In current tile representation, only tiles with power of two
width and height in bytes are supported. This limitation
prevents adding more complex tiles formats.
In this patch, we deprecate tile_ws and tile_hs from GstVideoFormatInfo and
replace if with an array of GstVideoTileInfo. Each plane tiles are then
described with their pixels width/height, line stride and total size.
The helper gst_video_format_info_get_tile_sizes() that depends on the
deprecated API is also being removed. This can simply be removed as it wasn't
in any stable release yet.

Since the addition of tiling format with subsampled tile size
(NV12_16L32S), getting the tile width/height shifts and tile
size have become more complex. Add a helper to extract and
scale this information for the selected plane and format.

Many of the legacy APIs, specifically in the Linux Kernel, have a
single stride for the pictures. In this context, it is common
to extrapolate the other strides based on the selected pixel
format. Such function have been copy pasted from video4linux2
plugin into wayland, kms and v4l2codecs plugins.
This patch implements a generalized from of that function and
make it available to everyone through the video library.

Unlike other simple tiled formats, the Mediatek HW use different tile size
per-plane. The tile size is scaled according to the subsampling. Effectively,
using the name 16L32S to represent linearly layout tiles of size 16x32 bytes
in the Y plane, and 16x16 in the UV plane. In order to make this specificity
discoverable, a new SUBTILES flags have been added.
