Initially the case "only codec_data is different" was addressed in
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705333 in order for
unusual bitstreams to be handled. That's the case where sps and pps
are placed in bitstream. When sps/pps are signalled only via caps
by upstream, however, the updated codec_data is mandatory for decoder
and therefore we shouldn't ignore them.
Expose SEI data in the H.264 bitstream parser API and
extract closed captions and other things that are not
specified in the H.264 spec itself in the videoparser.

Inserts AU delimeter by default if missing au delimeter from upstream.
This should be done only in case of byte-stream format.
Note that:
We have to compensate for the new bytes added for the AU, otherwise
insertion of PPS/SPS will use wrong offsets and overwrite wrong data.
Also mark the AU delimiter blob const, and use frame->out_buffer for
storing the output to keep baseparse assumptions valid.

If the input alignment claims AU alignment, each received
buffer should contain a complete video frame, so never hold over parts
of buffers for later processing. Also reduces latency, as packets
are parsed/converted and output immediately instead of 1 buffer
later.
Fixes a problem where an (arguably disallowed) padding byte on the
end of a buffer is detected as an extra byte in the following
start code, and messes up the timestamping that should apply to
that start code.
Wait until at least one keyframe has been parsed before
deciding to switch to passthrough mode, in case the
stream contains SEI messages that supplement the output
caps - for example by providing stereoscopic information
Improve parser state tracking by introducing new flags reflecting
it: "got-sps", "got-pps" and "got-slice". This is an addition for
robustness purposes.
Older have_sps and have_pps variables are kept because they have
a different meaning. i.e. they are used for deciding on when to
submit updated caps or not, and rather mean "have new SPS/PPS to
be submitted?"

As we can now rely upon being passed upstream delineated data in
::handle_frame(), the latter can also parse avc formatted data
without having to intercept baseparse's chain function.
While this evidently requires 2 separate parsing paths, each can
be streamlined accordingly.
... as baseparse then provides whole chunks of data (as it should) at once
to be parsed, and so the assumptions used to optimize are no longer valid.
Fixes#667560.
Functionally equivalent to (legacy)h264parse and re-uses the latter's low
level NAL parsing, but otherwise based on GstBaseParse, and replacing
some property configuration with caps negotiation.
