Clarify that width/height in caps is still the frame height/width,
not field height width, just like framerate is frame rate not
field rate.

+The frame rate in the caps still signals the *frame* rate, so the notional *field*
rate will be twice the frame rate from the caps (see `GST_VIDEO_INFO_FIELD_RATE_N`).
