Hardware decoded video overlay is already enabled with Intel GPUs and NVIDIA GPUs. The change allows hardware decoded video overlay on all GPUs, including AMD GPUs.

Downloadable blocklist entries did not have an explicit way to declare a
rule to affect all features prior to this patch. Instead they would
leave the "feature" attribute unset, which defaults us to
GfxDriverInfo::allFeatures. Now if it is unset, it defaults to
GfxDriverInfo::optionalFeatures. There are also explicit wildcard
feature strings, ALL and OPTIONAL respectively.

This patch makes it so that we avoid blocking all features with the
blocklist, and instead continue to allow the safe subset proscribed by
GfxInfoBase::OnlyAllowFeatureOnKnownConfig. Any feature allowed in an
unknown configuration should be allowed in a blanket blocklist entry,
unless we know for a fact that we need to also block them.

Some features such as the GPU process (except on Android), backdrop
filter (because it always works with Software WebRender), ANGLE (because
it is generally good) and out of process WebGL (we generally want to
remote WebGL for sandboxing purposes) are special, and should not be
disabled simply because we are uncertain about our configuration. In
these situations, disable most features, but keep these enabled by
default.

Current gecko enables "software decoded video overlay" only when "hardware decoded video overlay" is enabled. On current release, "hardware decoded video overlay" is not enabled yet with non-Intel GPU, then "software decoded video overlay" is not yet enabled on release. It is not good. We want to enable "software decoded video overlay" independently from "hardware decoded video overlay". Then settings of video overlay is split between "hardware decoded video overlay" and "software decoded video overlay". Then "software decoded video overlay" could be enabled/disabled independently from status of "hardware decoded video overlay".

- Add H264_HW_DECODE / AV1_HW_DECODE features to track H264/AV1 decoding state on Linux.
- Add UseH264HwDecode / UseAV1HwDecode gfx variables to route decode state to RDD process.
- Init H264_HW_DECODE / AV1_HW_DECODE features on Linux only and skip all HW decoding features init if VA-API is not supported.

We already avoid launching the GPU process during shutdown, but shutdown
could happen after we initiated the launch and before it completes. Top
level IPDL protocols assert that we don't create them during shutdown,
so we need to be more diligent about checking for that.

This is:
* An easier way for browser code to access it.
* Avoids having a bunch of per-platform implementations.
* We don't need to actually get graphics info for it to work.
So it should be a bit nicer over all.

Gfx blocklist doesn't actually use the desktop environment filter so
remove that functionality. We can reintroduce it in the future if we

WebRender is a mature feature. We should start blocking it on known bad
devices over allowlisting known good devices. This may enable WebRender
in a few more obscure places than we shipped before.

Ensure that when we evaluate the downloadable blocklist, we actually
only use the downloadable blocklist. We should not include any platform
specific checks in these prefs, as it causes confusion about why the
prefs were set in the first place. Allowlisted features should be
ignored when evaluating the downloadable blocklist; if we wish to
override the ALLOW/ALLOW_QUALIFIED/DENIED statuses, we should use OK or
BLOCKED_DEVICE or similar instead.
This caused allowlisted features (like WebRender) to be taken away from
users in the most recent nightly.

We have added a number of new status codes, for the allowlist and new
errors that were not previously handled by the code managing the gfx
blocklist prefs. We also now iterate over the range of features instead
of manually listing the features, as some were missed during previous
additions.
