deinterlace: Do passthrough in auto mode if downstream only supports interlaced

If the following conditions are met:
1) upstream and downstream caps are compatible
2) upstream is interlaced
3) downstream doesn't support progressive mode
then deinterlace will just do passthrough instead of failing to link.

This is done with the following scenario in mind:

videotestsrc ! "video/x-raw,interlace-mode=interleaved" ! deinterlace
name=dein_src ! tee name=t ! queue ! deinterlace name=dein_file ! filesink t. !
queue ! deinterlace name=dein_desktop ! autovideosink
In this case, dein_src will do the deinterlacing. However,

videotestsrc ! "video/x-raw,interlace-mode=interleaved" ! deinterlace
name=dein_src ! tee name=t ! queue ! deinterlace name=dein_file ! filesink t. !
queue ! deinterlace name=dein_desktop ! autovideosink t. ! queue !
"video/x-raw,interlace-mode=interleaved" ! fakesink

In this case, caps auto-negotiation will make dein_file and dein_desktop do
the deinterlacing, while dein_src will be passthrough.
