Jan Alexander Steffens (heftig) 6596b6cdd1 Add livesync plugin
It attempts to produce a (nearly) gapless live stream by synchronizing
its output to the running time and forwarding the next input buffer if
its start is (nearly) flush with the end of the last output buffer.

If the input buffer is missing or too far in the future, it duplicates
the last output buffer with adjusted timestamps. If it is operating on a
raw audio stream, it will fill duplicate buffers with silence.

If an input buffer arrives too late, it is thrown away. If the last
input buffer was accepted too long ago (according to `late-threshold`),
a late input buffer is accepted anyway, but immediately considered a
duplicate. Due to the silence-filling, this has no effect on audio, but
video gets a "slideshow" effect instead of freezing completely.

The "many-repeats" property will be notified when this element has
recently duplicated a lot of buffers or recovered from such a state.
