Since those are using the clock for sync, they need to also
provide a clock for good measure. The reason is that even if
downstream elements provide a clock, we don't want to have
that clock selected because it might not be running yet.

Identity was ignoring seek and flush events even when using
a single segment. In the end it means that we couldn't compute
buffers running-time and stream time after seeks.
This commits adds support for flushing seeks only as I have no idea
what to do for non flushing ones.

In reverse playback, buffers are played back from buffer.stop
(buffer.pts + buffer.duration) to buffer.pts running times which
mean that we need to use the buffer end running time as a buffer
timestsamp, not the buffer pts when using a single segment in reverse
playback.
This is now being tested in
`validate.test.identity.reverse_single_segment`

By passing NULL to `g_signal_new` instead of a marshaller, GLib will
actually internally optimize the signal (if the marshaller is available
in GLib itself) by also setting the valist marshaller. This makes the
signal emission a bit more performant than the regular marshalling,
which still needs to box into `GValue` and call libffi in case of a
generic marshaller.
Note that for custom marshallers, one would use
`g_signal_set_va_marshaller()` with the valist marshaller instead.
sync=TRUE implementation changes the latency query of a non-live
upstream into live, though it wrongly set the upstream max latency to 0.
As non-live sources won't loose data if we wait longer, this should have
been reported as have no max latency limite (-1).
I copied `error-after` to make the `eos-after` property, but it turned
out there were some problems with that one, so this patch: adds
separate counters (so setting to NULL and reusing the element will
still work); clarifies the properties' min values; and reports an
error when both are set.
Using `num-buffers` can be unpredictable as buffer sizes are often
arbitrary (filesrc, multifilesrc, etc.). The `error-after` property on
`identity` is better but obviously reports an error afterwards. This
adds `eos-after` which does exactly the same thing but reports EOS
instead.
When enabled, this property will make the allocation query fail. This is
the same as one could have done using a tee before the tee started
implementing the allocation query.

Otherwise we might try unscheduling a clock id (that does not exist
yet), then the streaming thread waits for id and the state change never
continues because the streaming thread is blocked.
Also shutting down and flushing and similar should return FLUSHING, not
EOS. The stream is not over, we're just not accepting any buffers
anymore.
They can fail for various reasons.
For non-fatal cases (such as the dump feature of identiy and fakesink),
we just silently skip it.
For other cases post an error message.

Writing a test for unscheduling the gst_clock_id_wait inside the
identity element, found an invalid read, caused by removing the clock-id
when calling _unschedule instead of letting the code calling _wait remove
the clock-id after being unscheduled.

TRUE is 1, but every other non-zero value is also considered true. Comparing
for equality with TRUE would only consider 1 but not the others.
Also normalize booleans in a few places.
We always work in passthrough mode so there's no point in doing
something more clever in basetransform. Also the basetransform
code leads to problems with incomplete caps and downstream
elements that use GST_PAD_FLAG_ACCEPT_INTERSECT.

Default to not creating lots of overhead by doing a couple of
g_strdup_printf()/g_free() per buffer or event just to generate
a last-message update that rarely anyone listens to. This means
that you need to enable silent=true explicitly in order to get
last-message dumps in gst-launch -v now. On the upside, people
won't inadvertently end up benchmarking g_strdup_printf()
performance instead of gstreamer data handling performance any
more.
Maybe the silent property should be renamed to enable-last-message
or something like that?
Correctly mark passthrough on the baseclass so that it can correctly do the
allocation of the output buffers.
Remove our custom prepare_output_buffer function now that the baseclass is
smarter.
