The new gst_install_plugins_context_set_desktop_id() and
gst_install_plugins_context_set_startup_notification_id() API can be
used to pass extra details to the external installer process.

These values are for now taken from x265 and need to be checked against
the spec. Especially we need to check if information from other fields
need to be taken into consideration too, e.g. the bit depth and chroma
index from the SPS.
This however makes 4:4:4 output of x265enc actually work.
The gst_discoverer_info_get_missing_elements_installer_details()
documentation and annotation says that the return value should be freed
with g_strfreev(), but actually it's owned by the GstDiscovereInfo
object and should definitely not get freed by the caller as well.

In some cases, the user might want the stream outputted by encodebin to
be in the exact same format during all the stream. We should let the
user specify when this is the case. This commit add some API in the
GstEncodingProfile to determine whether the format can be renegotiated
after the encoding started or not.
API:
gst_encoding_profile_set_allow_dynamic_output
gst_encoding_profile_get_allow_dynamic_output

This avoids a race where we would get new tag but we are already
prerolled and analyzing results.
It is the way it is supposed to be handled as stated in comment:
"If preroll is complete, drop these tags - the collected information is
possibly already being processed and adding more tags would be racy"
Otherwize the pipeline would be in an wrong state and on the next
iteration any kind of error could happen
Everytime an error happens in a pipeline the application has to set the
pipeline back to NULL instead of READY.

Recognize H.264 Level 5.2, as exposed by modern 2160p30+ streams,
i.e. commonly known as 4K. Also add initial support for handling
Annex.G (SVC) profiles.

Currently the API is far from optimal and the user has to work around
our badly defined API to simply install missing plugins.
API:
new:
gst_discoverer_info_get_missing_elements_installer_details
deprecated:
gst_discoverer_info_get_misc
gst_discoverer_stream_info_get_misc

We're checking the caps to see if we got more caps details after a parser got
plugged. This will also have a flipped 'parsed' field. If the field was already
present before the parse the match will fail. Add a function that will do the
check while excluding this field.
Mark terms such as "planar", "packed", and "palettized" as
translatable, and re-arrange strings a bit to make them
better suited for translation.
Also fix bug in yuv descriptions, one plane is packed, more
is planar (or semi-planar).

Caps description and missing plugin code does not really need caps to
be fixed, and indeed they may not be if giving encodebin unfixed caps
that correspond to an unknown encoder or muxer.
So we relax the check, and allow unfixed caps if all the structures
refer to the same media type.
We already have internally the information on what type of stream (audio,
video, container, subtitle, ...) a certain caps is.
Instead of forcing callers to specify which CODEC_TAG category a certain
caps is, use that information to make a smart choice.
Does not break previous behaviour of gst_pb_utils_add_codec_description_to_tag_list
(if tag is specified it will be used, if caps is invalid it will be rejected,
...).

The _1_0 suffixed environment variables override the
non-suffixed ones, so if we're in an environment that
sets the _1_0 suffixed ones, such as jhbuild, we need
to set those to make sure ours actually always get
used.
The behaviour is sensibly changed here. Instead of purely falling when a
preset is set on the #GstEncodingProfile, we now make sure that the
element that is plugged corresponds to the one specified as preset. Then,
if we have a preset_name, we use it, if it fails, we fail (we might rather
just keep working even without setting the element properties?)
+ Add tests that it behave correctly
It was possible to decide only what #GstElement implementing #GstPreset
to use during the encoding, we can now let the user select a specific preset previously
saved using #gst_preset_save_preset specifying the name chosen when it was saved
in the gst_encoding_profile_set_preset_name.
Actually loading a preset with %NULL as a name would have always failed, so
in the current state of the API that feature is unusable
API:
gst_encoding_profile_set_preset_name
gst_encoding_profile_get_preset_name
This reverts commit e39fbe6b7e.
Looks like we need to pass the full .la file after all in a setup
with libtool, or it might not find the library, e.g. like
ERROR: can't resolve libraries to shared libraries: gstfft-1.0
Conflicts:
gst-libs/gst/audio/Makefile.am
gst-libs/gst/pbutils/Makefile.am
Also see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603710
But we should only do that if it comes straight from a
container or wavparse, not if it comes from a decoder,
otherwise it's probably not really meaningful.
They're hardly used, and probably more confusing than anything
else, and it's not clear that anyone would really need to be
able to tell them apart at the media type level.
