The payloader didn't copy anything so far, the depayloader copied every
possible meta. Let's make it consistent and just copy all metas without
tags or with only the video tag.

h264parse does the same, let's keep the behaviour consistent. As we now
include the codec_data inside the stream too here, this causes less caps
renegotiation.
The spec says:
When a picture parameter set NAL unit with a particular value of
pic_parameter_set_id is received, its content replaces the content of the
previous picture parameter set NAL unit, in decoding order, with the same
value of pic_parameter_set_id (when a previous picture parameter set NAL unit
with the same value of pic_parameter_set_id was present in the bitstream).
h264parse does the same and this fixes decoding of some streams with 32 SPS
(or 256 PPS). It is allowed to have SPS ID 0 to 31 (or PPS ID 0 to 255), but
the field in the codec_data for the number of SPS or PPS is only 5 (or 8) bit.
As such, 32 SPS (or 256 PPS) are interpreted as 0 everywhere.
This looks like a mistake in the part of the spec about the codec_data.
For more optimised RTP packet handling: means we don't
need to map the input buffer again but can just re-use
the mapping the base class has already done.

The marker bit isn't mandatory and we had in place code to guess AU
boundaries by detecting a new picture start. This guessing code
didn't work with interlaced content that has proper marker bits
to indicate the AU boundaries. It was leaking the first field buffer
and producing a corrupted output.

encoding name is required in the caps and is a better fit for autoplugging than
the pt value. Hardware manufacturers have a bad habit of skimming through RFCs
and in this case; use unassigned numbers for encoders instead of dynamic
numbers.
In essence, this patch will add support for a lot of Bosch hardware encoders
without breaking autoplugging.

These will be picked automatically based on downstream caps now, so
if you want the depayloader to output a specific format, make sure
the element downstream advertises that preference or use a capsfilter
after the depayloader to force it.
Some h264 payloaders are unfortunately buggy and don't correctly set the
E bit in FU-A NAL when they have ended. Work around this by assuming
such a fragmentation unit has ended when there was no packet loss and a
new NAL is started
... which is particularly needed when merging NAL units, where not resetting
would lead to output of an older (pre-flush) AU (with unintended timestamp).
... thereby (partially) deprecating properties currently controlling whether
or not byte-stream output or NAL/AU alignment (though properties still determine
fallback if nothing specified in caps).
Fixes#606662.
