macOS features hidden devices. These are devices that will
not be shown in the macOS UIs and that cannot be retrieved
without having the specific UID of the hidden device. There
are cases when you might want to have a hidden device, for example
when having a virtual speaker that forwards the data to a virtual
hidden input device from which you can then grab the audio.
The blackhole project supports these hidden devices and
this patch provides a way that if the device id is a hidden
device it will use it instead of check the hardware list of devices
to understand if the device is valid.

get_colorspace() checks input caps transfer when mapping V4L2_XFER_FUNC_709
back to V4L2_COLORSPACE_BT2020 and GST_VIDEO_TRANSFER_BT2020_12. After
receiving source change event, decoder will G_FMT and S_FMT again. So need
to reset transfer when acquiring format to avoid using the old transfer.

The pool process function may poll and get the resolution-change event
whenever it is not possible to share our buffers. This typically happen
when downstream does not support GstVideoMeta.
Not handling this would cause the decoder thread to exit silently and the
pipeline to stall.

Output may attemp to set the width and height to zero values if
caps has no such information, which will cause capture get invalid
dimensions. Then decoder reports negotiation failure.
So need to set default resolution if caps has no such information.
Real values can be set again until source change event is signaled.

Hantro H1 and Rockchip VEPU2 drivers will pad the width/height to a
multiple of 16. In order to obtain the right JPEG size, the image needs
to be cropped using the S_SELECTION API. This support is added as best
effort since older drivers may emulate this by looking at the capture
queue width/height.

GLib guarantees libintl is always present, using proxy-libintl as
last resort. There is no need to mock gettex API any more.
This fix static build on Windows because G_INTL_STATIC_COMPILATION must
be defined before including libintl.h, and glib does it for us as part
as including glib.h.

Add properties to control input cropping in the V4L2 device.
The input cropping is applied before composing the result to the
capture buffer. By default the capture size will be set to the same
size as the crop region, but it can be scaled to a different output
frame size if supported by the V4L2 device.
If scaling is not supported, the cropped image will
be composed as is into the top-left corner of the capture buffer.

Get the current crop bounding region from the V4L2 device so
that it can be provided to applications and used to validate
crop settings. Also make the default crop region available so
that it can be used to reset the crop when appropriate.
Uses the selection API when available with fallback to the crop
API for older kernels.

The gst_v4l2_object_set_crop() is used for removing buffer
alignment padding. Give it a name that better reflects
that usage. This helps to distinguish from cropping of the
input image (e.g. cropping at the image sensor on a captre
device), which can be unrelated to the memory buffer padding,
especially if scaling is involved.

There is a chance that pool->buffers[index] sets BUFFER_STATE_QUEUED, but
it has not been queued yet which makes pool->buffers[index] still NULL.
At this time, if pool_streamff release all buffers with BUFFER_STATE_QUEUED
state regardless of whether the buffer is NULL or not, it will cause segfault.
To fix this, also check buffer when streamoff release buffer.

When the size of V4L2 capture or output is changes with VIDIOC_S_FMT,
the device is only required to update the compisition window to fit
inside the new frame size. This can result in captured data only being
updated on a portion of the frame after a resize.
Update the composition window to the default value determined by the
V4L2 device driver whenever the format is changed to make sure that
all image data is composed to its full size.

The dynamic resolution changes when
the sequence starts when the decoder detects a coded frame with one or
more of the following parameters different from those previously
established (and reflected by corresponding queries):
1.coded resolution (OUTPUT width and height),
2.visible resolution (selection rectangles),
3.the minimum number of buffers needed for decoding,
4.bit-depth of the bitstream has been changed.
Although gstreamer parser has parsed the stream resolution.
but there are some case that we need to handle resolution change event.
1. bit-depth is different from the negotiated format.
2. the capture buffer count can meet the demand
3. there are some hardware limitations that the decoded resolution may
be larger than the display size. For example, the stream size is
1920x1080, but some vpu may decode it to 1920x1088.

v4l2videodec do some refactoring so that it can support
dynamic resolution change event.
1.wrap the setup process of capture as a function,
as decoder need setup the capture again when
dynamic resolution change event is received.
2.move the function "remove_padding"

osxaudiodeviceprovider now probes devices more than once to determine
if the device can function as both an input AND and output device.
Previously, if the device provider detected that a device had any output
capabilities, it was treated solely as an Audio/Sink. This causes issues
that have both input and output capabilities (for example, USB interfaces
for professional audio have both input and output channels). Such devices
are now listed as both an Audio/Sink as well as an Audio/Source.

