codecs: h264dec: Consider the field case when directly output.

For interlaced streams, it is also possible that the last frame is
not able to be inserted into DPB when the DPB is full and the last
frame is a non ref. For this case, we need to hold a extra ref for
the first field of the last frame and wait for the complete frame
with both top and bottom fields. For the progressive stream, the
behaviour is unchanged.
