	  avviddec: Fix handling of mixed interlaced content
	  The decoder would rapidly switch between progressive and interleaved
	  output when fed with PAFF / Telecine input.
	  If field order changes, we see a progressive frame after an interleaved
	  one, or we see a repeat field, switch to mixed interlace mode and stay
	  there.

	* ext/libav/gstavvidcmp.c:
	  gst-libav: avvidcmp: set colorimetry on AVFrame
	  Set the colorimetry on AVFrame based on the GstVideoFrame values.
	  This properly maps potential colorimetry information to libav.
	  Furthermore this fixes the avvideocompare element when used with
	  FFmpeg 8.0. When comparing video frames FFmpeg also uses the scale
	  filter. This has been reworked to use a new API [1], which checks
	  that the color primaries and transfer characteristics are not set
	  to RESERVED, which is the default 0 value. This causes the ff_test_fmt
	  function to fail which in turn causes the avvideocompare element to fail.
	  The implementation is copied from gst_ffmpeg_videoinfo_to_context, but
	  the color range has been adopted to also map the unknown range to
	  unspecified, similar to how gst_ffmpeg_videoinfo_to_context maps
	  AVCOL_RANGE_UNSPECIFIED to GST_VIDEO_COLOR_RANGE_UNKNOWN.
	  This was tested with FFmpeg 8.0 and the following sample pipeline:
	  gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=100          \
	  ! video/x-raw,format=NV12                          \
	  ! videobalance brightness=0.005 hue=0.005          \
	  ! avvideocompare method=psnr stats-file=- name=cmp \
	  ! fakesink videotestsrc ! video/x-raw,format=NV12  \
	  ! cmp.
	  Without the patch it doesn't generate any stats output and when called
	  with GST_DEBUG=3 it shows the following errors for each frame:
	  Unsupported input (Operation not supported):
	  fmt:nv12 csp:gbr prim:reserved trc:reserved -> fmt:yuv420p csp:unknown prim:reserved trc:reserved

	* ext/libav/gstavviddec.c:
	  avviddec: Allow stride changes for some decoders
	  The ffmpeg documentation for get_buffer2() states:
	  "Some decoders do not support linesizes changing between frames."
	  For some well known decoders we know that they can.
	  Add a helper function listing those decoders/codecs and allow stride
	  changes for downstream pools in those cases.
	  This notably allows H26x to be used with with udmabuf / the
	  VideoDmabufPool independently of the video resolution, significantly
	  improving performance is various scenarios.
