[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v3] lavf: vvc_probe: enforce SPS -> PPS -> IRAP detection order to fix invalid stream detection

The current vvc_probe function checks for SPS, PPS, and IRAP NAL units but does not enforce their detection order. This can lead to false positives when PPS or IRAP appear before SPS, causing malformed or non-compliant bitstreams to be incorrectly identified as valid VVC streams.

This patch modifies the logic to use boolean flags and enforces the correct detection sequence: SPS must be detected before PPS, and PPS before IRAP. This ensures more accurate probing and prevents invalid bitstreams from being misidentified.

This change addresses issues reported in:

- https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/11087

[v2] lavf: vvc_probe: fix based on review feedback

Changes since v1:
- Added a flag to force sps, pps, iraq to appear in order;
- Modified score where pps, iraq appeared in the wrong position;
- Set a smaller score for incomplete sps, pps, iraq to deal with situations that may look like vvc format
