As part of this also change the default bitrate value to 0. The default
value was 256000 previously. In reality, if the property was not set the
bitrate value would be scaled according to the resolution which is not
very intuitive behavior. It is better to use 0 for this purpose. Now
together with newly introduced property "bits-per-pixel" 0 means to
assign the bitrate according to resolution/framerate.
The default bitrates are now
- 1.2Mbps for VP8 720p@30fps
- 0.8Mbps for VP9 720p@30fps
and scaled accordingly for different resolutions/framerates.
Previously the default bitrate was also not scaled according to the
framerate but only took the resolution into account.
This also fixes the side effect of setting bitrate to 0. Previously
encoder would not produce any data at all.
Addition from Sebastian Dröge <sebastian@centricular.com> to assume
30fps if no framerate is given in the caps instead of not calculating
any bitrate at all.

For VP8 it's possible to signal width or height to be 0, but it does
not make sense to do so. For VP9 it's impossible. Hence, we most
likely have a corrupt stream. Trying to negotiate caps downstream with
either width or height as 0 will fail with something like
gst_video_decoder_negotiate_default: assertion 'GST_VIDEO_INFO_WIDTH (&state->info) != 0' failed

We don't do any blending by ourselves since a while now.
Note that this is a regression in "supported" formats: previously
ARGB64 was supported, for example, but in practice it caused blending to
not take place at all.
Without a qmlglsink, we need to retrieve the window system display
ourselves rather than relying solely on qmlglsink to have priority on
the choice of display.
deleting a QOpenGLFrameBufferObject needs to occur on the same thread it
was created on in order to actually free the relevant resources
immediately. Otherwise, they will be queued for deletion and not freed
until the associated QOpenGLContext is destroyed.
By explictly including QtGui/qopengl.h we force the code path that
defines GLsync in the Qt-specific way. Without that, some platforms
failed to compile the qmlgl plugin, since neither Qt nor gstreamer
defined GLsync then, leading to e.g.:

Disable session sharing and cookie jar when cookies property is set.
The cookie jar actually replaces or removes any existing Cookie header
set on the message, so the cookies property was effectively being
ignored. There doesn't appear to be a way to inject the cookies into the
jar without having to specify matching domains etc., so it's not
possible to simulate the old behaviour of unconditionally sending the
cookies with all messages, besides simply disabling the cookie jar.
In Google webrtc, the setting VP8E_SET_STATIC_THRESHOLD is set to 1
(except when the content is known to be static very often in which
case it is set to 100, i.e. when sharing screen with Google Hangouts).
The cpu usage drops a lot when using 1 for above setting because it
allows the encoder to skip static/low content blocks. The current
0 default value uses too much cpu and confuses the user regarding
the cpu usage expectations. User expects vp8enc to use low cpu by
default.
