As the user may queue the codec header in a separate buffer. Especially in android case, but the amphion vpu requires one buffer contains one frame, if not, driver will merge the header to the next IDR frame. So we need this flag to handle such case. And for encoder, if the V4L2_MPEG_VIDEO_HEADER_MODE_SEPARATE is set, the stream header is returned separately in the first buffer. But there are some codecs that can produce sps, pps, vps separately, it means there may be more than 1 buffers returned with header data only. So I think this flag is also an enhancement for encoder.
