Ayaka 27310365d5 v4l2: Add Video Encoder support
This implements H264 encoding support using generic V4L2 interface. It is
reported to work with Samsung MFC driver, IXM.6 CODA driver and
Qualcomm mainline Venus driver. Other platform should be supported as
none of this work is platform specific.

The implementation consist of a GstV4l2VideoEnc base class, which
implements the core streaming functionality. This base class is implemented
by GstV4l2H264Enc class that implements the caps negotiation specific to
H264 profiles and level. This implementation supports hardware with multiple
H264 encoder. Though, to make it simplier to use, the first discovered H264
encoder will be named v4l2h264enc. Other encoder found during discovery will
have a unique name like v4l2video0h264enc.

This work is the combined work of multiple developpers in the last 3
years. Thanks to all of the contributors:

v4l2 plugins
============

The idea is a bit the same as the idea for the v4l1 plugins. We want
one generic v4l2element, and a few child objects (probably only two:
v4l2src and v4l2sink):

                /-------- v4l2src
v4l2element ---=
                \-------- v4l2sink

Both v4l2src and v4l2sink have a uncompressed and a compressed
recording-/playback-mode. Since this is all part of v4l2, the 'client'
of these elements, i.e. an application using v4l2src/v4l2sink, will
hardly notice this. All capsnego stuff is done inside, and the plugin
knows which formats are compressed and which are not.

Please note that the v4l1 and the v4l2 plugins are *not* compatible
concerning properties. Naming has been kept the same where possible,
but in some cases, properties had to be removed or added to make
full use of v4l2.
