Support for (nullable) was added to G-I at the same time as nullable
return values. Previous versions of G-I will not mark return values as
nullable, even when an (allow-none) annotation is present, so it is
not necessary to add (allow-none) annotations for compatibility with
older versions of G-I.

They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.
Fixes compiler warnings such as
gstallocator.c:61:8: error: conflicting types for 'gst_memory_alignment'
../gst/gstallocator.h:52:18: note: previous declaration of 'gst_memory_alignment' was here
Only use the allocator of the copied memory when we can use the default
_alloc function on it. Otherwise we will have to use the default
allocator for the copy.
When making a copy of the memory allocated from the default memory allocator,
make sure the new copy has the same alignment as the original memory.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=680796
Remove the user_data from the alloc vmethod. Subclasses that implement a new
alloc function can also implement their own vmethod to pass extra arguments. We
can then also require that custom allocators implement an alloc function so that
gst_allocator_alloc() always works.
Make GstAllocator a GstObject instead of a GstMiniObject, like bufferpool.
Make a new gstallocator.c file. Make a GstAllocator subclass for the default
allocator.
