Check if the requested profile in source caps, is supported by the
VA driver. If it is not, an info log message is send saying that
another (compatible?) profile will be used.

The specified caps in gst_video_encoder_set_output_state() function
arguments should not contain any resolution, pixel-aspect-ratio,
framerate, codec-data et al. Those rather should be set through the
returned GstVideoCodecState. This means that output caps creation
could be delayed until before gst_video_encoder_finish_frame() is
called.
This greatly simplifies the GstVideoEncoder::set_format() callback
by the way.
Update MPEG-2 and H.264 encode elements to cope with the new core
libgstvaapi properties API. i.e. all configurable properties are now
directly handled at the GstVaapiEncoder level.
Besides, this also makes sure to not use or modify the GstVaapiEncoder
private definitions directly. Private data need to remain private.

Constify pointers wherever possible. Drop unused variables, and use
consistent variable names. Fix gst_vaapiencode_h264_allocate_buffer()
to correctly report errors, especially when in-place conversion from
bytestream to avcC format failed.
Move "rate-control" mode and "bitrate" properties to the GstVaapiEncode
base class. The actual range of supported rate control modes is currently
implemented as a plug-in element hook. This ought to be determined from
the GstVaapiEncoder object instead, i.e. from libgstvaapi.
Add a GST_VAAPIENCODE_CAST() helper to avoid run-time checks against
the GObject type system. We are guaranteed to only deal with the same
plug-in element object.
Add GstVaapiEncodeH264 element object. The actual plug-in element
is called "vaapiencode_h264".
Valid properties:
- rate-control: rate control mode (default: none)
- bitrate: desired bitrate in kbps (default: auto-calculated)
- key-period: maximal distance between two key frames (default: 30)
- num-slices: number of slices per frame (default: 1)
- max-bframes: number of B-frames between I and P (default: 0)
- min-qp: minimal quantizer (default: 1)
- init-qp: initial quantizer (default: 26)
