If buffers were released from the pool while
gst_omx_video_enc_handle_frame() was waiting for new buffers,
gst_omx_port_acquire_buffer() was never awaken as the buffers weren't
released through OMX's messaging system.
GQueue isn't thread safe so also protect it with the lock mutex.
Propose pool upstream so input buffers can be allocated by the port and
exported as dmabuf.
The actual OMX buffers are allocated when the pool is activated, so we
don't end up doing useless allocations if the pool isn't used.

When using a input buffer pool, the buffer may be released to the pool when
gst_omx_buffer_unmap() is called. We need to have buf->used unset at
this point as the pool may use it to check the status of the pool.
{Empty,Fill}BufferDone is called from OMX internal threads while
messages are handled from gst elements' thread. Best to do all this
when handling the message so we don't mess with OMX threads and keep
the original thread/logic split.

When flusing we should wait for OMX to send the flush command complete event
AND all ports being released.
We were stopping as soon as one of those condition was met.
Fix a race between FillThisBufferDone/EmptyBufferDone and the flush
EventCmdComplete messages. The OMX implementation is supposed to release
its buffers before posting the EventCmdComplete event but the ordering
isn't guaranteed as the FillThisBufferDone/EmptyBufferDone and
EventHandler callbacks can be called from different threads (cf 2.7
'Thread Safety' in the spec).
Only wait for buffers currently used by OMX as some buffers may not be
in the pending queue because they are held downstream.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=789475
Increase the number of output buffers by the number of buffers requested
downstream.
Prevent buffers starvation if downstream is going to use dynamic buffer
mode on its input.

The OMX specs states that the nBufferCountActual of a port has to default
to its nBufferCountMin. If we don't change nBufferCountActual we purely rely
on this default. But in some cases, OMX may change nBufferCountMin before we
allocate buffers. Like for example when configuring the input ports with the
actual format, it may decrease the number of minimal buffers required.
This method checks this and update nBufferCountActual if needed so we'll use
less buffers than the worst case in such scenarios.
SetParameter() needs to be called when the port is either disabled or
the component in the Loaded state.
Don't do this for the decoder output as
gst_omx_video_dec_allocate_output_buffers() already check
nBufferCountMin when computing the number of output buffers.
On some platform, like rpi, the default nBufferCountActual is much
higher than nBufferCountMin so only enable this using a specific gst-omx
hack.

gst_omx_component_get_state() used to early return if there was no
pending state change. So if the component raised an error it wasn't
considered in the invalid state until the next requested state change.
Fix this by checking first if we received an error.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=795874
This hack tries to pass as much information as possible from caps to the
decoder before it receives any buffer. These information can be used by
the OMX decoder to, for example, pre-allocate its internal buffers
before starting to decode and so reduce its initial latency.
This mechanism is currently supported by the zynqultrascaleplus decoder.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792040
I find it confusing when debugging that OMX calls returning an error
where not logged as GST_LEVEL_ERROR making them harder to spot.
Fix this by introducing simple log macros checking the return value of
the OMX call and logging failures as errors.

The Zynq UltraScale+ encoder implements a custom OMX extension to
directly import dmabuf saving the need of mapping input buffers.
This can be use with either 'v4l2src io-mode=dmabuf' or an OMX video
decoder upstream.

OMX 1.2.0 introduced a third way to manage buffers by allowing
components to only allocate buffers header during their initialization
and change their pBuffer pointer at runtime.
This new feature can save us a copy between GStreamer and OMX for each
input buffer.
This patch adds API to allocate and use such buffers.

As stated in the existing comment, when flusing we should wait for OMX
to send the flush command complete event AND all ports being released.

No semantic change so far, I just made the 'while' end condition easier
to understand as a first step before changing it.
- move error/time out checks inside the loop to make it clearer on what
we are actually waiting for.
- group port->buffers checks together with parenthesis as they are part
of the same conceptual check: waiting for all buffers to be released.

The OMX spec doesn't support HEVC but the OMX stack of the
zynqultrascaleplus adds it as a custom extension.
It uses the same API as the one of Android's OMX stack.
I used the H264 encoder code as a template.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785434
The spec states that the buffer passed to OMX_FillThisBuffer() needs to be
empty. Some implementation may check it actually is by checking its
nFilledLen field, so best to reset it as well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=785623
This information can be useful to zynqultrascaleplus decoders. They may
use this information to reduce startup latency by configuring itself
before receiving the first frames.
We also have a custom OMX extension allowing the decoder to report the
latency. The profile/level information helps it reporting a more
accurate latency earlier.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783114
It is safe to ignore it always. Tizonia notifies this error to pass
some khronos conformance tests. Problem is that gst-omx saves this
error in comp->last_error and then gst_omx_port_set_enabled early
error out which fails the pipeline.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782800
Previously the omx plugin was blacklisted if GST_OMX_CONFIG_DIR
points to an invalid path or if the gstomx.conf contains 0 valid
component.
Problem is that once the plugin is blacklisted, a rescan is not
triggered upon changes of the env var or the gstomx.conf file
despite being setup with gst_plugin_add_dependency.
This also makes it more consistent with other plugins that auto
generate features. For example gst-{ffmeg,libav}, gstreamer-vaapi,
v4l2 video dec.
To clarify the diff, the plugin_init func will return TRUE even if
g_key_file_get_groups returns 0 element and even if
g_key_file_load_from_dirs fails.
