In theory, input caps can be updated anytime at non-keyframe or
sequence boundary, such as HDR10 metadata, framerate, aspect-ratio
or so. Those information update might not trigger ::new_sequence()
or subclass may ignore the changes.
By this commit, input state change will be tracked by baseclass
and subclass will be able to know the non-decoding-essential
update by checking the codec specific picture struct
on ::output_picture()

As SPEC says, when multi spatial layer exists, we should only output
one frame with the highest spatial id from each TU. We now store the
highest spatial layer information in the base class in order to let
the sub class handle different layers easily.

It may happens that bitstream doesn't provided SPS in decoding order
(like in VPSSPSPPS_A_MainConcept_1 conformance test file).
To be sure that the decoder got the correct SPS parameters process
SPS just before start decoding the frame.

Use newly added gst_h265_parser_identify_and_split_nalu_hevc()
method to handle broken streams where packetized NAL unit
contain start code prefix in it.
It's obviously wrong stream but we know how to work around it
and even need to support such broken streams since
stateless decoder implementations are being a primary
decoder element.

Baseclass calls get_preferred_output_delay() in a chain of
sequence header parsing and then new_sequence() is called
with required DPB size (includes render-delay) information.
Thus latency query should happen before the sequence header
parsing for subclass to report required render-delay accordingly
via get_preferred_output_delay() method.
(e.g., zero delay in case of live pipeline)
This commit is to fix wrong liveness signalling in case of
upstream packetized format.

Make all codecs consistent so that subclass can know additional DPB
size requirement depending on render-delay configuration regardless
of codec. Note that render-delay feature is not implemented for AV1
yet but it's planned.
Also, consider new_sequence() is mandatory requirement, not optional

This flag is set when the stream is interlaced and the specific
slice is made of single parity fields rather the paired at the
macroblock layer. This is rarely needed in late decoding process
but the Rockchip RKVDEC HW interface requires it, hence needs to
be passed through V4L2 Stateless interface.

Pass the current frame to the duplicate_picture callback. This makes it easier
to set the frame's output_buffer if we already have one available. Also
documented that unlike VP9, it is not optional to implement this as the
picture will populate the DPB if it is a key-frame. To ensure this, remove the
default implementation.

The system_frame_number is notably used by V4L2 decoder as a unique
indentifier for the frame that was decoded. This value is used to tell driver
which frame to reference, as V4L2 does not have an efficient mechanism to
otherwise pass back the frames.
For this reason, and because it is more ligical, copy the original
system_frame_number into the duplicate picture instead of using the current
frame.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/1992>
Showing existing keyframe have special meaning in AV1. All the references
frame will be refreshed with the original keyframe information. The refresh
process (7.20) is implemented by saving data from the frame_header into the
state. To fix this special case, load all the relevant information into the
frame_header.
As there is nothing happening in between this and the loading of the key-frame
into the state, this patch also remove the separate API function, using it
internally instead.

Holding previously decoded but not outputted pictures even after
new_sequence is not a safe approach in various aspect.
However, we cannot drain out DPB on new_sequence() unconditionally,
because there is a case where decoder should drop decoded pictures
if NoOutputOfPriorPicsFlag is set.
To detect NoOutputOfPriorPicsFlag before the new_sequence() call,
this patch splits decoding process into two path, one for nal unit parsing
in order to detect NoOutputOfPriorPicsFlag and then each nal unit
will be decoded.

It's almost pointless and makes little sense as subclass might
want to modify refcount of the object or so. And all subclasses
are already casting them to non-const version as well.
In a general sense, we need to avoid passing refcounted object
with const qualifier.

Rework gstvp9{decoder|statefulparser} to optionally parse compressed headers.
The information in these headers might be needed for accelerators
downstream, so optionally parse them if downstream requests it.

There are a lot of info in the mpeg2's sequence(also including ext
display_ext and scalable_ext). We need to notify the subclass about
its change, but not all the changes should trigger a drain(), which
may change the output picture order. For example, the matrix changes
in sequence header does not change the decoder context and so no need
to trigger a drain().

Some decoding APIs support delayed output for performance reasons.
One example would be to request decoding for multiple frames and
then query for the oldest frame in the output queue.
This also increases throughput for transcoding and improves seek
performance when supported by the underlying backend.
Introduce support in the mpeg2 base class, so that backends that
support render delays can actually implement it.

Downstream might need the start code offset when decoding.
Previously this computation would be scattered in multiple sites. This
is error prone, so move it to the base class. Subclasses can access
slice->sc_offset directly without computing the address themselves
knowing that the size will also take the start code into account.

Introduces a `libraries` variable that contains all libraries in a
list with the following format:
``` meson
libraries = [
[pkg_name, {
'lib': library_object
'gir': [ {full gir definition in a dict } ]
],
....
]
```
It therefore refactors the way we build the gir so that we can reuse the
same information to build them against 'gstreamer-full' in gst-build
when linking statically

The GST_VIDEO_DECODER_ERROR() should be used only for robust/error-resilient
decoding purpose. Any other error codes such as not-negotiated or flushing
should be returned without modified for upstream to be able to handle
it immediately. (for example, application might want to try other
decoder element on not-negotiated)

boolean return value is not sufficient for representing the reason
of error in most cases. For instance, any errors around new_sequence()
would mean negotiation error, not just *ERROR*.
And some subclasses will allocate buffer/memory/surface on new_picture()
but it could be failed because of expected error, likely flushing
