Nouveau driver currently only exposes postproc entry. But
vaapidecodebin is registered independent if there are decoders or not,
exposing a segmentation fault.
This patch removes the encoder/decoder/codec arrays if no entries are
found, and if no decoders are found vaapidecodebin is not
registered. Also for vaapipostproc if no postproc entry is found.
Also, if general decoder, used by vaapidecodebin, doesn't have a sink
pad string, don't register the glib type.
Fixes: #1349

Often, users will need to scale inputs (e.g.
with vaapipostproc) before they are submitted
to the vaapioverlay. However, this results in
multiple VPP passes/operations in the pipeline
which creates unnecessary process overhead.
This change allows for inputs to be submitted
at original scale to vaapioverlay with per-sinkpad
scale dimensions specified so they can be scaled
and blended/composited in a single VPP pass/operation
to avoid the unnecessary process overhead.

Platform wise, is not possible, as far as I known, to have Wayland
without kernel's DRM. Though, it's possible to configure
gstreamer-vaapi without DRM but Wayland support, with the enhanced
handling of dmabuf in vaapisink for Wayland, vaapisink will always
fail. Given both issues, configuration with no DRM but Wayland, makes
things more complex, and a simpler approach is to refuse that
configuration.
This patch disables Wayland support if there isn't DRM support. Also,
it disables the display test for Wayland, relying only on DRM and
X11.

vaapidecode is used in vaapidecodebin and it exposes all the
theoretically supported caps, but that slows down autoplug. With this
autplug is negotiated faster, giving more option to decodebin to select
other decoder.
