This new class is a helper for fast/tricky copy of surfaces. First it
tries to copy using the function vaCopy in libva 1.12. If it fails, or
it's not available, a GstVaFilter is tried to be instantiated with the
allocator's parameters, and if succeed, it's used for copying the
source surface.
This is required for dmabuf surfaces with drm modifier.

libgudev is a problematic dependency, particularly in sandboxed
environments, such as flatpak.
This patch implements a way to get the available VA devices using
brute-forced traverse of /dev/drm/renderD* directory. Thus usable in
those sandboxed environments.

When move the libgstva, libgudev dependency was moved as part of the
library, though it's not use by the library but the plugin. This patch
moves back libgudev dependency to the plugin.
Also HAVE_LIBDRM is move to the library which is the one who use it.

This patch contains two updates:
1. Instead of checking for dependency already checked just to verify a
version, we use the dependency version API.
2. Update the deprecated function get_pkgconfig_variable.
