The Microsoft Media Foundation (MF) is the successor of DirectShow.
This commit includes two kinds of video capture implementation,
one uses IMFSourceReader interface which is available since Windows Vista
and the other is based on IMFCaptureEngine interface which is available
since Windows 8.
Note that this new video source element cannot be used in UWP app
for now, since device activation using those APIs are not allowed by MS.

the old manner does not consider the profile idc. The profile idc should
play an more important role in recognizing the profile than the other
information. And there is no need to mix profiles of different extensions
together to find the closest profile when the bits stream is not standard,
different extensions support different features and should not be mixed.
The correct way should be recognize the extension category by profile idc
firstly, and then find the closest profile.

FormatRangeExtensionProfile declares the common bits used for not
only format range extensions profiles, but also for several different
h265 extension profiles, such as high throughput, screen content
coding extensions, etc. And So the old name is not proper.
We also rename the get_h265_extension_profile function.

We should use the traget ExtensionProfile's IDC to check the
profile_compatibility_flag, rather than the profile_idc in the
stream. The old profile_compatibility_flag check always return
true. This causes that profiles with same constraint flags but
different profile_idc can't be recognized correctly. For example,
the screen-extended-main-444 profile is always be recognized as
the high-throughput-444 profile.

In case of IDR, any previously decoded pictures must be drained
before the IDR and POC of IDR should be zero. So we can output
IDR immediately. Also, when POC of current picture is expected to be
the next output POC, decoder can output the picture as well
without waiting.

Introduce GST_USE_NV_STATELESS_CODEC environment to allow user to select
primary nvidia decoder implementation. In case the environment
GST_USE_NV_STATELESS_CODEC=h264 was set, old nvidia h264 decoder element
will not be registered. Instead, both nvh264dec and nvh264sldec
factory name will create gstcodecs based new nvidia h264 decoder element.

Introduce GstH264Decoder based Nvidia H.264 decoder element.
Similar the element factory name of to v4l2 stateless codec,
this element can be configured with factory name "gstnvh264sldec".
Note that "sl" in the name stands for "stateless"
For now, existing nvh264dec covers more profile and formats
(e.g., interlaced stream) than this implementation.
However, this implementation allows us to control lower level
parameters such as decoded picture buffer management and therefore
we can get a chance to improve performance in terms of latency.

If we receive video buffers with non-perfect timestamps, the
caption buffers' timestamps might fall in the interval between
the end of one video buffer and the start of the next one.
Make our criteria for dropping that the caption buffer has
a timestamp older than the end of the previous video buffer,
not older than the start of the new one, unless of course
this is the first video buffer.

We can't be sure about the reference count if the muxer is currently
running, which can happen in the test_reappearing_pad test. An
additional reference might temporarily be owned by the srcpad task of
tsmux while iterating over the pads.
The render width/height and the vinfo was only saved upon renegotiation. This
fixes the problem by saving this metadata at the same time the buffer is
saved. The saved copy of this is needed for expose() and drain() virtual functions.
This fixes various assertion that happens on drain query.
Otherwise we may endup pushing incomplete caps, which cause a renegotiation.
Note that this has the effect that caps are no longer pushed twice in presence
of valid framerate in the headers.
Otherwise we may endup pushing incomplete caps. Note that this has the side
effect that caps are no longer pushed twice in presence of VUI with valid
framerate.
There is some code to fixup broken stream that uses the SEI location,
this code is meant to locate SUFFIX SEI only. This should prevent
unwanted side effect if SUFFIX SEI is used.
