The Cedrus driver would otherwise choose 1KB buffer, which is too small.
This follows what some drivers do, which is simply to use the size a
packed raw image would have. Specifications do not really guaranty any minimum
compression ratio.

This adds support for slice based decoder like the Allwinner/Cedrus driver. In
order to keep things efficient, we hold the sink buffer until we reach the end
of the picture. Note that as we don't know which one is last, we lazy queue the
slices. This effectively introduces one slice latency.

This code add required mechanism to try and allocate (not implemented yet)
otherwise wait for more buffers. This also comes with mechanism to terminate
the wait on flush or PAUSED_TO_READY transitions.
This allow negotiating the output format through caps. Some drivers can
pipeline the decoder buffer through an image processor. This only support
colorspace conversion for now.
This introduces the skeleton of the H264 decoder. The plugin will list the
devices and register a subclass of the GstV4L2CodecH264Dec base class. The
subclass will pick the required specific information from the GstV4L2Device
stored in the subclass structure.
This is a GstObject which will be used to hold on media and video device file
descriptor and provide abstracted ioctl calls with these descriptor. At the
moment this helper contains just enough to enumerate the supported format.
This part will be used by the plugin to register the CODEC specific elements..
