videodecoder: parse any source data that is still available.

Fix gst_video_decoder_parse_available() to really parse any pending
source data that is still available in the adapter. This is a memory
optimization to avoid expansion of video packed added to the adapter,
but also a fix to EOS condition when the subclass parse() function
ultimately only needed to call into gvd_have_frame() and no additional
source bytes were consumed, i.e. gvd_add_to_frame() is not called.

This situation can occur when decoding H.264 streams in byte-stream/nal
mode for instance. A decoder always requires the next NAL unit to be
parsed so that to determine picture boundaries. When a new picture is
found, no byte is consumed (i.e. gvd_add_to_frame() is not called)
but gvd_have_frame() is called (i.e. priv->current_frame is gone).

Also make sure to avoid infinite loops caused by incorrect subclass
parse() implementations. This can occur when no byte gets consumed
and no appropriate indication (GST_VIDEO_DECODER_FLOW_NEED_DATA) is
returned.
