Since bins can set the context of their children elements, the set_context()
vmethod shouldn't call bus messages post methods, since it locks the parent
object, the bin, which might be already locked, leading to a deadlock.

If the allocation query received from downstream doesn't handle GstVideoMeta but
it requests memory:DMABuf caps feature, it's incomplete, so we rather reject the
negotiation.
Both in base decoder, base transform and compositor.

This is a simplification of the venerable
gst_va_base_dec_get_preferred_format_and_caps_features() function, which
predates since gstreamer-vaapi. It's used to select the format and the
capsfeature to use when setting the output state. It was complex and hard to
follow. This refactor simplifies a lot the algorithm.
The first thing to remove _downstream_has_video_meta() since, most of the time
it will be called before the caps negotiation, and allocation queries make sense
only after caps negotiation. It might work during renegotiation but, in that
case, caps feature change is uncommon. Better a simple and common approach.
Also, for performance, instead of dealing with caps features as strings, GQuarks
are used.
The refactor works like this:
1. If peer pad returns any caps, the returned caps feature is system memory and
looks for a proper format in the allowed caps.
2. The allowed caps are traversed at most 3 times: one per each valid caps
feature. First VAMemory, later DMABuf, and last system memory. The first to
match in allowed caps is picked, and the first format matching with the
chroma is picked too.
Notice that, right now, using playbin videoconvert never return any.

When creating a new VA pool set config size to zero because it's not used.
Also, given the potential different sizes from software buffer pools and VA
buffer pools, this patch handle that potential different values.

The current way only selects the best video format from the first
structure of the caps. The caps like:
video/x-raw(memory:VAMemory),drm-format=(string)NV12; \
video/x-raw(memory:VAMemory),format=(string){ NV12, Y210 }
Will just choose NV12 as the result, even the bitstream is 10 bits.

Otherwise application would not be able to know matching element
for wanted device. Typical use case of the read-only device path
(DXGI Adapter LUID, CUDA device index, etc) property is that
application enumerates physical devices and then selects matching
GStreamer element (in null state) via device path property.

This vmethod can be used by decoders with the same VA decoder reopen logic:
same profile, chroma, width and height.
Also a new public method called gst_va_base_dec_set_output_state() with the
common GStreamer code for setting the output state, which is always called by
the negotiate vmethod.
In order to do this refactoring, new variables in vabasedec have to be populated
by the decoders:
* width and height define the resolution set in VA decoder. In the case of H264
would be de coded_width and codec_height, or max_width and max_height in AV1.
* output_info is the downstream video info used for negotiation in
gst_va_base_dec_set_output_state().
* input_state, from codec parent class shall be also held by vabasedec

This patch adds general mechanism for handling specific hacks. In this
case for jpeg decoder in i965 driver, which cannot create surfaces
with fourcc specified.
From jpeg decoder to the allocator, which creates the surfaces,
there's a non-simple path: basedec pseudo-class adds a hacks guint32
which will be set by actual elements (vajpegdec, in this case) and
basedec will always set the hack to the allocator when the allocator
is instantiated.

Currently, video format is decided with downstream caps intersection,
but that's not correct since chroma is not considered. The video
decoders have to decide the output format given the used chroma, not
by the downstream caps negotiation.
This patch changes that. Still, caps feature is selected by caps
negotiation, then, with the preferred caps feature, the output format
is search within that caps feature.

If the stream chroma doesn't match with any video format in the source
caps template (generated from va config surface formats) instead of
return unknown, return the first available format in the template,
assuming that the driver would be capable to do color conversions.

Instead of using a hard-coded list of preferred formats according the
chroma type, now if now caps are pre-negotiated, from template caps
will choose the first format with the same chroma type. If
pre-negotiated, then it will choose the first format, with same chroma
type, from the first caps structure.
Also all the decoders will check if GST_VIDEO_FORMAT_UNKNOWN is
returned, failing the negotiation.

Added GstVaFeature enum type, and new parameter for VA allocator's
set_format() and get_format(). Also added a new parameter in VA pool
gst_va_pool_new_with_config() and
gst_buffer_pool_config_set_va_allocation_params().
This new parameter will define if derived images will by used for
buffer mapping.

In order to other plugins use gstva objects, such as allocators and buffer
pools, this merge request move them from the va plugin to the gstva library.
This objects are not exposed in <gst/va/gstva.h> since they are not expected
to be used by users, only by plugin implementators.
Because of the surface copy design, which is used to implement allocator's
mem_copy() virtual function, depends on the vafilter, which is kept inside
the plugin, memory copy through VAPosproc is disabled and removed temporarly.
Also added some missing parameter validation.

Untabifying header file.
The logging category was moved from the plugin generic category to
the display category. It can argue that video formats hacks are
display dependant.
Added validations for input parameters.

Using GstBaseDec hack to access the parent_object of each element in
the element itself is a bit fragile. It would be better to keep its
own parent object as the usual global variable. It would make it
resistant to code changes.
The GstBaseDec macro to access the parent object now it's internal to
base decoder.
