This is used for optimize frame drop issue. Some video streams such as av1
contains decode-only frames. These frames are handled by decoder but not show
by display, which will cause input frame count unmatch the output frame count.
After collecting more decoder only frame, it will cause error report "so many
frame droped". So attach the flag GST_BUFFER_FLAG_DECODE_ONLY with the input
buffer, the v4l2videodecoder can further handle the decode-only buffer in
output list.

We get loads of warnings when parsing videos from users:
gsth264parser.c:1115:gst_h264_parser_parse_user_data_unregistered: No more remaining payload data to store
gsth264parse.c:646:gst_h264_parse_process_sei:<h264parse0> failed to parse one or more SEI message
Those are raised because of unregistered SEI without user data.
The spec does not explicitly state that unregistered SEI needs to have
data and I suppose the UUID by itself can carry valuable information.
FFmpeg also parses and exposes such SEI so there is no reason for us no
too as well.

A GST_VIDEO_FORMAT_* could be mapped to only one pair of DRM_FORMAT_*
and DRM_FORMAT_MOD_*. Until now only DRM_FORMAT_MOD_LINEAR was used.
To be able to add other modifiers add a modidier field in struct FormatMap.
Create a helper functions the allow turning a GstVideoFormat into a pair
of DRM fourcc and modifier and vis-versa.

Combine the appsrc and appsink settings into one place and ensure that
the appsrc will output a TIME segment, to avoid incorrect segment format
criticals in some situations.
The D3D11 path was already setting the segment format correctly.

By setting the earliest time to timestamp + 2 * diff there would be a difference
of 1 * diff between the current clock time and the earliest time the element
would let through in the future. If e.g. a frame is arriving 30s late at the
sink, then not just all frames up to that point would be dropped but also 30s of
frames after the current clock time.

release_frame() can be useful for manually dropping frames without posting QoS messages like finish_frame() would.
Matches the same kind of API on the decoder side of things.
Modifies the behaviour of release_frame() to make sure events from released frames are stored as 'pending'
and pushed before the next non-dropped frame. This is needed because now release_frame() can be called outside of
finish_frame(), so we would potentially just lose events and bad things would happen.
drop_frame() was also added to match the decoder API. It functions almost identically to finish_frame() without a buffer
attached to the frame, except instead of immediately pushing the frame's events, it will store them as pending.

On practice a failure happened due to a race condition, the instance
already have been freed, but it could also happen if the instance
would be null.
Instead of crashing this sanity check is a more suitable option,
since with G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings it will crash too.

This allows metas to be serialized to be transmitted or stored. This is
intended to be used for example by gdppay or unixfdsink.
Implemented on GstCustomMeta, GstVideoMeta, GstReferenceTimestampMeta,
and GstAudioMeta.

By using the gst_caps_set_simple() to set the format on all structures, the
compositor may create invalid combinations as the caps may contain passthrough
caps. Avoid this issue by intersecting the resul with its original.

Adds list of formats that should be used by element in needs to passthrough
video. It contains the full list of video format plus DMA_DRM format
and will be extended in the future as needed. This patches includes 3 new
symbols:
- GST_VIDEO_FORMATS_ANY_STR
- GST_VIDEO_FORMATS_ANY
- gst_video_formats_any()
The last one can be used by bindings or for code that prefers having
GstVideoFormat values instead of strings.
