Msdkdec should use it own pool when the allocation from downstream query
is not any msdk_allocator (i.e. msdk_video_allocator,
msdk_dmabuf_allocator and msdk_system_allocator). Otherwise, when using
pipeline "msdkh264dec ! vah264enc !" to transcode a not 16-bit-aligned
stream (i.e. 1920x1080), the transcoding will fail due to the size
mismatch issue between decoder pool and encoder pool.

When there is vpp scaling downstream, we need to make sure SFC is not
triggered because vpp may fall into passthrough mode which causes
the decoder negotiation to create src caps with vpp scaled width/height.
This patch includes bitstream's original size in first query with
downstream in gst_msdkdec_src_caps, which is the same for what we do for
color format in this query. This is to ensure SFC scaling starts to
work only when downstream directly asks for a different size instead of
through vpp.
Note that here SFC scaling follows the same behavior as msdkvpp:
if user only changes width or height, e.g. dec ! video/x-raw,width=xx !,
the height will be modified to the value which fits the original DAR.

The MSDK decoder's query function is not set and it just forwards
all query to its base class. We now need to answer the context
query correctly. Other VA plugins need to query the VA display.
By the way, the current query of "gst.msdk.Context" is also missing.
The other MSDK elements must depend on the bin's context message(
sent in context_propagate()) to set their MsdkContext correctly.

We now can use the gst va lib's display to create our MSDK context,
and use its helper functions to simplify our code. The improved logic
is like this:
1. Every MSDK element should use gst_msdk_context_find() to find a MSDK
context from neighbour. If valid, reuse it.
2. Use gst_msdk_ensure_new_context(). It will first query neighbours
about the GstVaDisplay, if found(e.g. some VA element is connected),
use gst_msdk_context_from_external_display() to create a MSDK context.
3. Then, creating the MSDK context from scratch. It creates both the
display and MSDK context.
