This can be used to store informational messages, errors or
warnings which can later be shown to the user in gst-inspect-1.0,
which can be useful for plugins that expose elements dynamically
based on external libraries or hardware capabilities.
Status messages can then provide an indication as to why a
plugin doesn't have any elements listed, for example.
Plus unit test to make sure code paths are exercised a little.

External plugin loader support for Windows is introduced
in this dev cycle. Since helper binary was not required (useless)
before this version, people may not ship the binary
with new GStreamer version, then they will observe warning message.
Instead of displaying the warning at plugin loading time,
checks helper bin earlier and disable external plugin loader
if helper binary is not installed.

Removes the usage of [NSApp terminate] to avoid killing the process and thus never actually returning a value.
The new way is just to use [NSApp stop] and send an event, since stop only happens after an event is processed.
Unlike terminate, stop will only halt the event loop, not the whole process.
This uses an NSApplicationDelegate to listen for NSApp finishing the launch process, and then signals the 'main' thread
to proceed. That makes sure to never call [NSApp stop] before NSApp is actually running, which could happen if the
provided 'main' function finished quickly enough.

decodebin(3) runs a scheduling query before pads are activated which
ultimately triggers basesrc->start which will automatically call
`gst_base_src_start_complete` for any source that is not marked as
'async'. This calls will harmlessly bail out in `not_activated_yet`
so we should not warn in that case.

On fedora 38 (and it was the case in previous releases), the
quark_seq_id is optimized out so getting quarks from the
global variable always failed. This patch works around that by assuming
it is a valid quark whenever the quark_seq_id is not accessible.
This issue often manifested as Python Exception <class 'TypeError'>:
can only concatenate str (not "NoneType") to str when debugging as
other parts of the code assume that getting the quark for a GType name
will work.

When we finish a frame, we pass a size which semantic can easily be confused.
Improve the documentation to clarify that the parameter size is the amount of
input data being consumed and, if set, the output_buffer size can differ.

This allows metas to be serialized to be transmitted or stored. This is
intended to be used for example by gdppay or unixfdsink.
Implemented on GstCustomMeta, GstVideoMeta, GstReferenceTimestampMeta,
and GstAudioMeta.

Meson devenv already overrides GST_PLUGIN_PATH and
GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH so only built plugins can be found. That means
unit tests are allowed to use every plugins.
This makes easier to run some unit tests under devenv instead of through
"meson test".

It is racy and may cause us to accidentally keep forwarding data past
the EOS. The only reason to stop dropping would be when we encounter a
stream-start, segment, or segment-done event, either in push_one
(already queued) or in the sink pad's event function.

Use gst_data_queue_push_force() for most events so they
are immediately enqueued. Only gap events and actual buffer
data will now block when the queue is full.
This fixes a problem with non-flushing seek handling
where events following a segment-done event would block
if they precede the SEGMENT event, since only SEGMENT
events would clear the 'eos' state of the multiqueue
queue.
