[Libva] gstreamer-vaapi with gstreamer 0.10

[Sreerenj]

Hi,

GStreamer-0.10 support has made "obsolete" from gstreamer-vaapi-0.5.9 
release onwards.
There is no guarantee that it is going to work with 0.10.x ! Even though 
you have hacks to make it work, it will end-up in other issues.
The 0.10.x is something which is not maintaining in upstream(the last 
release was on Feb, 2012 !!). And don't expect help, release or fixing 
in 0.10.
The same for gstreamer-vaapi too, since gstreamer-0.10 is just a mess 
nowadays ,nothing more.
I will completely remove the 0.10 support (and code necessary for 
building) in next gstreamer-vaapi release too.

Note: Even GStreamer-1.0 support is obsolete now, the required version 
of GStreamer is >= 1.2 .
