9d5fc53899 encoder: h264: fix default CPB buffer size.
Fix default CPB buffer size to something more reasonable (1500 ms)
and that still fits the level limits. This is a non configurable
property for now. The initial CPB removal delay is also fixed to
750 ms.

bdf91aa765 encoder: h264: allow target decoder constraints.
Allow user to precise the largest profile to use for encoding due
to target decoder constraints. For instance, if CABAC entropy coding
mode is requested by "constrained-baseline" profile only is desired,
then an error is returned during codec configuration.

Also make sure that the suitable profile we derived actually matches
what the HW can cope with.

8df97cf9ec encoder: h264: expose more coding tools.
Add new H.264 coding tools to improve compression:
- "cabac": enable CABAC entropy coding (default: FALSE);
- "dct8x8": enable spatial transform 8x8 (default: FALSE).

b59a5572af encoder: h264: derive profile and level from active coding tools.
Automatically derive the minimum profile and level to be used for
encoding, based on the activated coding tools. The encoder will
be trying to generate a bitstream that has the best chances to be
decoded on most platforms by default.

Also change the default profile to "constrained-baseline" so that
to ensure maximum compatibility when the stream is decoded.

e2f8c059a5 encoder: h264: support only the byte-stream format.
The libgstvaapi core encoders are meant to support raw bitstreams only.
Henceforth, we are always producing a stream in "byte-stream" format.

However, the "codec-data" buffer which holds SPS and PPS headers is
always available. The "lengthSizeMinusOne" field is always set to 3
so that in-place "byte-stream" format to "avc" format conversion could
be performed.

45732dcc83 encoder: h264: clean-ups.
Various clean-ups to improve consistency and readability: rename some
variables, drop unused macro definitions, drop initialization of vars
that are zero-initialized from the base class, drop un-necessary casts.

59229b20a5 encoder: add keyframe period API.
Add gst_vaapi_encoder_set_keyframe_period() interface to allow the
user control the maximum distance between two keyframes. This new
property can only be set prior to gst_vaapi_encoder_set_codec_state().

A value of zero for "keyframe-period" gets it re-evaluated to the
actual framerate during encoder reconfiguration.

dcc7a94408 encoder: add properties API.
Add interface to communicate configurable properties to the encoder.
This covers both the common ones (rate-control, bitrate), and the
codec specific properties.
