Temporarily release the video decoder stream lock so that other
threads can continue decoding (e.g. call get_frame()) while data
is being pushed downstream.
At this point it is locked twice, we release one, and then the base class
releases the last one just before pushing the data.

According to the ffmpeg documentation[1] the read_packet function should never
return 0. ffmpegdata_peek returns 0 when the stream is EOF causing us to fail
detecting EOF and never close the pipeline, continually spinning on more data.
ffmpeg instead wants an AVERROR_EOF code for to signal EOF.

GstFFMpegAudDec.context can be nullptr if decoder got closed
without opening new context. Note that we don't need to clear
AVCodecContext.extradata there since avcodec_free_context()
will do clear the data if needed.

avcodec_close() is deprecated and it's not supported anymore to re-open
a codec, so we only ever allocate the codec in set_format() now and
always free it after usage.
As part of this, also fix various memory leaks in related code paths.

* gst_ffmpegviddec_frame() is the only caller of gst_ffmpegviddec_video_frame()
and has the same signature. Just move the checks into a single function and
use that.
* Make it clear which frames are the input and output ones in
gst_ffmpegviddec_video_frame() to make issues like the one fixed in the previous
commit more obvious.

Direct access to AVInputFormat::read_probe() is not possible anymore
with ffmpeg 7.0, and the usefulness of this typefinder seems limited
anyway. An alternative implementation around av_probe_input_format3() or
similar would be possible but it would be going over all possible ffmpeg
probes at once.
Having a typefinder here means that basically every application will
load the gst-libav plugin when typefinding is necessary, which has
unnecessary performance impacts. If a typefinder from here was indeed
missing from typefindfunctions in gst-plugins-base then it would be
better to add it there directly.

This fixes the code regarding dropping "ghost frames", that is to say input
frames which ended up not producing any decoded frame.
The iteration itself makes sense.. but it was stopping at the "input" frame and
not the decoded frame we just got back.
When dealing with I-frame codecs, ffmpeg will decode frames in separate frames,
so there is no guarantee that they are decoding in order.

This is the maximum amount supported by aacenc. 8-channel output fully works.
16-channel also encodes fine, but codec-utils isn't able to parse its channel config,
so output level will not be shown in caps. For that to work, GASpecificConfig parsing
needs to be implemented. It's not a critical issue and can be worked on at a later date.

With the new copy_opaque system, the corresponding frame is stored in the
picture opaque ref.
This also handles the case where the "regular" opaque might be empty in the
case of "DECODE_ONLY" frames, since it that field is set in `get_buffer2()`
which might not be called for those frames
