Even if timecode trak is officially unsupported in non-mov flavors,
some software still supports it, e.g. Final Cut Pro X:
https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/technotes/tn2174/_index.html
The user might still expect to see the timecode information in the
non-mov file despite it being officially unsupported , because other
software e.g. QuickTime will create a timecode trak even in mp4 files.
Furthermore, software that supports timecode trak in non-mov flavors
will also display the file duration in "timecode units" instead of real
clock time, which is not necessarily the same for 29.97 fps and friends.
This might confuse users, who see a different duration for the same
framerate and amount of frames depending on whether the container is mp4
or mov.

The VP Codec Configuration Box (vpcC) contains vp9 profile and
colorimetry information. Especially the profile information might
be useful for downstream to select capable decoder element.
Needed for QuickTime 7 to properly play files.
Also write the clap atom for MOV files always, not only when ProRes is
used as a video codec. It's mandatory for MOV.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777100
It's required for ProRes to work with other software.
It is also in the MP4 standard, but inventing values here seems a bit
tricky for the general case and it does not really give any extra
information.

10 FourCCs generated with GST_MAKE_FOURCC() in gstqtmux.c and atoms.c
already exist in fourcc.h. Don't duplicate these and use them directly.
Plus moving 6 to fourcc.h, to centralize them all.
This commit adds support for ISOBMFF Common Encryption (cenc), as
defined in ISO/IEC 23001-7. It uses a GstProtection event to
pass the contents of PSSH boxes to downstream decryptor elements
and attached GstProtectionMeta to each sample.

Adds AC-3 muxing support. It is defined for mp4 and 3gp formats.
One extra feature that was added was the ability to add extension
atoms after set_caps as the AC-3 extension atom needs some data
that has to be extracted from the stream itself and is not
present on caps.
The MPEG-A format provides an extension to the ISO base media
file format to store stereoscopic content encoded with different
codecs like H.264 and MPEG-4:2. The stereo video media information(svmi)
atom declares the presence and storage method for the video.
Stereo video information for MPEG-A can also be supplied through
the 'stvi' atom (ref: ISO/IEC_14496-12, ISO/IEC_23000-11), which
is not implemented in this patch.
Also missing is support for stereo video encoded as separate video tracks
for now.

Parse the 'sidx' atom and update the total duration according to the
parser result. The isoff parser code is imported from
gst-plugins-bad's dashdemux and a gst_isoff_sidx_parser_add_data()
function was factored out of the gst_isoff_sidx_parser_add_buffer()
function.

Amendment 2 of ISO/IEC 14496-15 (AVC file format) is defining a new
structure for fragmented MP4 called "avc3". The principal difference
between AVC1 and AVC3 is the location of the codec initialisation
data (e.g. SPS, PPS). In AVC1 this data is placed in the initial
MOOV box (moov.trak.mdia.minf.stbl.stsd.avc1) but in AVC3 this data
goes in the first sample of every fragment (i.e. the first sample in
each mdat box). The principal reason for avc3 is to make it easier
for client implementations, because it removes the requirement to
insert the SPS+PPS in to the decoder pipeline every time there is a
representation change.
This commit adds support for the "avc3" atom, which is almost identical
to the "avc1" atom, except it does not contain any SPS or PPS data.
