The spec has a page_time_out in the page composition segment to ensure
subtitles don't get stuck on screen for too much longer than intended,
when future page composition segments get lost on bad reception, or other
problems. Honor it in the gst plugin side.
Push incoming subtitle pages in a FIFO queue (pending_subtitles)
and dequeue the head when it's time to show it (when video running
time reaches the subtitle page running time).
Keep the subtitle page, that is supposed to be blended on top of video
currently, in a separate object variable (current_subtitle). As a
next step we can then pre-render current_subtitle to a better to blend
format.
Eases holding onto the information in gst plugins side queue of
DVBSubtitles, so we won't need to create yet another temporary struct
to keep the pts and page_time_out too.
And this really logically belongs at the toplevel information set anyway
and in that struct...
We want to allow queueing of raw region image data in the gst plugin side,
and keep the data around until we pop the item from the queue. So make
the callback handler responsible for memory cleanup, if one is installed.
Abuse libdvbsub PTS tracking to just store our running time in it, to get
it back in the callbacks. As GStreamer does its own PTS handling behind our
back (especially for video), we should just sync with video per running time,
not try to do it with PTS, which doesn't seem well accessible for video chain.
We can later relabel dvb-sub.c pts naming convention if wanted, it's just
passing along guint64 values, which GstClockTime fortunately is too.
The current idea is to collect the regions returned by the callback into
a FIFO buffer and pop and pre-render the top one into a separate
quick-to-blend cached format, which is then appropriately blended in the
video chain until the next one on top of the stack reaches the video chains
running time (or the fallback timer hits).
