State transitions request functions hid the synchronization
details to the caller:
- If the transition was requested from a Context, a subtask was
added or the transition ack was not awaited if the new transition
was requested from a running transition or an iteration function.
- If the transition was not requested from a Context, current
thread was blocked until the ack was received.
This strategy facilitated code in elements, but it suffered from
the following shortcomings:
- The `prepare` transition request didn't comply with the above
strategy and would always return an `Async` form. This was
designed to accomodate the `Prepare` function for elements
such as `ts-tcpclientsrc` which takes times due to the
TCP socket connection delays. The idea was that the actual
transition result would be available after calling `start`.
This was a disadvantage for elements which would prefer to
error immediately in the event of a preparation failure.
- Hidding the transition request synchronization to the caller
meant that they had no options but relying on the internal
mechanism. E.g.: it was not possible to `start` from another
async runtime without blocking. Also it was not possible
to request a transition and choose not to await for the
ack.
This commit introduces a more flexible API for state
transitions requests:
- The transition request function now return a `TransitionStatus`,
which is a Future.
- When an error occurs immediately (e.g. the transition
request is not autorized due to current state of the Task),
the `TransitionStatus` is resolved immediately and can be
`check`ed for errors. This is useful for functions such as
`pepare` in the case of `ts-tcpclientsrc` (see above).
This is also useful for `pause`, because in current design,
the transition is always async. Note however, that `pause` is
forseen to adhere to the same behaviour as the other transition
requests in the near future [1].
- If the caller chooses to await for the ack and they don't know
if they are running on a ts Context (e.g. in `Pad{Src,Sink}`
handlers), they can call `await_maybe_on_context`. This is mostly
the same behaviour as the one that used to be performed internaly.
- If the caller knows for sure they can't possibly block an async
executor, they can call `block_on` which is more explicite, but
will nonetheless make sure no ts Context is being blocked. This
last check was introduced as it was considered low overhead
while it should ease preventing missues in cases where the above
functions should be used.

Task state machines used to execute in an executor from the Futures
crate. State transitions actions and iteration functions were then
spawned on the target threadshare Context.
This commit directly spawns the task state machine on the threadshare
Context. This simplifies code a bit and paves the way for the changes
described in [1].
Also introduces struct `StateMachineHandle`, which gather together
fields to communicate and synchronize with the StateMachine. Renamed
`StateMachine::run` as `spawn` and return `StateMachineHandle`.

The scheduler is awaken when aborting a task loop, but not after
a triggering event is pushed. This can cause throttling to induce
long state transitions for pipelines with many streams.

During MR !793, the socket configuration mechanism was changed to
use commands passed to the Task via a channel. This worked properly
for user changes via settings and signals, however the default
clients setting was not used.
A simple solution could have been to send a command at initialization
to add the default clients, but it was considered a better solution
to just wait for the Task preparation to configure the sockets based
on the value of settings.clients at that time, thus avoiding
unnecessary successive removals and additions of clients which could
have happened before preparation.
Of course, users can still add or remove clients as before, before
and after Task preparation.

A regression was introduced during the migration to AWS SDK. One used
to be able to provide credentials in multiple ways with the earlier
Rusoto ChainProvider (config file / environment variables). Now one
has to explicitly set the properties.
Use the DefaultCredentialsChain from AWS SDK to restore the previous
functionality.
See
https://docs.rs/aws-config/0.46.0/aws_config/default_provider/credentials/struct.DefaultCredentialsChain.html.
Allow specifying an endpoint to be used for S3 requests. This makes
it possible to use integrations providing object storage based on S3
API like MinIO.
When the endpoint-uri property is specified, the endpoint resolver to
use will be overridden when making S3 requests.
This reverts commit 402500f79c.
This commit introduces race conditions. It was intended as solving
an issue with some pipelines which had their queues filling up,
causing the streams to stall. It is reverted as this solution is
considered a workaround for another issue.

The way the runtime::Task is implemented, UdpSinkTask is available
as a mutable ref in all the TaskImpl functions, which offers the
opportunity to avoid using Mutexes.
Main higlights:
- Removed the back and forth calls between UdpSinkPadHandler
and UdpSinkTask.
- Udp sockets are now part of UdpSinkTask, which is also in
charge of preparing them instead of leaving this to UdpSink.
This removed the need for Context::enter since
TaskImpl::prepare already operates under the target Context.
- In order for the clients list to be visible from the UdpSink,
this list was maintained by UdpSinkPadHandler which was also
in charge of (un)configuring the Udp sockets. The sockets are
now part of UdpSinkTask, which is also in charge of the
(un)configuration. Add/remove/replace requests are passed as
commands to the UdpSinkTask via a channel.
- The clients list visible to the UdpSink is now part of the
Settings (it is also a read/write property). Since the actual
socket (un)configuration is asynchronously handled by the Task,
the clients list is updated by the add/remove/replace signals
and set_property("clients", ..). Should a problem occur during
the async (un)configuration, and only in this case, the
UdpSinkTask would update the clients lists in Settings
accordingly so that it stays consistent with the internal state.
- The function clear_clients was renamed as replace_with_clients.
- clients is now based on a BTreeSet instead of a Vec. All the
managing functions perform some sort of lookup prior to updating
the collection. It also ease implementation.
- Removed the UdpSinkPadHandler RwLock. Using flume channels, we
are able to clone the Receiver so it can be stored in UdpSink
and reused when preparing the UdpSinkTask.
Ideally, when player encounter PLAYLIST-TYPE is VOD, player should
not reload the playlist. For playlist-type=vod, initially we put
PLAYLIST-TYPE=EVENT, and later change it to VOD, which confuse some
players so we shold put ENDLIST here.
In any case putting ENDLIST is right thing to do to indicate no new
segment will be added to playlist.
in current implementation EXT-X-ENDLIST is never set for any playlist-type.
After calling playlist.stop(), during write_final_playlist() is called.
in final playlist write, segment is not added but update_playlist is called.
and update_playlist reset end_list again, so plugin never put ENDLIST.
The `get_mut()` function can return None when the memory is not writable, so
instead, make sure the memory is writable by using `make_mut()`.
