GPB is the default type, just contains forward references but the
slice_type is B slice with higher encoding efficiency than regular P
slice, but lower performance.
Add an option to allow user to set regular P slice.

Test data on Intel Kabylake (i7-7567U CPU @ 3.50GHz):
1. ffmpeg -hwaccel qsv -c:v h264_qsv -i bbb_sunflower_1080p_30fps_normal.mp4 -vsync passthrough
-vframes 1000 -c:v hevc_qsv -gpb 0 -bf 0 -q 25 test_gpb_off_bf0_kbl.mp4
transcoding fps: 85
encoded file size of test_gpb_off_bf0_kbl.mp4: 21960100 (bytes)
2. ffmpeg -hwaccel qsv -c:v h264_qsv -i bbb_sunflower_1080p_30fps_normal.mp4 -vsync passthrough
-vframes 1000 -c:v hevc_qsv -gpb 1 -bf 0 -q 25 test_gpb_on_bf0_kbl.mp4
transcoding fps: 79
encoded file size oftest_gpb_on_bf0_kbl.mp4: 21211449 (bytes)
In this case, enable gpb can bring about 7% performance drop but 3.4% encoding efficiency improvment.

There are many problems of current qsv trellis option:
1. Duplicated with AVCodecContext definition
2. MFX_TRELLIS_XXX is introduced by MSDK API 1.17
Currently Without MSDK API checking thus may cause compilation issue.
3. user is inclined to enable trellis when set "-trellis 1", but
actually it is to disable since MFX_TRELLIS_OFF is equal to 1.
4. It is too complex for user to enable trellis for every frame(I/P/B).
Just simply remove the private option, and switch to the AVCodecContext
definition. Compatibility should not a big problem (except can't exact map)
since the option name is same as AVCodecContext.

QVBR mode is to use the variable bitrate control algorithm
with constant quality.
mfxExtCodingOption3 should be supported to enable QVBR mode.
It is neccesary to specify a max_rate for QVBR, else it may be ICQ mode.
Example usage: ffmpeg -hwaccel qsv -c:v h264_qsv -i input.mp4 -c:v
h264_qsv -global_quality 25 -maxrate 2M test_qvbr.mp4 -v verbose
Clip QVBR quality range to be [0, 51] as Mark's commments.
It is similar to qp range of CQP but possibly should be updated when VP8/VP9
encoding can be supported.

Add VDENC(lowpower mode) support for QSV H264
It's an experimental function(like lowpower in vaapi) with
some limitations:
- CBR/VBR require HuC which should be explicitly loaded via i915
module parameter(i915.enable_guc=2 for linux kernel version >= 4.16)
Use option "-low_power 1" to enable VDENC.
Add in dump_video_param() to show the status of VDENC in runtime log.

Current implementations of qsv components incorrectly work with async level, they
actually try to work in async+1 level stepping into MFX_WRN_DEVICE_BUSY and polling
loop. This change address this misbehaviour.

Merged as-at libav 398f015, and therefore includes outstanding
skipped merges 04b17ff and 130e1f1.
All features not in libav are preserved, and no options change.
The b_frame_strategy option is only used by mpegvideoenc, qsv, x264, and
xavs, while b_sensitivity is only used by mpegvideoenc.
These are very codec-specific options, so deprecate the global variants.
Set proper limits to the maximum allowed values.
