and keep
track of remaining bits in a GstAdapter, even if, in practice, we
are likely receiving one GstBuffer per NAL unit. i.e. h264parse with
"nal" alignment.

The `vaapipostproc' element could never determine if the H.264 stream
was interlaced, and thus always assumed it to be progressive. Fix the
H.264 decoder to report interlace-mode accordingly, thus allowing the
vaapipostproc element to automatically enable deinterlacing.
Avoid reaching an assert if dynamic framerates (0/1) are used. One
way to solve this problem is to just stick field_duration to zero.
However, this means that, in presence of interlaced streams, the
very first field will never be displayed if precise presentation
timestamps are honoured.

deinterlace-mode didn't behave in the way you'd expect if you have
past experience of the deinterlace element. There were two bugs:
1. "auto" mode wouldn't deinterlace "interleaved" buffers, only "mixed".
2. "force" mode wouldn't deinterlace "mixed" buffers flagged as progressive.
Fix these up, and add assertions and error messages to detect cases that
aren't handled.

Force early initializatin of the GstVaapiDisplay so that to make sure
that the sink element display object is presented first to upstream
elements, as it will be correctly featuring the requested display type
by the user.
Otherwise, we might end up in situations where a VA/X11 display is
initialized in vaapidecode, then we try VA/DRM display in vaapisink
(as requested by the "display" property), but this would cause a failure
because we cannot acquire a DRM display that was previously acquired
through another backend (e.g. VA/X11).
When a new display is settled through GstElement::set_context() (>= 1.2),
or GstVideoContext::set_context() (<= 1.0), then we shall also update the
associated display type.
