Some decoding APIs support delayed output for performance reasons.
One example would be to request decoding for multiple frames and
then query for the oldest frame in the output queue.
This also increases throughput for transcoding and improves seek
performance when supported by the underlying backend.
Introduce support in the mpeg2 base class, so that backends that
support render delays can actually implement it.

Downstream might need the start code offset when decoding.
Previously this computation would be scattered in multiple sites. This
is error prone, so move it to the base class. Subclasses can access
slice->sc_offset directly without computing the address themselves
knowing that the size will also take the start code into account.

Introduces a `libraries` variable that contains all libraries in a
list with the following format:
``` meson
libraries = [
[pkg_name, {
'lib': library_object
'gir': [ {full gir definition in a dict } ]
],
....
]
```
It therefore refactors the way we build the gir so that we can reuse the
same information to build them against 'gstreamer-full' in gst-build
when linking statically

The GST_VIDEO_DECODER_ERROR() should be used only for robust/error-resilient
decoding purpose. Any other error codes such as not-negotiated or flushing
should be returned without modified for upstream to be able to handle
it immediately. (for example, application might want to try other
decoder element on not-negotiated)

boolean return value is not sufficient for representing the reason
of error in most cases. For instance, any errors around new_sequence()
would mean negotiation error, not just *ERROR*.
And some subclasses will allocate buffer/memory/surface on new_picture()
but it could be failed because of expected error, likely flushing
