The FWHT stateless 'uAPI' was staging and marked explicitly in the
V4L2 specification that it will change and is unstable.
Note that these control IDs were never exported as a public API,
they were only defined at the driver's code.
While not too late, let's rename them is preparation for promoting
the stateless FWHT codec API as a public API.

For historical reasons, stateful codec controls are named

change all control IDs (such as V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_VP8_FRAME_HEADER),

Add menu control for VP9 codec levels. A total of 14 levels are
defined for Profile 0 (8bit) and Profile 2 (10bit). Each level
is a set of constrained bitstreams coded with targeted resolutions,
frame rates, and bitrates.
The definitions have been taken from webm project [1].

Applications are expected to fill V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_H264_SCALING_MATRIX
if a non-flat scaling matrix applies to the picture. This is the case if
SPS scaling_matrix_present_flag or PPS pic_scaling_matrix_present_flag
are set, and should be handled by applications.
On one hand, the PPS bitstream syntax element signals the presence of a
Picture scaling matrix modifying the Sequence (SPS) scaling matrix.
On the other hand, our flag should indicate if the scaling matrix
V4L2 control is applicable to this request.
Rename the flag from PPS_FLAG_PIC_SCALING_MATRIX_PRESENT to
PPS_FLAG_SCALING_MATRIX_PRESENT, to avoid mixing this flag with
bitstream syntax element pic_scaling_matrix_present_flag,
and clarify the meaning of our flag.

The H.264 specification requires in section 7.4.3 "Slice header semantics",
that the following values shall be the same in all slice headers:
pic_parameter_set_id
frame_num
field_pic_flag
bottom_field_flag
idr_pic_id
pic_order_cnt_lsb
delta_pic_order_cnt_bottom
delta_pic_order_cnt[ 0 ]
delta_pic_order_cnt[ 1 ]
sp_for_switch_flag
slice_group_change_cycle
These bitstream fields are part of the slice header, and therefore
passed redundantly on each slice. The purpose of the redundancy
is to make the codec fault-tolerant in network scenarios.
This is of course not needed to be reflected in the V4L2 controls,
given the bitstream has already been parsed by applications.
Therefore, move the redundant fields to the per-frame decode
parameters control (DECODE_PARAMS).
Field 'pic_parameter_set_id' is simply removed in this case,
because the PPS control must currently contain the active PPS.
Syntax elements dec_ref_pic_marking() and those related
to pic order count, remain invariant as well, and therefore,
the fields dec_ref_pic_marking_bit_size and pic_order_cnt_bit_size
are also common to all slices.

Currently, the SLICE_BASED and FRAME_BASED modes documentation
is misleading and not matching the intended use-cases.
Drop non-required fields SLICE_PARAMS 'start_byte_offset' and
DECODE_PARAMS 'num_slices' and clarify the decoding modes in the
documentation.
On SLICE_BASED mode, a single slice is expected per OUTPUT buffer,
and therefore 'start_byte_offset' is not needed (since the offset
to the slice is the start of the buffer).
This mode requires the use of CAPTURE buffer holding, and so
the number of slices shall not be required.
On FRAME_BASED mode, the devices are expected to take care of slice
parsing. Neither SLICE_PARAMS are required (and shouldn't be
exposed by frame-based drivers), nor the number of slices.

The SLICE_PARAMS control is intended for slice-based
devices. In this mode, the OUTPUT buffer contains
a single slice, and so the buffer's plane payload size
can be used to query the slice size.
To reduce the API surface drop the size from the
SLICE_PARAMS control.
A follow-up change will remove other members in SLICE_PARAMS
so we don't need to add padding fields here.

DPB entry PicNum maximum value is 2*MaxFrameNum for interlaced
content (field_pic_flag=1).
As specified, MaxFrameNum is 2^(log2_max_frame_num_minus4 + 4)
and log2_max_frame_num_minus4 is in the range of 0 to 12,
which means pic_num should be a 32-bit field.
The v4l2_h264_dpb_entry struct needs to be padded to avoid a hole,
which might be also useful to allow future uAPI extensions.

Slice header syntax element 'first_mb_in_slice' can point
to the last macroblock, currently the field can only reference
65536 macroblocks which is insufficient for 8K videos.
Although unlikely, a 8192x4320 video (where macroblocks are 16x16),
would contain 138240 macroblocks on a frame.
As per the H264 specification, 'first_mb_in_slice' can be up to
PicSizeInMbs - 1, so increase the size of the field to 32-bits.
Note that v4l2_ctrl_h264_slice_params struct will be modified
in a follow-up commit, and so we defer its 64-bit padding.

The prediction weight parameters are only required under
certain conditions, which depend on slice header parameters.
As specified in section 7.3.3 Slice header syntax, the prediction
weight table is present if:
((weighted_pred_flag && (slice_type == P || slice_type == SP)) || \
(weighted_bipred_idc == 1 && slice_type == B))
Given its size, it makes sense to move this table to its control,
so applications can avoid passing it if the slice doesn't specify it.
Before this change struct v4l2_ctrl_h264_slice_params was 960 bytes.
With this change, it's 188 bytes and struct v4l2_ctrl_h264_pred_weight
is 772 bytes.
