audioconvert: avoid float calculations when mixing integer-formatted channels
The int matrix was using gint and gint32 synonymously, which can theoretically
cause problems if gint and gint32 are actually different types.

The patch calculates a second channel mixing matrix from the current one. The
matrix contains the original values * (2^10) as integers. This matrix is used
when integer-formatted channels are mixed.
On a ARM Cortex-A8, single core, 800MHz this improves performance in a
testcase from 29s to 9s for downmixing 6 channels to stereo.

MONO and NONE position are the same, for example, but in
general there isn't much to do here for such a conversion.
Fixes problem in audioconvert, which would end up using
a mixmatrix when converting between different mono format
because it thinks MONO positioning is different from
unpositioned channels, which is not the case in this
special case. The mixmatrix would end up being 0.0 so
audioconvert would convert to silence samples.

Rework the audio caps similar to the video caps. Remove
width/depth/endianness/signed fields and replace with a simple string
format and media type audio/x-raw.
Create a GstAudioInfo and some helper methods to parse caps.
Remove duplicate code from the ringbuffer and replace with audio info.
Use AudioInfo in the base audio filter class.
Port elements to new API.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/audioconvert/gstchannelmix.c:
(gst_channel_mix_fill_one_other):
If mixing left or right to center (or the other way around) only take
the complete value if we don't already have the original position in
the source.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst-libs/gst/audio/multichannel.c:
(gst_audio_check_channel_positions),
(gst_audio_set_structure_channel_positions_list),
(gst_audio_fixate_channel_positions):
Allow rear center together with rear left/right and other previously
conflicting channel positions. The reason why they weren't allowed
was the channel mixing implementation in audioconvert.
Also take this into account when fixing channel layouts.
Allow setting channel positions for 1/2 channels when using
gst_audio_set_structure_channel_position().
* gst/audioconvert/gstchannelmix.c:
(gst_channel_mix_fill_compatible), (gst_channel_mix_detect_pos),
(gst_channel_mix_fill_one_other), (gst_channel_mix_fill_others),
(gst_channel_mix_fill_special), (gst_channel_mix_fill_matrix):
Major rewrite of the channel mixing.
We now allow previously conflicting channel positions to appear
together (rear center and rear left/right for example).
Fixes bug #533817.
Rework the way channels are mixed together to take more possible
channel positions into account, properly mix from/to side channels
and don't assume that either center, left&right or nothing of a
specific position is available anymore.
* tests/check/elements/audioconvert.c: (GST_START_TEST):
Adjust unit tests with non-standard 1/2 channel layouts to the more
correct new behaviour.
Add a unit test for 5.1->Stereo downmixing.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/audioconvert/gstchannelmix.c: (gst_channel_mix_fill_others):
Add support for mixing GST_AUDIO_CHANNEL_POSITION_SIDE_* from/to
other channel positions when source has SIDE channels and dest doesn't
or the other way around.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/audioconvert/gstchannelmix.c:
(gst_channel_mix_fill_normalize):
Prevent division by zero if the channel mix matrix contains only
zeroes.

Add support for more than 8 channels and NONE channel layouts. For
more than 8 channels no channel conversion is supported yet, only
format conversions are supported. Fixes bug #398033.
* tests/check/elements/audioconvert.c: (verify_convert),
(GST_START_TEST), (audioconvert_suite):
Add some unit tests by Tim for checking the NONE channel layouts
and more than 8 channels and add some more unit tests for channel
conversions.

Original commit message from CVS:

Add test for the above, including some generic framework bits for
testing multichannel things.

Alloc temp storage somewhere else where we can do it more
portable.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/audioconvert/gstchannelmix.h:
include missing header file
* gst/audioconvert/gstchannelmix.c:
(gst_audio_convert_fill_compatible):
use same sign for both channels when converting to/from compatible
channel. Previously used different signs made the signals cancel
each other out and appear like silence. (fixes#167269)
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/audioconvert/gstchannelmix.c: (gst_audio_convert_mix):
more overwriting protection due to modifying channels one by one
instead of all at once
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/audioconvert/gstchannelmix.c: (gst_audio_convert_mix):
walk the samples backwards if out_channels > in_channels so we don't
overwrite data
