Add a function to retrieve a list of buffers containing the first N bytes from
the adapter. This can be done without a memcpy and should make it possible to
transfer the list to a GstBufferList later.
Add gst_is_initialized() guard to gst_element_factory_make(), so
people who forgot to call gst_init() get a useful warning for what
seems to be a common enough mistake.
Sprinkle some G_UNLIKELY(), return TRUE/FALSE constants, avoid an
unnecessary g_value_unset(), move g_value_init()+set_int64_range()
closer to where they're needed.
Don't create a new GValueArray copy for every single _add_buffering_range()
call, but append to the existing value array owned by the structure instead.
Add _set_value() variants that take ownership of the value passed
instead of making a copy of the value. This is useful for setting
values to things that aren't refcounted (e.g. GValueArrays or
strings or string arrays, etc.).

Add an option to forward all the internal messages that would otherwise be
filtered such as EOS, SEGMENT and ASYNC messages.
This allows the application to, for example, detect that a partial pipeline is
prerolled or reached eos.
The original messages are wrapped inside an element message because the parent
bins are not supposed to see those internal messages escape.
A flush-stop event would make a pad unflushing, causing it
to start acting as an activated pad. This, for example,
could lead to the chain function being called when stuff
isn't initialized.
This could happend when setting qtdemux to NULL while a seek
was being handled in the upstream filesrc (in push mode).
This patch makes it check if it is activated before setting
it to unflushing.
The sync handler is called for all mesages, the event loop we previously used
was not. In the sync handler trigger pipeline dot dumps and call access for a
file in tmp-dir to add markers interceptable by strace and co.
There's no need to create these tables with duplicates of the
untranslated error message string constants, we can just use
old-fashioned switch/case and call gettext directly. This also
makes things slightly more thread safe and more robust to bad
input (invalid error codes).
Add a GstStructure to GstElementClass and GstElementFactory. Add setters/getter.
Handle it in the registry code. Print items in gst-inspect.
Fixes#396774.
