1) We need to lock and get a strong ref to the parent, if still there.
2) If it has gone away, we need to handle that gracefully.
This is necessary in order to safely modify a running pipeline. Has been
observed when a streaming thread is doing a buffer_alloc() while an
application thread sends an event on a pad further downstream, and from
within a pad probe (holding STREAM_LOCK) carries out the pipeline plumbing
while the streaming thread has its buffer_alloc() in progress.
On OSX, GStreamer might be built as a 'fat/universal' binary containing
both 32-bit and 64-bit code. We must take care that gst-plugin-scanner
is executed with the same architecture as the GStreamer core, otherwise
bad things may happen and core/scanner will not be able to communicate
properly.
Should fix issues with (32-bit) firefox using a 32-bit GStreamer core
which then spawns a 'universal' gst-plugin-scanner binary which gets
run in 64-bit mode, causing 100% cpu usage / busy loops or just hanging
firefox until killed.

As GST_SCHEDULING reports when buffers pass through pads due to
gst_pad_push calls, they are a good way of tracking the progress of
buffers through pipelines. As such, adding output of the buffer pointers
to these messages allows tracking of specific buffers, easing debugging.
Remove the android/ top dir
Fixe the Makefile.am to be androgenized
To build gstreamer for android we are now using androgenizer which generates the needed Android.mk files.
Androgenizer can be found here: http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=user/derek/androgenizer.git
Even if we currently do not have a duration yet, assume seekable if
it looks like we'll likely be able to determine it later on
(which coincides with needed information to perform seeking).
Fixes#641047.
Rather than a fixed default frame count, estimate frame count to aim for
an interval duration depending on fps if available, otherwise use old
fixed default.
Also add a format flag to signal baseparse that subclass/format can provide
(parsed) timestamp rather than an estimated one. In particular, such "strong"
timestamp then allows to e.g. determine duration.
Don't unref the event if it hasn't been handled, because the caller
assumes it is still valid and might reuse it.
I ran into this problem when transcoding an AVI (with mp3 inside)
to gpp.

That is, as such formats allow subclass to extract position from frame,
it is possible to extract duration (if not otherwise provided)
from (near) last frame, and a seek can fairly accurately target the required
position.
Fixes#631389.
Arrange for upstream as well as downstream flushing when seeking.
Also determine upstream size as well as seekability. Adjust some comments
to reality and employ debug statement in proper order.
