leakstracer: Add API for fetching leaked objects

Browse source 
This allows programs to inspect the leaked objects directly, log them,
and so on. Unlike the existing mechanism to use SIGUSR1, this also
works on platforms that do not support UNIX signals, such as Windows
and with applications that already use SIGUSR1 for something else.

* GstLeaksTracer::get-live-objects:

*
* Returns a #GstStructure containing a #GValue of type #GST_TYPE_LIST which
* is a list of #GstStructure objects containing information about the
* objects that are still alive, which is useful for detecting leaks. Each
* #GstStructure object has the following fields:
*
* `object`: containing the leaked object itself
* `ref-count`: the current reference count of the object
* `trace`: the allocation stack trace for the object, only available if the
* `stack-traces-flags` param is set to `full`
* `ref-infos`: a #GValue of type #GST_TYPE_LIST which is a list of
* #GstStructure objects containing information about the
* ref/unref history of the object; only available if the
* `check-refs` param is set to `true`
*
* Each `ref-infos` #GstStructure has the following fields:
*
* `ts`: the timestamp for the ref/unref
* `desc`: either "reffed" or "unreffed"
* `ref-count`: the reference count after the ref/unref
* `trace`: the stack trace for the ref/unref
*
* NOTE: Ownership of the leaked objects is transferred to you assuming that
* no other code still retains references to them. If that's not true,
* these objects may become invalid if your application continues
* execution after receiving this leak information.
*
* Returns: (transfer full): a newly-allocated #GstStructure
