dcc7a94408 encoder: add properties API.
Add interface to communicate configurable properties to the encoder.
This covers both the common ones (rate-control, bitrate), and the
codec specific properties.

70b3600f11 encoder: add bitrate API.
Add gst_vaapi_encoder_set_bitrate() interface to allow the user control
the bitrate for encoding. Currently, changing this parameter is only
valid before the first frame is encoded. Should the value be modified
afterwards, then GST_VAAPI_ENCODER_STATUS_ERROR_OPERATION_FAILED is
returned.

a24c52e4d0 encoder: add rate control API.
Add gst_vaapi_encoder_set_rate_control() interface to request a new
rate control mode for encoding. Changing the rate control mode is
only valid prior to encoding the very first frame. Afterwards, an
error ("operation-failed") is issued.

b864d1f71a encoder: fix computation of max coded buffer size.
Fix coded buffer size for each codec. A generic issue was that the
number of macroblocks was incorrectly computed. The second issue was
specific to MPEG-2 were the max number of bits per macroblock, and
as defined by the standard, was incorrectly mapped to the (lower)
H.264 requirement. i.e. 4608 bits vs. 3200 bits limit.

fd9c855f14 encoder: simplify VA context initialization process.
Change get_context_info() into a set_context_info() function that
initializes common defaults into the base class, thus allowing the
subclasses to specialize the context info further on.

The set_context_info() hook is also the location where additional
context specific data could be initialized. At this point, we are
guaranteed to have valid video resolution size and framerate. i.e.
gst_vaapi_encoder_set_format() was called beforehand.

2f5e5f0784 encoder: clean-ups and document public APIs.
Clean public APIs up so that to better align with the decoder APIs.
Most importantly, gst_vaapi_encoder_get_buffer() is changed to only
return the VA coded buffer proxy. Also provide useful documentation
for the public APIs.

26726b18fc encoder: avoid extra allocations of GstVaapiEncoderSyncPic objects.
Kill GstVaapiEncoderSyncPic objects that are internally and temporarily
allocated. Rather, associate a GstVaapiEncPicture to a coded buffer
through GstVaapiCodedBufferProxy user-data facility.

Besides, use a GAsyncQueue to maintain a thread-safe queue object of
coded buffers.

Partial fix for the following report:

038149b69b encoder: refactor status codes.
Drop obsolete or unused status codes. Align some status codes with the
decoder counterparts.

8ecc35ecf2 encoder: fix subclassing process.
Fix the GstVaapiEncoderClass parent class type. Make sure to validate
subclass hooks as early as possible, i.e. in gst_vaapi_encoder_init(),
thus avoiding useless run-time checks. Also simplify the subclass
initialization process to be less error prone.

0fb7c60508 encoder: rework GstVaapiCodedBuffer and related proxy.
Refactor the GstVaapiCodedBuffer APIs so that to more clearly separate
public and private interfaces. Besides, the map/unmap APIs should not
be exposed as is but appropriate accessors should be provided instead.

* GstVaapiCodedBuffer: VA coded buffer abstraction
- gst_vaapi_coded_buffer_get_size(): get coded buffer size.
- gst_vaapi_coded_buffer_copy_into(): copy coded buffer into GstBuffer

* GstVaapiCodedBufferPool: pool of VA coded buffer objects
- gst_vaapi_coded_buffer_pool_new(): create a pool of coded buffers of
  the specified max size, and bound to the supplied encoder

* GstVaapiCodedBufferProxy: pool-allocated VA coded buffer object proxy
- gst_vaapi_coded_buffer_proxy_new_from_pool(): create coded buf from pool
- gst_vaapi_coded_buffer_proxy_get_buffer(): get underlying coded buffer
- gst_vaapi_coded_buffer_proxy_get_buffer_size(): get coded buffer size

Rationale: more optimized transfer functions might be provided in the
future, thus rendering the map/unmap mechanism obsolete or sub-optimal.

8174a35737 Add initial infrastructure for video encoding.
Add initial API for video encoding: only basic interfaces and small
encoder objects are implemented so far.
