With the asynchronous slice decoding, we only queue up to 2 slices
per frames. That side effect is that now we are dequeuing bitstream
buffers in both decoding and presentation order. This would lead to
a bitstream buffer from a previous frame being dequeued instead of
the expected last slice buffer and lead to us trying to queue an
already queued bitstream buffer.
We now fix this by tracking pending requests. As request are executed
in decoding order, we marking a request done, we can effectively
dequeue bitstream buffer from all previous request, as they have been
executed already.

The decoder is not being access from multiple threads, instead it is
always protected by the streaming lock. For this reason, a
GstAtomicQueue for the request pool is overkill and may even introduce
unneeded overhead. Use a GstQueueArray in replacement, the
GstQueueArray is a good fit since the number of item is predictable and
unlikely to vary at run-time.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-bad/-/merge_requests/1395>
In slice mode, we'll do one request per slice. In order to recycle
bitstream buffer, and not run-out, wait for the last pending
request to complete and mark it done.
We only wait after having queued the current slice in order to reduce
that potential driver starvation and maintain performance (using dual
buffering).

New plugin with an element for H.264 decoding with VA-API. This novel
approach, different from gstreamer-vaapi, uses gstcodecs library for
state handling.
The code is expected to looks cleaner because it uses VA-API without
further layers or wrappers.
* It uses the first supported DRM device as default VA display (other
displays will be supported through user's GstContext)
* Requires libva >= 1.6
* No multiview/stereo profiles neither interlaced streams because
gstcodecs doesn't handle them yet
* It is incompatible with gstreamer-vaapi
* Even if memory:VAMemory is exposed, it is not handled yet by any
other element
* Caps templates are generated dynamically querying VAAPI, but YV12
and I420 are added for system memory caps because they seem to be
supported for all the drivers when downloading frames onto main
memory, as they are used by xvimagesink and others, avoiding color
conversion.
* Surfaces aren't bounded to context, so they can grow beyond the DBP
size, allowing smooth reverse playback.
* There isn't yet error handling and recovery.
* 10-bit H.264 streams aren't supported by libva.

Current shader code is not compatible with HLSL profile "ps_4_0_level_9_3"
or lower. So d3dcompiler cannot compile our shader code in that case.
Note that VirtualBox is one known driver which doesn't support currently

This sequence of event/data flow might happen
1) Initially we have one pending output event
1-1) Then, process the pending output data
2) No pending input event, then we should wait new pending input event
2-1) Wakeup by new pending event (but it's pending output event)
In above case, MFT will not report new pending input event
if pending output is not processed.

Add a new wasapi implementation mainly to support UWP application.
Basically the core logic of this plugin is almost identical to
existing wasapi plugin, but main target is Windows 10 (+ UWP).
Since this plugin uses WinRT APIs, this plugin most likely might not
work Windows 8 or lower.
Compared with existing wasapi plugin, additional features of this plugin are
* Fully compatible with both Windows 10 desktop and UWP application
* Supports automatic stream routing (auto fallback when device was removed)
* Support device level mute/volume control
But some features of existing wasapi plugin are not implemented
in this plugin yet
* Exclusive streaming mode is not supported
* Loopback feature is not implemented
* Cross-compile is not possible with current mingw toolchain
(meaning that MSVC and Windows 10 SDK are required to build this plugin)

d3d11videosink has an advantage over d3dvideosink, such as

* HDR rendering with 10-bit format/swapchain support

* User can select target GPU device
And old d3dvideosink's functionality (e.g., navigation event, overlaycomposition)

Add MediaFoundation AAC encoder element.
Before Windows 10, mono and stereo channels were supported audio channels
configuration by AAC encoder MFT. However, on Windows 10,
5.1 channels support was introduced.
To expose correct range of support format by this element
whatever the OS version is, this element will enumerate
all the supported format by the AAC encoder MFT
and then will configure sink/src templates while plugin init.

New video capture implementation using WinRT Media APIs for UWP app.
Due to the strict permission policy of UWP, device enumeration and
open should be done via new WinRT APIs and to get permission from users,
it will invoke permission dialog on UI.
Strictly saying, this implementation is not a part of MediaFoundation
but structurally it's very similar to MediaFoundation API.
So we can avoid some code duplication by adding this implementation
into MediaFoundation plugin.
This implementation requires UniversalApiContract version >= 6.0
which is part of Windows 10 version 1803 (Redstone 4)

The Cedrus driver would otherwise choose 1KB buffer, which is too small.
This follows what some drivers do, which is simply to use the size a
packed raw image would have. Specifications do not really guaranty any minimum

This adds support for slice based decoder like the Allwinner/Cedrus driver. In
order to keep things efficient, we hold the sink buffer until we reach the end
of the picture. Note that as we don't know which one is last, we lazy queue the
slices. This effectively introduces one slice latency.

GstD3D11ColorConverter implementation is able to rescale video as well.

This commit does the following things to fix compilation on FreeBSD:
1. Add required typedefs to linux/types-compat.h.
2. Remove unnecessary include linux/ioctl.h and replace linux/types.h
with linux/types-compat.h. Both files do not exist on FreeBSD.
3. Check the header including makedev macro. FreeBSD does not have
sys/sysmacros.h, and including it unconditionally causes error.

In section 9.3.4 a), segment_feature_mode have 0 for absolute and 1 for delta,
while in 19.2, it says the opposite. But the reference code, which usually
rules over the text state that 1 means absolute:
if (hdr->update_data)
{
hdr->abs = bool_get_bit(bool);
And uses it with that meaning to decide weither to override the existing value
or just add the detla. This fixes multiple decoding issues.

Introduce GstH264Decoder based Nvidia H.264 decoder element.
Similar the element factory name of to v4l2 stateless codec,
this element can be configured with factory name "gstnvh264sldec".
Note that "sl" in the name stands for "stateless"
For now, existing nvh264dec covers more profile and formats
(e.g., interlaced stream) than this implementation.
However, this implementation allows us to control lower level
parameters such as decoded picture buffer management and therefore
we can get a chance to improve performance in terms of latency.

Too many decode surface would waste GPU memory. Also it seems to be
introducing additional latency depending on stream. Since nvcodec
sdk version 9.0, CUVID parser API has been providing the minimum
required number of surface. By using it, we can save GPU memory
and reduce possible latency.
We should directly check the values of the `debug` and `optimization`
options instead.
`get_option('buildtype')` will return `'custom'` for most combinations
of `-Doptimization` and `-Ddebug`, but those two will always be set
correctly if only `-Dbuildtype` is set. So we should look at those
options directly.
For the two-way mapping between `buildtype` and `optimization`
+ `debug`, see this table:
