VA-API needs AC and DC quant scales for both luma and chroma, and the loop
filter level for current frame, but these values are not available outside
the private GstVp9Parser structure. And these values may change from frame
to frame, so they are picture specific.
This patch add GstVp9Segmentation structure array to GstVp9Picture to expose
it to derived classes. This approach is safer than passing the parser at
picture handling flow.
Also, this patch, in order to solve Documentation CI, mark as private the
GstVp9Picture structure.

In order to know the chroma format, besides profile, subsampling_x and
subsampling_y are needed (Spec 7.2.2 Color config semantics). These values are
in GstVp9Parser but not in GstVp9Framehdr.
Also, bit_depth is available in parser but not frame header. Evenmore, those
values are copied to picture structure later.
In case of VA-API, to configure the pipeline, it is require to know the chroma
format and depth.
It is possible to know chroma and depth through caps coming from vp9parser, but
it requires string parsing. It would be less error prone to get these values
through the parser structure at new_sequence() virtual method.

Add new video composition element which is equivalent to compositor
and glvideomixer elements. When d3d11 decoder elements are used,
d3d11compositor can do efficient graphics memory handling
(zero copying or at least copying memory on GPU memory space).

New d3d11colorconvert and d3d11scale elements will perform only
colorspace conversion and rescale, respectively. Those new elements
would be useful when only colorspace conversion or rescale is required
and the other part should be done by another elements.

Add util functions for runtime CUDA kernel source compilation
using NVRTC library. Like other nvcodec dependent libraries,
NVRTC library will be loaded via g_module_open.
Note that the NVRTC library naming is not g_module_open friendly
on Windows.
(i.e., nvrtc64_{CUDA major version}{CUDA minor version}.dll).
So users can specify the dll name using GST_NVCODEC_NVRTC_LIBNAME
environment.

Introducing CUDA buffer pool with generic CUDA memory support.
Likewise GL memory, any elements which are able to access CUDA device
memory directly can map this CUDA memory without upload/download
overhead via the "GST_MAP_CUDA" map flag.
Also usual GstMemory map/unmap is also possible with internal staging memory.
For staging, CUDA Host allocated memory is used (see CuMemAllocHost API).
The memory is allowing system access but has lower overhead
during GPU upload/download than normal system memory.

In order to support the symbol g_enum_to_string in various
project using GStreamer ( gst-validate etc.), the glib minimum
version should be 2.56.0.
Remove compat code as glib requirement
is now > 2.56
Version used by Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Move the show_frame check from sub class to vp8 decoder's base class.
Calling the sub class' output_picture() function only when the frame
is displayed and marking the other automatically as decode only.
This is done to avoid logic and code repetition in subclasses.

Fix a bug in _create_other_pool(). The old way of checking the
base->other_pool make that other_pool never be changed until the
gst_va_base_dec_stop() to stop the current decoding context.
But in some stream, the resolution may change during the decoding
process, and we need to re-negotiate the buffer pool. Then, the
old other_pool can not be clean correctly and the new correct one
can not be created.

The current bufferpool wastes all pre-allocate buffers when the
buffer pool is actived.
The pool->priv->size is 0 for va buffer pool. And every time, the
reset_buffer() will clean all mem and make the buffer size 0, that
can cache the gst_buffer in the buffer pool.
But when the buffer pool is activing, the default_start() just
allocate the buffer and release_buffer() immediately, all the pre
allocated buffers and surfaces are destroyed because of
gst_buffer_get_size (buffer) != pool->priv->size.
We need to use release_buffer() to do the clean job at the pool
start time.