As this element is single threaded, we only need to stop the objects to
allow changing the format again. Fixes assertion notably on shutdown and
on some other situation where the format may be set twice without
actually activating the element.

If the video4linux device supports norms but has no norm set, norm is
returned as an uninitialized variable after the ioctl call, leading to
gst_v4l2_tuner_get_norm_by_std_id() returning a random norm from the
supported norms. Catch this case and instead return NULL to indicate
that no norm is setup.

This is due to an unsafe usage of the pad task. We didn't ensure proper
ownership of the task. That race involved the task being released too early,
and was detected, luckily, by the glib mutex implementationt that
reported the mutex being disposed while being locked.

XNextEvent() blocks indefinitely in absence of X11 events, which can
prevent the pipeline from stopping.
This can cause problems when ximagesrc is used in "remote desktop"
scenarios and the GStreamer application itself, through which the user
is viewing and controlling the machine, is the only source of input
events.
Replace the call with non-blocking XCheckTypedEvent().

Also ignore 0x0 sizes in the fallback case and assume the size can be
anything between 1x1 and MAXxMAX.
This fixes the case where a width=0, height=0 caps are created. Whith

The `gst_v4l2_buffer_pool_dqbuf` function contains this ominous comment:
/* get our GstBuffer with that index from the pool, if the buffer was
* outstanding we have a serious problem.
*/
outbuf = pool->buffers[group->buffer.index];
Unfortunately it is common for buffers in _output_ buffer pools to be
both queued and outstanding at the same time. This can happen if the
upstream element keeps a reference to the buffer, or in an encoder
element itself when it keeps a reference to the input buffer for each
frame.
Since the current code doesn't handle this case properly we can end up
with crashes in other elements such as:
(gst-launch-1.0:32559): CRITICAL **: 17:33:35.740: gst_video_frame_map_id: assertion 'GST_IS_BUFFER (buffer)' failed
and:
(gst-launch-1.0:231): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: 00:16:20.882: write map requested on non-writable buffer
Both these crashes are caused by a race condition related to releasing
the same buffer twice from two different threads. If a buffer is queued
and outstanding this situation is possible:
**Thread 1**
- Calls `gst_buffer_unref` decrementing the reference count to zero.
- The core GstBufferPool object marks the buffer non-outstanding.
- Calls the V4L2 release buffer function.
- If the buffer is _not_ queued:
- Release it back to the free pool (containing non-queued buffers).
**Thread 2**
- Dequeues the queued output buffer.
- Marks the buffer as not queued.
- If the buffer is _not_ outstanding:
- Calls the V4L2 release buffer function.
- Release it back to the free pool (containing non-queued buffers).
If both of these threads run at exactly the same time there is a small
window where the buffer is marked both not outstanding and not queued
but before it has been released. In this case the buffer will be freed
twice causing the above crashes.
Unfortunately the variable recording whether a buffer is outstanding is
part of the core `GstBuffer` object and is managed by `GstBufferPool` so
it's not as straightforward as adding a mutex. Instead we can fix this
by additionally recording the buffer state in `GstV4l2BufferPool`, and
handle "internal" and "external" buffer release separately so we can
detect when a buffer becomes not outstanding.
In the new solution:
- The "external" buffer pool release and the "dqbuf" functions
atomically update the buffer state and determine if a buffer is still
queued or outstanding.
- Subsequent code and a new
`gst_v4l2_buffer_pool_complete_release_buffer` function can proceed to
release (or not) a buffer knowing that it's not racing with another
thread.
