The src caps of the libde265 is now fixed to I420, and so if the
stream is other format, such as 4:4:4 or 10 bits format, the pipeline
will crash because the dowstream element accesses the video buffer as
I420 format.
We now restrain the input caps to "main" profile, which only contains
4:2:0 8 bits stream.

When decoding stream using hardware V4L2 decoder element, in any of the
currently supported formats, the decoding will fail once frame number
1000000 is reached. The reported error clearly indicates a wrap-around
occured, instead of receiving decoded frame 1000000, frame 0 is received
from the hardware V4L2 decoder driver.
The problem is actually not in the driver itself, but rather in gstreamer,
which uses `struct v4l2_buffer` member `.timestamp` in a special way. The
timestamp of buffers with encoded data added to the SINK (input) queue of
the driver is copied by the driver into matching buffers with decoded data
added to the SOURCE (output) queue of the driver. In fact, the timestamp
is not a timestamp at all, but rather in this special case, only part of
it is used as an incrementing frame counter.
The `.timestamp` is of type `struct timeval`, which is defined in
`sys/time.h` [1]. Only the `tv_usec` member of this structure is used
for the incrementing frame counter. However, suseconds_t tv_usec [2]
may be limited to range [-1, 1000000]:
"
[XSI] The type suseconds_t shall be a signed integer type capable of
storing values at least in the range [-1, 1000000].
"
Therefore, once frame 1000000 is reached, a rollover occurs and decoding
fails.
Fix this by using both `struct timeval` members, `.tv_sec` and `.tv_usec`
with matching modular arithmetic, this way the failure would occur again
just short of 2^84 frames, which should be plenty.

avoid crashing if the underlying library hasn't been swapped out yet.

After rendering a QML scene the qmlglsrc element copies the contents of
the scene to a GStreamer buffer. This happens on the Qt render thread.
Then it attaches a sync point to the destination buffer. This sync point
must be awaited by other threads which use the buffer later on. The
current implementation relies on the downstream elements to wait for the
sync point. However, there are situation where this does not work. The
GstBaseTransform e.g. copies the buffer metadata (which overwrites the
sync point without waiting for it) *before* waiting for the sync point.
This commit waits for the sync point inside the qmlglsrc element before
sending it downstream. The wait command is issued on the streaming
thread with the pipeline OpenGL context, i.e. it will synchronize with
the GStreamer OpenGL thread.

The counter was using a signed 8 bit integer, which was overflowing
after 127 entries. That was then passed as an unsigned 32 bit integer to
libflac, which caused it to be converted to a huge unsigned number.
That then caused an invalid memory access inside libflac.
As a bonus, signed integer overflow is undefined behaviour.
Instead, use an unsigned 8 bit integer. Once this overflows the existing
code already catches it and stops adding the cue. While FLAC__metadata_object_cuesheet_insert_track()
takes an unsigned 32 bit integer for the track number, FLAC__StreamMetadata_CueSheet_Track is
limiting it to an unsigned 8 bit integer.

Issue is that when amc was producing a codec-data buffer, a
GstVideoCodecFrame was being popped off the internal queue. This meant
that the codec-data was being associated with the first input frame and
the second (first encoded buffer) output buffer with the second input
frame. At the end (assuming one input produces one output which seems
to hold in my testing and how the encoder is currently implemented)
there would be an input frame missing and would be pushed without any
timing information. This would lead to e.g. muxers rejecting the buffer
without PTS and failing to mux.

This EOS branch exists so that if a seek with a stop is made, qtdemux
stops accepting bytes from the sink after the entire requested playback
range is demuxed, as otherwise we could keep download content that is
not being used.
This patch fixes two flaws that were present in that EOS check:
1) A comparison was made between track time and movie time without conversion.
This made the check trigger early in files with edit lists. This patch fixes
this by converting the track PTS to movie PTS (stream time) for the check.
2) To avoid sending a EOS prematurely when the segment stop is within a GOP and
B-frames are present, the check for EOS should only be done for keyframes. I
gather this was already the intention with the existing code, but because it
used `stream->on_keyframe` instead of the local variable `keyframe` the old
code was checking if the *previous* frame was a keyframe.
It's interesting to note that these two flaws in the old code mask each other
in most cases: the track PTS will have reached the movie end PTS, but EOS would
only be sent if the previous frame was a keyframe. A simple case where they
wouldn't mask each other, reproducing the bug, is a sequence of 3 frame GOPs
with structure I-B-P.
The following validateflow tests have been added to future-proof the
fix:
* validate.test.mp4.qtdemux_ibpibp_non_frag_pull.default
* validate.test.mp4.qtdemux_ibpibp_non_frag_push.default

align driver bytesused to the offset, we recalculate the offset, which
removed the modification we did before.

Setting the input field on the empty slot prevents future linking of it and will
result in flow errors later on.
This was observed in WebKit's MediaStream source element, when it changes the
caps on one of its associated streams, from an encoded format to a raw video
format. The associated stream-id on the sticky stream-start event doesn´t
change, but the element creates a new GstStream with a different ID and sets it
on the stream-start event. Stream parsing is disabled in urisourcebin, so
decodebin3 handles the parsing. Without this patch we would end-up with unlinked
pads in decodebin3 after switching to the raw video format.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/5067>
Generating the source element is done when urisourcebin is doing the READY to
PAUSED state change, so it is reasonable to set the new source element to that
state.
This also allows detecting early failures with backing libraries or
hardware (checks done in NULL->READY).
Finally it makes more sense to have an element in READY when attempting to query
information from it (such as SCHEDULING queries or probing live-ness).
