This CL adds support for the new GAVD backend that connects directly to
a Chrome media::VideoDecoder through the new mojo::VideoDecoder
interface. The mojo::VideoDecodeAccelerator interface currently used by
the GAVDA libvda backend is deprecated and will be removed in the
future.
To enable the libvda GAVD backend the "--video-decoder=libvda-vd"
argument needs to be provided to crosvm.

crosvm is a virtual machine monitor (VMM) based on Linux’s KVM hypervisor, with
a focus on simplicity, security, and speed. crosvm is intended to run Linux
guests, originally as a security boundary for running native applications on the
Chrome OS platform. Compared to QEMU, crosvm doesn’t emulate architectures or
real hardware, instead concentrating on paravirtualized devices, such as the
virtio standard.
crosvm is currently used to run Linux/Android guests on Chrome OS devices.
