The support for buffer exports in VA-API was added in version 0.36. These
interfaces are for interop with EGL, OpenCL, etc.
GStreamer-VAAPI uses it for a dmabuf memory allocator. Though, gstreamer-vaapi
has to support VA-API versions ranging from 0.30.4, which doesn't support it.
This patch guards all the buffer exports handling (and dmabuf allocator) if
the detected VA-API version is below 0.36.

We get one reference when the frame is passed to decode_handle_frame()
and create another one in gst_vaapi_decoder_push_frame().
Usually the frame is handled in gst_vaapidecode_push_decoded_frame().
Here the frame is always released twice:
gst_video_decoder_finish_frame() + gst_video_codec_frame_unref() or
gst_video_decoder_drop_frame() + gst_video_codec_frame_unref().
In gst_vaapidecode_reset_full() both references to the frame must be
released as well.

The support for GStreamer 1.0 has been obsoleted in 0.5.10 release.
GStreamer 1.2 is the a minimal requirement for building the gstreamer-vaapi.
This patch removes all the pre-processor conditional code compilation guarded
for gstreamer-1.0.
Thus, all the video converters were removed too.

The purpose of gstcompat.h is to couple the API differences among
gstreamer-1.0 and gstreamer-0.10. Since gstreamer-0.10 is obsolete, the code
in this compatibility layer shall be removed.
Nevertheless, the gstcompat.h header should be kept, if new incompatibilites
appear in the future, but it shall live in gst/vaapi, not in gst-libs.
This patch removes the crumbs defined gstcompat.h and moves it to gst/vaapi.
In order to avoid layer violations, gstcompat.h includes sysdeps.h and all
the includes in gst/vaapi of sysdeps.h are replaced with gstcompat.h

Since GStreamer 1.2 the vmethod reset() in GstVideoDecoderClass was deprecated
and flush() was added.
This patch set the vmethod flush() if the installed GStreamer version is 1.2 or
superior. Otherwise, reset() is set.
v2: 1) In order to avoid symbol collision, the old method gst_vaapidecode_flush()
was renamed to gst_vaapidecode_internal_flush().
2) The new vmethod flush() always do a hard full reset.
v3: 1) Call gst_vaapidecode_internal_flush() first in flush() vmethod, in order to
gather all collected data with gst_video_decoder_have_frame()

Sometimes, for example, when switching video streams but keeping

GstVideoDecoder, the base class of vaapidecode, added support for
pad queries as virtual methods. This patch enables the use of that
support, while keeping support for lower versions of gstreamer.
This patch is important because GstVideoDecoder takes care of other
queries that might be important in the pipeline managing.
v2: 1) rebase to current master
2) fix indentation with gst-indent
3) simplify the patch layout
4) fix the context query
5) initialise the filter to NULL
6) improve the query log message for gst-1.2

The gst_video_colorimetry_to_string() function returns a newly created
string that represents the GstVideoColorimetry value. So, that needs
to be released after usage, in e.g. GST_DEBUG().
Add a "vaapidecodebin" element to vaapi plugins.
Child Elements: "vaapidecode ! queue ! vaapipostproc"
The Reasons for implementing a new bin element:
-- Help to Autoplug Hardware Accelerated Video Postprocessing element in playbin
with out any dependency to upstream gstreamer.
This is to overcome the *unacceptable* delay in upstream gstreamer to get new
features in. Eg: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687182.
Also customers using older gstreamer versions (1.2 and 1.4) will get the
benefit of autoplugging, hardware accelerated deinterlacing support etc.
-- Help to maintain a single thread implementation in vaapidecode.
This will result a dead-lock free vaapidecode in most of the cases.
More details here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742605https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=745216
Because the decoder uses the thread from handle_frame() to decode a frame,
the src pad task creates an unsolveable AB-BA deadlock between
handle_frame() waiting for a free surface and decode_loop() pushing
decoded frames out.
Instead, have handle_frame() take responsibility for pushing surfaces,
and remove the deadlock completely. If you need a separate thread
downstream, you can insert a queue between vaapidecode and its downstream
to get one.
Another justification for the single thread implementation is,
there are two many point of locking in gstreamer-vaapi's current
implementation which can lead to deadlocks.

Improve check for upstream element that requires DMABUF buffer pool,
e.g. v4l2src element. In particular, make sure to traverse through
any additional capsfilter for instance.
Note: the traversal to the top-most upstream element could be made
more generic, but we are insofar only interested in supporting pipes
similar to v4l2src or v4l2src ! capsfilter, e.g. with an explicit
specification for a desired video camera format, or resolution.
The dmabuf allocator would close the DMABUF handle passed in the init
function gst_dmabuf_allocator_alloc(). So, we need to dup() it so that
to avoid a double close, ultimately in the underlying driver that owns
the DMABUF handle.
vaapidecode keeps an output state that use the format
GST_VIDEO_FORMAT_ENCODED, while it crafts a different src caps
for a correct negotiation.
I don't see the rational behind this decoupling, it looks like
unnecessary complexity. This patch simplify this logic keeping
in sync the output state and the src caps.
This patch improves the readability of the function
gst_vaapidecode_update_src_caps() and simplify its logic. Also,
the patch validates if the buffer pool has the configuration for
the GL texture upload meta, in order to set the caps feature
meta:GLTextureUpload. Otherwise, the I420 format is set back.

When vaapidecode finishes the decoding of a frame and pushes it,
if, in the decide_allocation() method, it is determined if the
next element supports the GL texture upload meta feature, the
decoder adds the buffer's meta.
Nonetheless, in the same spirit of the commit 71d3ce4d, the
determination if the next element supports the GL texture upload
meta needs to check both the preferred caps feature *and* if the
allocation query request the API type.
This patch, first removes the unused variable need_pool, and
determines the attribute has_texture_upload_meta using the
preferred caps feature *and* the allocation query.
Also, the feature passed to GstVaapPluginBase is not longer
determined by has_texture_upload_meta, but by the computed
preferred one.
