Add "-skip_frame invalid" option to allow user to request decoder to skip
invalid nalus before an IRAP.
This would benefit decoding pipeline of bitstreams who didn't start from
an IRAP frame. NULL pointer pointing to missing reference may lead to
unexpected hang issues[1] in sub-level like hardware decoding.
Fixing the hang in driver is the first correct thing. Besides, adding a check
in nalu parsing and skip frames until we got the first IRAP would be another
good choice to be more robust for error tolerance.
Also this needs worker thread to update the skip_frames field in time.
[1] https://github.com/intel/media-driver/issues/992
H.265 has a standard mechanism for dealing with missing reference pictures,
which is defined in 8.3.3. That doesn't directly apply for the case here (it's
intended for RASL pictures), but a conformant decoder must be implementing it
somewhere - can the Intel driver use that?
Trying to eliminate this case entirely is not going to work - being able to
splice intra-refresh streams at any point depends on sensible behaviour for
missing references, and streams containing errors due to packet loss can always
happen.

Request for comments:
The purpose is to allow decoder to skip frames until an IRAP has arrived,
however
not sure whether we already had this in ffmpeg, hence submit a patch and
request for comments.
Skip logic identical for AVDISCARD_NONKEY in decode_nal_unit(). >

IMO INVALID is not a good name to use here - such packets are perfectly valid
in cases like intra-refresh.
"before" would need to be clarified - RADL frames can definitely be thought of as
"before" the associated IRAP picture, but this wouldn't be discarding them.
Also, it should probably avoid using H.265-specific terminology for the
explanation in the generic header.
