Do not chain up to parent's GstBufferPool::start() which will do
preallocation. We don't want it to be preallocated
since there are various cases where negotiated downstream buffer pool is
not used at all (e.g., zero-copy decoding, IPC elements).

Gets being released memory back to queue even if allocator is flushing
in order to count the number of outstanding memory objects.
Also, clear queue if there's no outstanding memory object and
allocator is flushing

There's no reason to release GstMemory manually at all.
If we do release GstMemory, corresponding GstBuffer will be
discarded by GstBufferPool baseclass because the size is changed
to zero.
Actual cause of heavy CPU usage in case of fixed-size pool
(i.e., decoder output buffer pool) and if we remove GstMemory from
GstBuffer is that GstBufferPool baseclass is doing busy wait in acquire_buffer()
for some reason. That needs to be investigated though, discarding
and re-alloc every GstBuffer is not ideal already.

* Private header name is changed to gstd3d11-private.h to follow
naming convention
* Add Since mark everywhere
* Update member variable names to be consistent with the other
object implementations in this library
* Correct outdated documentation

Our Direct3D11 abstraction layer has been improved and
it gained good shape from API point of view.
Also, On Windows, GstD3D11 has various advantages over GstGL
in terms of compatibility/stability/feature/performance.
Note that WGL implementation is known to be buggy for some
drivers/vendors/scenario (that's a reason why Google implemented ANGLE).
Moreover, GstGL is not fully optimized for Windows unfortunately.
It's the time to open this interface to application developers
for various optimized processing using our Direct3D11
infrastructure.

Remove all the d3d11 and dxgi header version dependent ifdef
and bump the minimum requirement to d3d11_4.h and dxgi1_6.h.
We are already failing support old Visual Studio (Windows SDK actually)
such as Visual Studio 2015. Note that our MinGW toolchain satisfies
the requirement.
From runtime point of view, this change should be fine since
we are checking OS version with IUnknown::QueryInterface()
everywhere in order to check API availability
