The internal proxy pad target is simply a cache of the internal proxy pad
peer. This patch uses the well implement GstPad peer handling to obtain the
target. This fixes issues with target not being set in both direction when
two ghostpads are linked together (empty bin).

This allows to get the internal pad of ghostpads and
proxypads without using gst_pad_iterate_internal_links()
and is much more convenient.
The internal pad of a ghostpad is the pad of the opposite direction
that is used to link to the ghostpad target.
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.
Since everything GstXML related has been deprecated, we can now skip the
libxml includes from the public headers when GST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED is
defined.
See #463435.
Pipeline serialisation to and from XML is horribly broken for all
but the most simple use cases, and will likely never be fixed.
Make sure everyone playing around with these tools is aware of
this, to avoid frustration. See countless bug reports in bugzilla.
Fixes bug #622685.
This makes ghostpad/proxypad creation 5 times faster and avoids contention
over the global funcptr lock.
I also moved the two class init down in the code to avoid having to forward
declare all the various functions.
There's not much point in using GST_DEBUG_FUNCPTR with GObject
virtual functions such as get_property, set_propery, finalize and
dispose, since they'll never be used by anyone anyway. Saves a
few bytes and possibly a tenth of a polar bear.
In most places in core and baseclasses we just need the caps to do caps-
intersections. In that case ref'ed caps are enough (no need to copy).
This patch also switches the code to use the new functions.
API: gst_pad_get_caps_refed(), gst_pad_peer_get_caps_refed()
We don't need the hold the proxy mutex locked for getting the internal pad and
for linking the new target pad when we retarget. So take the lock a little later
and release it earlier.
Fixes#596366
Before the signal handler would get the ghostpad passed as second
argument but it could've already been unreffed and destroyed.
This would then lead to crashes and all that.
Now we get the ghostpad from the proxy pad, which we get from the
target pad as it's peer.
Fixes bug #591318.
When the target pad disappears (because it was explicitly unlinked or the
element was removed/unreffed) make sure we receive a notify with the unlink
function on the proxy pad and clear the target. We use a simple flag to not do
this and cause deadlocks when the target was changed explicitly using the
ghostpad functions.
Update the unit test because we now unref the target sooner (and correctly).
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gstghostpad.c:
* tests/check/gst/gstghostpad.c:
Don't forward gst_pad_set_caps() on a source ghostpad to its target.
That would cause the ghostpad to emit notify::caps two times (fist
from gst_pad_set_caps() and after from on_src_target_notify()).
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/gstghostpad.c:
* tests/check/gst/gstghostpad.c:
In a source ghostpad, when caps are changed in the target pad, the
change needs to be reflected in the ghostpad.
Fixes#564863.
