We had some code for checking profiles earlier, which was removed in
commits 2508f38 and adfb71b. These commits mentioned that (working) hw
decoding was sometimes prevented due to profile checking, but I can't
find the samples anymore that showed this behavior. Also, I changed my
opinion, and I think checking the profiles is something that should be
done for better fallback to software decoding behavior.
The checks roughly follow VLC's vdpau profile checks, although we do
not check codec levels. (VLC's profile checks aren't necessarily
completely correct, but they're a welcome help anyway.)
Add a --vd-lavc-check-hw-profile option, which skips the profile check.
Formally, this sets the "background color" of the presentation queue.
But in practice, this color is also used as colorkey.
This commit doesn't change the VDPAU default yet.
Instead of generating vdpau_template.c with a Perl script, just include
the generated file in git. This is ok because it changes very rarely,
and the script is larger than the output it generates.
It also simplify the Makefile, and fixes the build. The problem was that
transitive dependencies do not work with generated files: there is no
dependency information yet when building it the first time. I overlooked
this because I didn't delete the .d files for testing (which contained
the correct dependencies, but only _after_ a first successful build).
