From the spec (chapter 34, v1.3.283):
````
UNORM: the components are unsigned normalized values in the range [0, 1]
SRGB: the R, G and B components are unsigned normalized value that represent
values using sRGB nonlinear encoding, while the A component (if one
exists) is a regular unsigned normalized value
```
The difference is the storage encoding, the first one is aimed for image
transfers, while the second is for shaders, mostly in the swapchain stage in the
pipeline, and it's done automatically if needed [1].
As far as I have checked, other frameworks (FFmpeg, GTK+), when import or export
images from/to Vulkan, use exclusively UNORM formats, while SRGB formats are
ignored.
My conclusion is that Vulkan formats are related on how bits are stored in
memory rather their transfer functions (colorimetry).
This patch does two interrelated changes:
1. It swaps certain color format maps to try first, in both
gst_vulkan_format_from_video_info() and gst_vulkan_format_from_video_info_2(),
the UNORM formats, when comparing its usage, and later check for SRGB.
2. It removes the code that check for colorimetry in
gst_vulkan_format_from_video_info_2(), since it not storage related.

Use of VK_PIPELINE_STAGE_2_ALL_COMMANDS_BIT instead of
specific VK_PIPELINE_STAGE_2_VIDEO_DECODE_BIT_KHR
Fix for VUID-vkCmdPipelineBarrier2-srcStageMask-03849
pDependencyInfo->pImageMemoryBarriers[0].srcStageMask
(VK_PIPELINE_STAGE_2_VIDEO_DECODE_BIT_KHR) is not compatible with
the queue family properties
(VK_QUEUE_GRAPHICS_BIT|VK_QUEUE_COMPUTE_BIT|VK_QUEUE_TRANSFER_BIT|
VK_QUEUE_SPARSE_BINDING_BIT|VK_QUEUE_PROTECTED_BIT) of this
command buffer. The Vulkan spec states: The srcStageMask member
of any element of the pMemoryBarriers, pBufferMemoryBarriers, or
pImageMemoryBarriers members of pDependencyInfo must only
include pipeline stages valid for the queue family that was
used to create the command pool that commandBuffer was allocated
from (
https://www.khronos.org/registry/vulkan/specs/1.3-extensions/
html/vkspec.html#VUID-vkCmdPipelineBarrier2-srcStageMask-03849)
The frame barrier should use a compatible srcStageMask for all
the queues.
Remove reset_pipeline_stage_mask as it is redundant

Since we don't want to expose video decoding API outside of GStreamer, the
header is removed from installation and both source files are renamed as
-private.
The header must remain in gst-libs because is referred by GstVulkanQueue,
which's the decoder factory.

clang does not like the array index assignment without the `=` sign in
it. This is a gnu extension I believe, and adding the sign is proper.
This fixes the following two warnings:

The pool currently defaults to performing a layout transition to
VK_IMAGE_LAYOUT_TRANSFER_DST_OPTIMAL, with some special exceptions for
video usages. This may not be a legal transition depending on the usage.
Provide an API to explicitly control the initial image layout.

An operation is an arbitrary amount of work to be executed on the host, a
device, or an external entity such as a presentation engine.
The purpose of this object is to help on the operation's synchronization
through declaring explicit execution dependencies, and memory dependencies
between two sets of operations defined by the command’s two synchronization
scopes.

While VkPipelineStageFlags is an enum (arguably backed as uint32 in 32bit
platforms), VkPipelineStageFlags2 is a redefinition of guint64; likewise for
VkAccessFlags and VkAccessFlags2.
This patch types both members in GstVulkanBarrierMemoryInfo as guint64 for
compatibility, so it could be used with or without synchronization2 vulkan
extension.

This field is used to store gbooleans (which are ints) but if it's
a :1 bit depth assigning ints to it changes it's value as the only
valid values are -1 and 0.
Make it a guint instead so the cast would be correct.

New vulkan formats don't match the number of planes with the number of memories
attached to the buffer. This patch changes the pattern of using planes for
traverse the memories with the number of attached memories.

It's a generalization of the original gst_vulkan_get_or_create_image_view().
The reason for passing the whole VkImageViewCreateInfo structure rather than
just the missing fields, is because VkImageSubresourceRange and
VkComponentMapping can be different and those are most of VkImageViewCreateInfo.

This is going to be used when the pool is used by a video decoder for
VK_IMAGE_USAGE_VIDEO_DECODE_DST_BIT_KHR, since the frame allocation needs the
VkVideoProfileInfoKHR, and for that here GstCaps is used to wire it.

The specification says:
VUID-vkAllocateMemory-pAllocateInfo-01713
must pAllocateInfo->allocationSize be less than or equal to
VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties::memoryHeaps[memindex].size where memindex =
VkPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties::memoryTypes[pAllocateInfo->memoryTypeIndex].heapIndex
as returned by vkGetPhysicalDeviceMemoryProperties for the VkPhysicalDevice that
device was created from.
Though this can be catch by the validation layer, the requested frame size
depends on the use case so it's better to check this restriction by our code.
This patch also makes use of this new function to find memory type index,
and removes the unused function to find memory type index, which, as GstVulkan is
considered unstable, we can do it.

The purpose of this function is to get more info about the mapped Vulkan format
from the GStreamer format, since they can be multiple Vulkan formats for one
GStreamer format.
Also a Vulkan format may have certain usage and aspects that must be verified.

Originally the opened device only created one queue of one family queue, to say
graphics one. This approach felt short when other queue family is required not
shared with the graphics queue family, for example video decoding.
This new approach proposes to create those queues with supported families. For
now, only video decoding and encoder are created, if they are available.
In order to hold multiple queues opened, an array of VkDeviceQueueCreateInfo is
held along the live the device object, because it's used to traverse or get the
opened queues.
The algorithm to choose which queues create (or open) is to look for the queue
with more family bits, which also supports the one we are requesting, thus
minimizing the number of global queues of a certain family to create.
Nonetheless, the number of queues to open per family is set to be all of them,
widening the possibility of parallelism.
Also, this commit do a cosmetic refactor the assigning the physical device
nearer where it's used.
