Hi.

I found huge memory leak when using vaapivp8enc. This pipeline demonstrates
this:

gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! video/x-raw,width=40,height=20 ! vaapivp8enc !
fakesink

gst-launch eats memory at ~150MB per second. If i replace encoder to
vaapih264enc or vaapimpeg2enc then everything is fine.

valgrind shows this result:

valgrind --leak-check=full gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=3000 !
video/x-raw,width=2,height=2 ! vaapivp8enc ! fakesink
