 * @brief
 *  Queues the current buffer, gets back a another buffer for encoding with corrent
 *  picture type
 *
 * @par Description:
 *      This function performs 3 distinct but related functions.
 *      1) Maintains an input queue [Note the the term queue donot imply a
 *         first-in first-out logic here] that queues input and dequeues them so
 *         that input frames can be encoded at any predetermined encoding order
 *      2) Uses RC library to decide which frame must be encoded in current pass
 *         and which picture type it must be encoded to.
 *      3) Uses RC library to decide the QP at which current frame has to be
 *         encoded
 *      4) Determines if the current picture must be encoded or not based on
 *         PRE-ENC skip
 *
 *     Input queue is used for storing input buffers till they are used for
 *     encoding. This queue is maintained at ps_codec->as_inp_list. Whenever a
 *     valid input comes, it is added to the end of queue. This same input is
 *     added to RC queue using the identifier as ps_codec->i4_pic_cnt. Hence any
 *     pic from RC can be located in the input queue easily.
 *
 *     The dequeue operation does not start till we have ps_codec->s_cfg.u4_max_num_bframes
 *     frames in the queue. THis is done in order to ensure that once output starts
 *     we will have a constant stream of output with no gaps.
 *
 *     THe output frame order is governed by RC library. When ever we dequeue a
 *     buffer from RC library, it ensures that we will get them in encoding order
 *     With the output of RC library, we can use the picture id to dequeue the
 *     corresponding buffer from input queue and encode it.
 *
 *     Condition at the end of stream.
 *     -------------------------------
 *      At the last valid buffer from the app, we will get ps_ive_ip->u4_is_last
 *      to be set. This will the given to lib when appropriate input buffer is
 *      given to encoding.
 *
 *      Since we have to output is not in sync with input, we will have frames to
 *      encode even after we recive the last vaild input buffer. Hence we have to
 *      make sure that we donot queue any new buffers once we get the flag [It may
 *      mess up GOP ?]. This is acheived by setting ps_codec->i4_last_inp_buff_received
 *      to act as a permenent marker for last frame recived [This may not be needed,
 *      because in our current app, all buffers after the last are marked as last.
 *      But can we rely on that?] . Hence after this flgag is set no new buffers are
 *      queued.
 *
 * @param[in] ps_codec
 *   Pointer to codec descriptor
 *
 * @param[in] ps_ive_ip
 *   Current input buffer to the encoder
 *
 * @param[out] ps_inp
 *   Buffer to be encoded in the current pass
 *
 * @returns
 *   Flag indicating if we have a pre-enc skip or not
 *
 * @remarks
 * TODO (bpic)
 *  The check for null ans is last is redudent.
 *  Need to see if we can remove it
