... and store all parsed values.
We are storing pic_struct_present_flag although it's not part of
this SEI message but GstH264PicTiming includes it to clarify
following syntax values.
In addition to that, by adding CpbDpbDelaysPresentFlag, we don't need to
refer to VUI anymore.
gsth265parser does it already. Although corresponding API of h265parser is
gst_h265_sei_free, _clear suffix is more consistent naming for h264parser
since there are gst_h264_{sps,pps}_clear().
That's the value of NumDeltaPocs[RefRpsIdx] and we might be able to derive
the value from given sps and slice header.
Because well known hardware implementations refer to the value, however,
storing the value makes things easier.
Following is the list of hardware implementations
* DXVA2: ucNumDeltaPocsOfRefRpsIdx
* NVDEC/VDPAU: NumDeltaPocsOfRefRpsIdx
Some hardware decoders, for example Hantro G1, have to be told the
size of the pic_order_cnt related syntax elements pic_order_cnt_lsb,
delta_pic_order_cnt_bottom, delta_pic_order_cnt[0], and
delta_pic_order_cnt[1] in bits.
Some hardware decoders, for example Hantro G1, have to be told the size
of the dec_ref_pic_marking() syntax element in bits. Record the size so
it can be passed on to the hardware.
The calculated size of short_term_ref_pic_set is not a part of
HEVC syntax but the value is used by some stateless decoders
(e.g., vaapi, dxva, vdpau and nvdec) for the purpose of skipping
parsing the syntax by the accelerator.
Add num_ref_idx_active_override_flag and sp_for_switch_flag to
member of GstH264SliceHdr. No reason to hiding them and
some decoder implementations (e.g., DXVA) rely on externally parsed header
data which can be provided by h264parser.
Add a separate epb_cache variable to the codecparser NalReader to
detect Emulation Prevention Bytes separately from the main bit cache.
This fixes problems where the existing logic can mistakenly detect
multiple EPB with a sequence like: 0x00 0x00 0x03 0x00 0x03. In that
case, the 5th byte should not be regarded as an EPB.
3-byte emulation bytes can confuse the current code that skips
bits at the end of an SEI. Use a simpler method that's also
quicker because it skips all remaining bits in one go instead
of 1 bit at a time.
The SPS parsing functions take a parse_vui_param flag
to skip VUI parsing, but there's no indication in the output
SPS struct that the VUI was skipped.
The only caller that ever passed FALSE seems to be the
important gst_h264_parser_parse_nal() function, meaning - so the
cached SPS were always silently invalid. That needs changing
anyway, meaning noone ever passes FALSE.
I don't see any use for saving a few microseconds in
order to silently produce garbage, and since this is still
unstable API, let's remove the parse_vui_param.
The spec calls for pic_timing SEI to be absent unless
there's either a CpbDpbDelaysPresentFlag or
pic_struct_present_flag in the SPS VUI data. If
both those flags are missing, warn.
If parsing an SEI errors out, it might not consume
all bits, leaving extra unparsed data in the reader
that the outer loop then tries to parse as a new
appended SEI.
Skip all the bits if any are left over to avoid
'finding' extra garbage SEI in the parsing.
When parsing SEI that require an SPS, return
GST_H264_PARSER_BROKEN_LINK instead of a generic
parsing error to let callers distinguish
bitstream errors from (expected) missing packets
when resuming decode.
"High Throughput", "Multiview", "Scalable", "3D", "Screen Content Coding",
and "Scalable format range extensions" profiles can be supported
via h265parser APIs now.
The same timing_info will be present at vps or vui.
When the timeing_info is present in the VPS, vui_timing_info
, when present, shall be equal to vps_timing_info, and when
not present, is inferred to be equal to vps_timing_info.
Expose SEI data in the H.264 bitstream parser API and
extract closed captions and other things that are not
specified in the H.264 spec itself in the videoparser.

* Add FIXME for future correction of HRDParames parsing.
Spec. defines that the number of HRDParames could be up to
"vps_num_layer_sets_minus1 + 1" (i.e., 1024).
* Add parsing vps_base_layer_{internal,available}_flag.
* Fix possible invalid vps_extension parsing.
Fixes#798
For each lib we build export its own API in headers when we're
building it, otherwise import the API from the headers.
This fixes linker warnings on Windows when building with MSVC.
The problem was that we had defined all GST_*_API decorators
unconditionally to GST_EXPORT. This was intentional and only
supposed to be temporary, but caused linker warnings because
we tell the linker that we want to export all symbols even
those from externall DLLs, and when the linker notices that
they were in external DLLS and not present locally it warns.
What we need to do when building each library is: export
the library's own symbols and import all other symbols. To
this end we define e.g. BUILDING_GST_FOO and then we define
the GST_FOO_API decorator either to export or to import
symbols depending on whether BUILDING_GST_FOO is set or not.
That way external users of each library API automatically
get the import.
While we're at it, add new GST_API_EXPORT in config.h and use
that for GST_*_API decorators instead of GST_EXPORT.
The right export define depends on the toolchain and whether
we're using -fvisibility=hidden or not, so it's better to set it
to the right thing directly than hard-coding a compiler whitelist
in the public header.
We put the export define into config.h instead of passing it via the
command line to the compiler because it might contain spaces and brackets
and in the autotools scenario we'd have to pass that through multiple
layers of plumbing and Makefile/shell escaping and we're just not going
to be *that* lucky.
The export define is only used if we're compiling our lib, not by external
users of the lib headers, so it's not a problem to put it into config.h
Also, this means all .c files of libs need to include config.h
to get the export marker defined, so fix up a few that didn't
include config.h.
This commit depends on a common submodule commit that makes gst-glib-gen.mak
add an #include "config.h" to generated enum/marshal .c files for the
autotools build.

It is completely legal to have packets with zero sizes.
Zero-sized packet indicates header with only Start Code.
One eg: is user data packet. The patch allows having
GstMpegVideoPacket with zero sizes.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=796477
We need different export decorators for the different libs.
For now no actual change though, just rename before the release,
and add prelude headers to define the new decorator to GST_EXPORT.
Those fields have been introduced in version 2 and later to define new
profiles like the format range extensions profiles (A.3.5).
NOTE: This patch breaks the parser ABI, rebuild needed.

We used to have the same enum to represent H265 profiles and idc values.
Those are no longer the same with extension profiles defined from
version 2 of the spec.
Split those enums so the semantic of each is clearer and we'll be able
to add extension profiles to GstH265Profile.
Also add gst_h265_profile_tier_level_get_profile() to retrieve the
GstH265Profile from the GstH265ProfileTierLevel. It will be used to
implement the detection of extension profiles.

There is nothing in the spec that state that framerate is not valid in
that case. This aligns GStreamer with FFMPEG behaviour for similar
streams.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=793284
According to the vp8 spec, the first partition (size can be derived from
the frame header) should have all compressed header information and we
implemented gst codecparser based on that. But it doesn't seem to be the
case with some of the streams (#792773) and libvpx
works fine because it uses the whole frame size (not the first partition
size) to initialize the bool decoder.

Libraries in -bad are not covered by our API/ABI stability
guarantees, and to the best of our knowledge everyone using
this API has moved to the replacement APIs ages ago.
'extern inline' was added in 2fb76c89 for MSVC (it was just
'inline' before), but all of this doesn't really make sense,
the functions are not going to be inlined anyway, and what
'extern inline' means exactly also appears to depend on the
Cxx standard targetted. Let's just remove the 'extern inline'
entirely. At least gcc6 still emits the exact same code as
before anyway. Fixes compilation/linking with gcc 4.8 as
used on L4T on the TK1.
