x264enc: Separate high-10 video formats from 8-bit formats

Jan Alexander Steffens requested to merge heftig/gst-plugins-ugly:x264-formats into master

If downstream is constrained to an 8-bit profile, caps queries would still allow I420_10LE as input. If upstream actually sends such a caps event, downstream would fail to accept the high-10 profile.

The following pipeline now fails earlier, during the negotiation phase instead of the stream start:

gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! video/x-raw,format=I420_10LE \
    ! x264enc ! video/x-h264,profile=constrained-baseline \
    ! fakesink
