This adds a property to select the maximum number of threads to use for
conversion and scaling. During processing, each plane is split into
an equal number of consecutive lines that are then processed by each
thread.
During tests, this gave up to 1.8x speedup with 2 threads and up to 3.2x
speedup with 4 threads when converting e.g. 1080p to 4k in v210.

Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)
* Seriously fast configure and building on embedded
... and many more. For more details see:

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
libgstreamer currently exports some debug category
symbols GST_CAT_*, but those are not declared in any
public headers.
Some plugins and libgstvideo just use GST_DEBUG_CATEGORY_EXTERN()
to declare and use those, but that's just not right at
all, and it won't work on Windows with MSVC. Instead look
up the categories via the API.
Add logging categories for most video objects.
Remove some useless debug lines in video-info and videotestsrc.
Add a performance debug line in the video scaler.
GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_ALPHA_MODE, GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_CHROMA_MODE,
GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_MATRIX_MODE, GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_GAMMA_MODE and
GST_VIDEO_CONVERTER_OPT_PRIMARIES_MODE were G_TYPE_STRING with only a few valid
options. Changed those to real enums.

In gst_video_scale_fixate_caps () it can goto done without freeing the memory
of the tmp GstStructure. This makes it go out of scope and leak.
CID #1265766
Ignore chroma subsampling and color matrix transformations like the
old videoscale used to do. This is to make the performance like it was
before.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=741987
Support lanczos scaling method for NV12 and NV21 formats.
Scale the 'Y' plane and scale 'NV' plane.
Implementation for submethods - int16, int32, float and double

They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.
Fix component ordering, it's wrong in both the scanline and merge
function so it cancels eachother out and isn't really a except for
loss of precision of the green component.
Fix calculation of the filter weight
changed: gst_video_scale_set_info in gst/videoscale/gstvideoscale.c
DAR on sink side now calculated with PAR on sink side
ratio of output width/height now calculated with inverse PAR
additional condition that borders are 0:0 for passthrough mode
