Similar to vtdec_hw, this commit adds a vtenc_h264_hw element that fails
caps negotiation unless a hardware encoder could actually be acquired.
This is useful in situations where a fallback to a software encoder
other than the vtenc_h264 software encoder is desired (e.g. to x264enc).

When renegotiating mid stream - for example with variable bitrate
streams - and therefore destroying and recreating VTSessions, the
hw decoder might become temporarily unavailable.
To deal with this and avoid erroring out on bitrate changes,
vtdec_hw now falls back to using the software decoder if the hw
one was available at some point but isn't anymore. At
renegotiation/bitrate change time, it will still retry to open
the hardware one.
::negotiate can be called several times before the CAPS event is sent downstream
so use the currently configured output state caps instead of the pad current
caps when deciding whether to recreate the VTSession or not.
This leads to creating/destroying less VTSessions which makes renegotiation more
reliable especially when using hw decoding.
There's no need for an end-of-list marker in the filter
PIDs array if full, as the absolute maximum number of
elements (MAX_FILTERS) is known.

This bug was found via cppcheck static analysis.
If android.hardware.Camera.getParameters returns NULL, then object will
be NULL, and we won't allocate params. This means that the GST_DEBUG
statement referencing params->object will be invalid. Fix this by
exiting early if android.hardware.Camera.getParameters returns NULL.

There is no way to tell one over the other when parameters
seem valid for DVB-T and DVB-T2 and the adapter supports
both. Reason to go with the former here is that, from
experience, most DVB-T2 channels out there seem to use
parameters that are not valid for DVB-T, like QAM_256

DVB-T/T2 have the same number of fields so we were
wrongly assuming DVB-T for DVB-T2 broadcasts. Not
setting the delivery system here allows for dvbsrc
to make an informed guess based on the channel
parameters.
When there's no explicit delivery system information
for a channel in the channel configuration file and
the user hasn't selected one via setting the delsys
property, we *guessed* it by selecting the last
supported delsys reported by the driver. This change
provides the basis for smarter delsys auto detection
and implements a rule for DVB-T2. Rules for other
delivery systems can be added in _guess_delsys() in
a similar way.
Additionally: Store list of adapter-supported
delivery systems instead of querying the driver each
time this information is needed.

The device name and descriptions returned are in the locale encoding, not
UTF8. Our device name property is in UTF8 though, so we need to convert.
