Otherwise we accumulate more and more queue2 elements, and let each
of them start a thread doing nothing but waiting each time uridecodebin
goes to PAUSED.

This makes it possible to take advantage of the O(log n) lookups
of GSequence on the ~1000 element lists and only do iterations
on <10 element lists. Previously the code iterated over ~1000 element
lists multiple times.
Autoplug the decoder elements and sink elements based on
the number of common capsfeatures if the ranks are the same.
This will also helps to autoplug the h/w_decoder and h/w_renderer.

Remove the byte limit for adaptive http streaming. Because some fragments might
be very big, we might need a lot of buffering. I also suspect another problem
where data is actually missing and things go out of sync somehow.
When we disable buffering in the more upstream multiqueue elements,
we need to also update the queue limits. In particular, the max_size_time should
be set to 0 or else we might simply deadlock.
When we have a scenario of demuxers linked to demuxers, decodebin2
will create multiqueue at different levels of the pipeline. The problem
is that only the lowest multiqueue's should do the buffering messaging,
as they will handle with the raw streams data.
When all multiqueues are doing buffering, the upper ones can handle
large buffers that easily fill them, moving from 0% to 100% from
buffer to buffer, causing too much buffering messages to be posted.
This hangs the pipeline unnecessarily and might lead to deadlocks.
Decodebin2's chains store a next_groups list that was being handled as
it could only have a single element. This is true for most of the
chaining streams scenarios where streams change not very often.
In more stressfull changing scenarios, like adaptive streams, those
changes can happen very often, and in short time intervals. This could
confuse decodebin2 as this list was always being used as a single
element list.
This patches makes it handle as a real list, using iteration instead
of picking the first element as the correct one always.
Even if the chain hasn't been 'handled' in this switching round,
report it as drained so upper chains/groups know abou it.
This makes switching happen on upper levels of the groups/chain
trees
If a source element could be created for a URI, but all elements rejected
the URI for some reason, propagate the error from the URI handler instead
of reporting a 'no uri handler found for protocol xyz' error, which is
confusing. Fixes error reporting with dvb:// URIs when the channel config
file could not be found or not be parsed or the channel isn't listed.

Use a scheduling query to check if the source element has some
bandwidth limitations. If this is the case on-disk buffering might be
used. If the source element doesn't handle the scheduling query then
fallback to checking the URI protocol against the hardcoded list of
protocols known to handle buffering already.
Fixes bug 693484.
The compare_factories_func() should return negative value
if the rank of both PluginFeatures are equal and the name of
first PluginFeature comes before the second one (== ascending order).
The _decode_bin_compare_factories_func() should return negative
value if the rank of both PluginFeatures are equal and the name of
first PluginFeature comes before the second one (== ascending order).
subtitleoverlay handles any caps, not just the ones
for which a subtitle parser/renderer exist. It will
just ignore any unsupported streams instead of causing
an error.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688476
Add all the caps that we can convert to to the filter caps,
otherwise downstream might just return EMPTY caps because
it doesn't handle the filter caps but we could still convert
to these caps, causing us to return EMPTY caps although
conversion would be possible.
