ad019a1d01 va: decoder: warn if decode fails on a surface
Instead of logging error if a step fails, it logs a warning message
reducing the noise and obeying the rule for errors since the program
doesn't end

d3ef3d562a va: allocator: get a surface format from a image format
For the allocator to create surfaces with the correct chroma an
fourcc, it should use a surface format, not necessarily the negotiated
format.

Instead of the previous arbitrary extra formats list, the decoder
extracts the valid pixel formats from the given VA config, and pass
that list to the allocator which stores it (full transfer).

Then, when the allocator allocates a new surface, it looks for a
surface color format chroma-compatible with the negotiated image color
format.

79d11c2022 va: VA-API H.264 decoder and infrastructure
New plugin with an element for H.264 decoding with VA-API. This novel
approach, different from gstreamer-vaapi, uses gstcodecs library for
state handling.

The code is expected to looks cleaner because it uses VA-API without
further layers or wrappers.

* It uses the first supported DRM device as default VA display (other
  displays will be supported through user's GstContext)
* Requires libva >= 1.6
* No multiview/stereo profiles neither interlaced streams because
  gstcodecs doesn't handle them yet
* It is incompatible with gstreamer-vaapi
* Even if memory:VAMemory is exposed, it is not handled yet by any
  other element
* Caps templates are generated dynamically querying VAAPI, but YV12
  and I420 are added for system memory caps because they seem to be
  supported for all the drivers when downloading frames onto main
  memory, as they are used by xvimagesink and others, avoiding color
  conversion.
* Surfaces aren't bounded to context, so they can grow beyond the DBP
  size, allowing smooth reverse playback.
* There isn't yet error handling and recovery.
* 10-bit H.264 streams aren't supported by libva.
