The type detection would lead to assertion as it would try
to create a device without having found any type for it. It
also didn't detect MPLANE devices properly.
The monitor sets the object->element object as a GstObject. This
works for debug traces, but will assert for ELEMENT_ERROR. This
was the only case where that could happen. Add a check for that.
After switching to using V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS we lost support for
multiplanar device types. After some research, it looks like
vcap.capabilities treated the multiplanar flag of output and capture
devices equally, but not the new device_caps.

A typo in gst_v4l2_probe_and_register() caused a build error when building
with --enable-v4l2-probe. Fixing it.
gstv4l2.c: In function 'gst_v4l2_probe_and_register':
gstv4l2.c:150:25: error: 'struct v4l2_capability' has no member named 'capabilitites'
device_caps = vcap.capabilitites;
The same physical device can export multiple devices. In
this case, the capabilities field now contains a union of
all caps available from all exported V4L2 devices alongside
a V4L2_CAP_DEVICE_CAPS flag that should be used to decide
what capabilities to consider. In our case, we need the
ones from the exported device we are using.

gst_v4l2_clear_error() doesn't work like g_clear_error(), it
doesn't NULLify the pointer, so set freed debug string to NULL
so it doesn't get freed again if gst_v4l2_clear_error() is
called twice on the error.

Instead of completely getting rid of the input buffer, copy
the metadata, the flags and the timestamp into an empty buffer.
This way the decoder base class can copy that information again
to the output buffer.

This is to allow returning an error that can easily be sent as
message to the application if the element needs it. Using this
also allow ignoring errors.

v4l2src will renegotiate only if the format have changed. As of now,
it's not possible to change the allocationw without resetting the
camera. To avoid unwanted side effect, simply keep the old allocation
if no renegotiation is taking place. This fixes assertion and possible
failures in USERPTR or DMABUF import mode (when using downstream pools).

To change pixel aspect ratio from DAR to PAR, the necessary scaling factor
is DAR/PAR, not DAR*PAR.
For good measure, add debug output similar to the fixed-width and
fixed-height cases.

Instead of relying on the default colorimetry chosen by
gst_video_info_set_format(), set info.colorimetry from the
values returned by G_FMT. This allows decoders to propagate
their input colorimetry downstream.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766383
Move the extraction of colorimetry parameters from struct v4l2_format and the
setting of the identity matrix for RGB formats into the function to avoid code
duplication.

gst_v4l2_probe_caps() returns the coded size, not the visible size. Subtract
the known padding from probed caps with the coded size before using them as
filter for caps negotiation with downstream elements.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766382
The gst_v4l2_object_acquire_format() function is used by v4l2videodec to obtain
the currently set capture format. Since G_FMT returns the coded size, the
visible size needs to be obtained from the compose rectangle in order to
negotiate it with downstream elements. The G_CROP call hasn't worked on mem2mem
capture queues for a long time. Instead use the G_SELECTION call to obtain the
compose rectangle and only fall back to G_CROP for ancient kernels.

On modern kernels, the G/S_FMT ioctls will always fail using
V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_OVERLAY with VFL_DIR_TX (e.g. real overlay out drivers)
since this is not the intented use (rather rx, according to v4l2 API doc).
Probably this is why the Video Output Overlay interface was created, so if
the driver advertises it we might as well use.
For old kernels (pre 2012) the old way might still work so keeping this for
compatibility.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=761165
Support for the updated V4L2_PIX_FMT_XRGB555 was added in commit
2538fee2fd however, when setting the format
for use in v4l2 ioctls, the old deprecated format is still used. Convert
this to the new accepted format type, as the preferred format.

v4l2src can cause an "infinite message loop" when a base control exposed as a
property is not provided by the device. In these cases, if in the warning message
handling for the bus, the GST_DEBUG_BIN_TO_DOT_FILE* category of functions are used,
the src lookup causes a new warning to be posted on the bus, causing a loop.
This patch changes the warning for these controls so they are not posted on the bus.

A device can support more than one colorspace for a given image
dimension and pixel format. So we have to probe all the supported
colorspace and not only rely on the default one. Otherwise we could end
up with negotiation failure if the caps colorimetry field don't match
the v4l2 device default one even if the v4l2 could support such
colorimetry.
This patch enable probing if colorspace for both capture and output
device. It really makes sense for output device since the colorspace
shall be set by the application and a little less for capture device
which, at the moment, shall provide the colorspace; ie: the v4l2
specification seems to not take into account the fact that a capture
device could do colorspace conversion.
As a side effet, probing takes some times and so sligthly delay v4l2
initialization. Note that this patch only probe colorspace and not all
colorspace, matrix, transfer and range combination to avoid taking too
much time, especially with low-speed devices as full probing do 1782
ioctl.

gst_v4l2_object_get_caps_info() always return V4L2_PIX_FMT_SBGGR8
for all bayer formats. This is obviously broken if the device use
another ordering. Fix this by properly reading the format parameter.

Replicate V4L2_MAP_QUANTIZATION_DEFAULT macro behavior.
At #v4l it was described that documentation might be wrong and that
we should trust this macro instead.

Didn't know which one to choose between queuing and queueing, so I picked
the one with the biggest amount of vowels in a row ;-P (both are
acceptable apparently)
This time, check if it's an RGB format and sets the transformation
matrix to identity. The rest of the colorimetry information is
meaningfull and shall be kept.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=759624
Use the new primaries and transfer function for Adobe RGB.
Explicitly list the colorimetry instead of using the default GStreamer
ones. The defaults for BT2020, for example, do not match.
Explicitly set the matrix of SRGB to RGB.
