We avoid resetting the internal FFmpeg decoder on framerate changes,
but in turn this means we were not updating the framerate on the srcpad,
which was clearly incorrect. This change keeps the optimization but ensures
that we renegotiate downstream when framerate changes occur.

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.

We would previously register a whole bunch of encoder/decoder for which the caps
were ... "unknown/unknown".
Add a function to quickly check (without generating caps) whether a given
AVCodecID has a known mapping (which can include the {video|audio}/x-gst-av-*
ones) without generating the caps.

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.

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.
Fixes playback issues with such codecs

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
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6301>
Instead of passing along the system frame number, we pass along a reference to
the GstVideoCodecFrame.
In order for all internal cleanup to happen properly, this also requires
switching to the proper AVPacket creation/destruction methods (av_packet_alloc()
and av_packet_unref())

This is already done for every other calls to send_packet. The deadlock occures
since FFMPeg 6.0. The decoder tries to get a buffer from a thread during
the draining process, and blocks trying to get the video decoder stream lock
already heald by the drain function.

This fixes a compile error with recent upstream FFmpeg.
The AV_CODEC_CAP_AUTO_THREADS was deprecated and renamed to
AV_CODEC_CAP_OTHER_THREADS in FFmpeg upstream commit
7d09579190de (lavc 58.132.100).
The AV_CODEC_CAP_AUTO_THREADS was finally removed in FFmpeg upstream
commit 10c9a0874cb3 (lavc 59.63.100).

In cases where an invalid input packet is submitted to the decoder we emit a
warning but reporting the flow error upstream would also be useful. This came up
with a case were the application interacts directly with the decoder, using a
mechanism similar to GstHarness.

There are cases where upstream will not provide a framerate, or it won't be
fixed. But if there is latency introduced by the decoder we do want to report
it.
Therefore use the framerate stored in the actual decoder, which will have a
default.
Fixes hangs when playing back such streams with decodebin3 (where the multiqueue
will not have been informed of that downstream latency and not grow accordingly)

The picture parameter picture->top_field_first is reused in this mode
to signal the TOP fields. As a side effect, it will change every frame
and current code assumed that if this changes then a renegotiation is
needed. Fixed this by ignoring that change whenever we are decoding one field
only.

Some encoders (e.g. Makito) have H265 field-based interlacing, but then
also specify an 1:2 pixel aspect ratio. That makes it kind-of work with
decoders that don't properly support field-based decoding, but makes us
end up with the wrong aspect ratio if we implement everything properly.
As a workaround, detect 1:2 pixel aspect ratio for field-based
interlacing, and check if making that 1:1 would make the new display
aspect ratio common. In that case, we override it with 1:1.

FFMPEG 5+ doesn't allow overriding the codec anymore (causes a segfault if you
attempt to do that). But the best part is ... that with the current caps
implementation in pad template and gst_ffmpeg_caps_to_codecid() we would never
replace it by anything different than the existing codec id.

Latest ffmpeg has removed avcodec_get_context_defaults(), and its
documentation says a new AVCodecContext should be allocated for this
purpose. The pointer returned by avcodec_find_decoder() is now
const-qualified so we also need to adjust for it. And, AVCOL_RANGE_MPEG
is now rejected with strict_std_compliance > FF_COMPLIANCE_UNOFFICIAL.
