To allow the refcounting tracer to work better. In childproxy/iterator
these might be plain GObjects but gst_object_unref() also works on them.
In other places where it is never GstObject, g_object_unref() is kept.
This changes some APIs in compatible ways:
- Some functions now take "const char *" arguments, not "char *"
- Some structs now have "conts char *" members, not "char *"
The changes may cause warnings when compiling with the right warning
flags. You've been warned.
Also adds -Wwrite-strings as a warning flag in configure.ac.

* gst/gstelement.h (GstState): Renamed from GstElementState,
changed to be a normal enum instead of flags.
(GstStateChangeReturn): Renamed from GstElementStateReturn, names
munged to be GST_STATE_CHANGE_*.
(GST_STATE_CHANGE): Renamed from GST_STATE_TRANSITION, updated to
work with the new state representation.
(GstStateChange): New enumeration of possible state transitions.
Replaces GST_STATE_FOO_TO_BAR with GST_STATE_CHANGE_FOO_TO_BAR.
(GstElementClass::change_state): Pass the GstStateChange along as
an argument. Helps language bindings, so they don't have to use
tricky lock-needing macros like GST_STATE_CHANGE ().
* scripts/update-states (file): New script. Run it on a file to
update it for state naming and API changes. Updates files in
place.
* All files updated for the new API.

Original commit message from CVS:
* tests/mass_elements.c: (main):
allow specifying src and sink element explicitly, so I can test
videotestsrc instead of fakesrc
Original commit message from CVS:
* tests/.cvsignore:
* tests/Makefile.am:
* tests/mass_elements.c: (gst_get_current_time), (main):
add simple benchmark to test various speeds of fakesrc ! identity !
identity ! ... ! fakesink.
Usage: mass_elements [num_identities] [num_buffers]
If not specified they default to 1000.
