Add the necessary helpers in GstVaapiDisplay to determine whether subpictures
with global alpha are supported or not. Also add accessors in GstVaapiSubpicture
to address this feature.

Use glib >= 2.32 semantics for GMutex and GRecMutex wrt. initialization
and termination. Basically, the new mutex objects can be used as static
mutex objects from the deprecated APIs, e.g. GStaticMutex and GStaticRecMutex.
Some VA drivers (e.g. EMGD) can have completely random values for initial
display attributes. So, try to improve the discovery process to check the
initial display attribute values actually fall within valid bounds. If not,
try to reset those to some sensible values like the default value reported
through vaQueryDisplayAttributes().
Use g_object_class_install_properties() to install GstVaapiDisplay properties.
It is useful to maintain properties as GParamSpec so that to be able to raise
"notify" signals by id instead of by name in the future.
A rendering mode can be "overlay" or "texture"'ed blit.
The former mode implies that a VA surface used for rendering can't be
re-used right away for decoding, so the sink shall make provisions to
retain the associated surface proxy until the next surface is to be
displayed.
The latter mode implies that the VA surface is implicitly copied to an
intermediate backing store, or back buffer of a frame buffer, so the
associated surface proxy can be disposed right away.
The VA display attributes are mapped to properties so that to maintain the
GStreamer terminology. Properties are to be identified by name, but internal
functions are available to lookup the property by the actual VA display
attribute type.
Move display types from gstvaapipluginutil.* to gstvaapidisplay.* so that
we could simplify characterization of a GstVaapiDisplay. Also rename "auto"
type to "any", and add a "display-type" attribute.
This is a preferred thread-safe version. Also add an inline version of
g_clear_object() if compiling with glib < 2.28.

several times. This fixes decoding of MPEG-2 and H.264
because those created a GstVaapiContext later through
avcodec_decode_video() that was a protected call.
