These checks were introduced to prevent exposing ARGB64/RGBA64 in the caps
when running on M1 Pro/Max with macOS <13 because of a bug in VideoToolbox.
Unfortunately, the initial buffer size of 15 is too short when running
in a VM - the CPU brand string there looks like "Apple M1 Pro (Virtual)",
which due to its length causes sysctlbyname to return -1, resulting in
broken formats still showing up in the caps.

We did several things to enable the new memory logic in msdkdec:
(1) We always use video memory for decoder in linux path;
(2) We give negotiated pool to alloc_pool stored in GstMsdkContext which
will be used in callback mfxFrameAllocator:Alloc to alloc surfaces as
MediaSDK needs, and this pool is also available for decoder itself;
(3) We modify decide_allocation process, that is we make pool negotiaion
before gst_msdk_init_decoder to ensure the pool is decided and ready for
use in mfxFrameAllocator:Alloc callback; then we will consider the case
when we need to do the gpu to cpu copy.
(4) In gst_msdkdec_finish_task, we modify the way for copy following the
logic in (3).

Add a pool creation function name as 2 for later use which will create
va pool for video memory in linux and keep system pool for windows.
This gst_msdkdec_create_buffer_pool2 will replace gst_msdkdec_create_buffer_pool
when all the memory allocation modifications are ready in the commits after.

Rewrite gst_msdk_frame_alloc and name it as xxx_2 before applying it.
It uses negotiated bufferpool stored in GstMsdkContext to allocate buffers
in the callback MfxFrameAllocator:Alloc, then extract VASurface from buffer,
wrap it as mfxMemIDs and pass these IDs to MediaSDK/oneVPL.

The dimension of the overlay texture directly corresponds to the size of the overlay **buffer** which is given by its video meta.
The dimension at which the overlay should be displayed directly correspond to the overlay `render_width`and `render_height`.
This match the behavior of glimagesink

Instead of creating new decoder instance per new sequence,
re-use configured decoder instance via cuvidReconfigureDecoder()
API. It will make output surface reusable without re-allocation.
Also, in order for application to be able to reserve higher resolution
output surface, "init-max-width" and "init-max-height" properties are
added to each decoder.

Call input resource map functions (i.e., nvEncRegisterResource,
nvEncUnregisterResource, nvEncMapInputResource, and
nvEncUnmapInputResource) only once and reuse the mapped resources,
instead of per input frame map/unmap

Wrap mapped decoder output surface using GstCudaMemory and
output without any copy operation. Also, for application to be able to
control the number of zero-copyable output surfaces,
"num-output-surfaces" property is added.

Fixes#1358.
Passing ARGB64/RGBA64 to vtenc caused the encoding to fail
when running on M1 Pro/Max variants with macOS 12.x, so let's
remove these formats from caps when such scenario is detected.
This issue appears to have been fixed OS-side in macOS 13.0.

This was causing incorrect output when seeking, especially
when used with a multithreaded source like `videotestsrc n-threads=2`.
It should now correctly wait for frames still being processed by VT
while vtdec is flushing.
