libavcodec/qsvenc: Add low latency P-pyramid support to qsv

Add low latency P-pyramid support to qsv. This feature relates to
command line option "-p_strategy". To enable this flag, user also
need to set "-bf" to 0. P-strategy has two modes "1-simple" and
"2-pyramid". The details of the two models refer to
