msdk: check GstMsdkContext instead of mfxSession instance

When creating a GstMsdkContext instance, it also creates a mfxSession
instance, so we may check GstMsdkContext instead of mfxSession instance
to make sure MSDK is available. In addition, according to MSDK doc [1],
MFXVideoCORE_SetHandle function should be executed before any actual
usage of library including queries, otherwise the behavior is
unexpected, so we should call MFXVideoCORE_QueryPlatform after
MFXVideoCORE_SetHandle on Linux
