Frame drops are common problem with live captures. This is most of
the time due to buffer starvation introduced by userspace. The
v4l2_buffer.sequence allows detecting gaps (drops), which allows
userspace to report it. The new HDMI receiver driver on RK3588
did not report these properly.

With this in place, drops will be warned by GStreamer notably, with a
trace similar to:

WARN [...]:<v4l2src0> lost frames detected: count = 1 - ts: 0:00:03.063493047

A QoS message is also sent to the application, which can be used to
gather statistics.
