/* spice_gst_decoder_queue_frame() queues the SpiceFrame for decoding and

 *
 * 1) frame->data, which contains the compressed frame data, is wrapped in a GstBuffer
 *    (encoded_buffer) which owns the SpiceFrame.
 * 2) A SpiceGstFrame is created to keep track of SpiceFrame (encoded_frame),
 *    and additional metadata among which GStreamer's encoded_buffer the
 *    refcount of which is incremented. The SpiceGstFrame is then pushed into
 *    the decoding_queue.
 *
 * If GstVideoOverlay is used (window handle was obtained successfully at the widget):
 *   3) Decompressed frames will be rendered to widget directly from GStreamer's pipeline
 *      using some GStreamer sink plugin which implements the GstVideoOverlay interface
 *      (last step).
 *   4) As soon as GStreamer's pipeline no longer needs the compressed frame it will
 *      unref the encoded_buffer.
 *   5) Once a decoded buffer arrives to the sink sink_event_probe() will pop
 *      its matching SpiceGstFrame from the decoding_queue and free it using
 *      free_gst_frame(). This will also unref the encoded_buffer which will
 *      allow GStreamer to call spice_frame_free() and free its encoded_frame.
 *
 * Otherwise appsink is used:
 *   3) Once the decompressed frame is available the GStreamer pipeline calls
 *      new_sample() in the GStreamer thread.
 *   4) new_sample() then increments the pending_samples count and calls
 *      schedule_frame().
 *   5) schedule_frame() is called whenever a new frame might need to be
 *      displayed. If that is the case and pending_samples is non-zero it calls
 *      fetch_pending_sample().
 *   6) fetch_pending_sample() grabs GStreamer's latest sample and then calls
 *      get_decoded_frame() which compares the GStreamer's buffer timestamp to
 *      gstframe->encoded_frame->mm_time to match it with a decoding_queue
 *      entry.
 *   7) fetch_pending_sample() then attaches the sample to the SpiceGstFrame,
 *      and sets display_frame.
 *   8) schedule_frame() then uses display_frame->encoded_frame->mm_time to
 *      arrange for display_frame() to be called, in the main thread, at the
 *      right time.
 *   9) display_frame() uses SpiceGstFrame from display_frame and calls
 *      stream_display_frame().
 *  10) display_frame() then calls free_gst_frame() to free the SpiceGstFrame
 *      and unref the encoded_buffer which allows GStreamer to call
 *      spice_frame_free() and free its encoded_frame.
