When outputting in AVC3 stream format, the codec_data should not
contain any SPS or PPS, because they are embedded inside the stream.
In case of avc->bytestream h264parse will push the SPS and PPS from
codec_data downstream at the start of the stream, at intervals
controlled by "config-interval" and when there is a codec_data change.
In the case of avc3->bytstream h264parse detects that there is
already SPS/PPS in the stream and sets h264parse->push_codec to FALSE.
Therefore avc3->bytstream was already supported, except for the stream
type.
In the case of bystream->avc h264parse will generate codec_data caps
from the parsed SPS/PPS in the stream. However it does not remove these
SPS/PPS from the stream. bytestream->avc3 is the same as bytestream->avc
except that the codec_data must not have any SPS/PPS in it.

Amendment 2 of ISO/IEC 14496-15 (AVC file format) is defining a new
structure for fragmented MP4 called "avc3". The principal difference
between AVC1 and AVC3 is the location of the codec initialisation
data (e.g. SPS, PPS). In AVC1 this data is placed in the initial MOOV box
(moov.trak.mdia.minf.stbl.stsd.avc1) but in AVC3 this data goes in the
first sample of every fragment.

The Sequence Header Data Structure STRUCT_C for Advanced Profile
has only a one valid field which is the profile indicator. Don't
use the reserved fields for fps update like Simple/Main profile.

The Sequence Header Data Structure STRUCT_A for advanced profile
may be eight consecutive zero bytes.Don't try to override the
width and height values in this case.

Updating caps results in downstream elements potentially reconfiguring themselves
(such as decoders). If we do this in the middle of keyframes, we would result
in those elements being reconfigured and handling garbage until the next keyframe.
Instead of this only send (potentially) new codec_data when we have *both* SPS and
PPS.

The caps should always represent what the user is supposed to see.
So if there is a sequence_display_extension associated with the
stream then use the display_horizontal_size/display_vertical_size
to update the src caps (if they are less than the values provided
by sequence header).

Restore the original h264parser behaviour to report cropped dimensions
in size caps.

Migrate the code to use the new parser API based on GstMpegVideoPacket.
Also try to optimize gst_mpegv_parse_process_config() by using more of
GstMpegVideoPacket and determining the extension_start_code_identifier
prior to calling the parser function for that extension packet.

Don't send any source caps yet if we're still in
drop-buffers-until-we-get-a-sequence-header mode.
Fixes transmuxing of many MPEG-TS/PS streams into
formats which require things like width, height or
codec_data on the input caps.
Also fixes issues when using playbin with decoder
sinks that want width/height etc.

API is now in baseparse in gstreamer.
Timestamps in MPEG-TS streams are based on the last timestamp
before the start code of the picture. GstBaseParse sets the
timestamp based on the beginning of the sequence header, if
one exists before the picture. This fixes the case where the
timestamp occurs in the MPEG-TS stream between the seq header
and picture start code.

Otherwise we will intersect with the srcpad template caps and add all the caps fields
that the parser will ever set, no matter if downstream restricts this field or not.
This requires upstream to set this field on the caps to successfully negotiate.

This allows filtering out videos for hardware decoders that do not
support GMC at all or only support a limited number of sprite warping
points (usually 1).
