If either dimension is out-of-bounds, then scale window to fit the
display size, even if the output is to be rotated. Use the standard
gst_video_sink_center_rect() function to center and scale the window
wrt. the outer (display) bounds.
Keep VA surface proxy associated with the surface that is currently
being displayed. This makes sure that surface is not released back
to the pool of surfaces free to use for decoding. This is necessary
with VA driver implementations that support rendering to an overlay
pipe. Otherwise, there could be cases where we are decoding into a
surface that is being displayed, hence some flickering.
Some VA drivers (e.g. EMGD) can have completely random values for initial
display attributes. So, try to improve the discovery process to check the
initial display attribute values actually fall within valid bounds. If not,
try to reset those to some sensible values like the default value reported
through vaQueryDisplayAttributes().
Use g_object_class_install_properties() to install GstVaapiDisplay properties.
It is useful to maintain properties as GParamSpec so that to be able to raise
"notify" signals by id instead of by name in the future.
A rendering mode can be "overlay" or "texture"'ed blit.
The former mode implies that a VA surface used for rendering can't be
re-used right away for decoding, so the sink shall make provisions to
retain the associated surface proxy until the next surface is to be
displayed.
The latter mode implies that the VA surface is implicitly copied to an
intermediate backing store, or back buffer of a frame buffer, so the
associated surface proxy can be disposed right away.
The VA display attributes are mapped to properties so that to maintain the
GStreamer terminology. Properties are to be identified by name, but internal
functions are available to lookup the property by the actual VA display
attribute type.
decode_current_picture() was converted to return a gboolean instead
of a GstVaapiDecoderStatus, so we were not getting out of the decode
loop as expected, or could cause an error instead.

Integrate the start code prefix in the slice data buffer that is submitted
to the hardware. VA-API specifies that slice_data_offset is the offset to
the first byte of slice data. And, for MPEG-2, slice() data begins with
the slice_start_code. Some VA driver implementations (EMGD) expect this.
This patch allows for regenerating the configure script from a build
directory that is not the actual source directory.

Use g_object_notify_by_pspec() instead of g_object_notify() so that to
avoid a property name lookup. i.e. this makes notifications faster to
the `vaapidecode' element.

Two elements in the luminance quantization table were wrong. So,
gst_jpeg_get_default_quantization_tables() now reconstructs tables
in zig-zag order from the standard ones (Tables K.1 and K.2).
... instead of having them pre-calculated. This saves around 1.5 KB
of data in the DSO but requires gst_jpeg_get_default_huffman_tables()
to do more work. Though, the client application may have to call that
function at most once, only.
This is not useful in practice but for raw performance evaluation when
the sink is invoked with display=drm sync=false. fakesink could also be
used though.
