But only when serializing outside of GstStructures, because in case of
GstStructure the type is already preprended to the array/list and the
GstStructure API makes sure that they have the same "generic" type so
deserialization works properly.
This keeps serialization of GstStructures the same as before, and the
GstCaps unit tests already test for that. However when serializing
standalone arrays/lists get the types added now.
We would add the offset a second time in _scan_for_start_code()
when we found a result, but it's already been added to the data
pointer at the beginning of _masked_scan_uint32_peek(), so the
peeked value would be wrong if the initial offset was >0, and
we would potentially read memory out-of-bounds.
Add unit test for all of this.

The unit test defines a test parse element that inherit from GstBaseParse.
The test pipeline is: fakesrc ! testparse ! fakesink sync=1
Before the fix b2c05cac8 the first new test would have fail because the
pipeline would have wait doing nothing just after proceeded the seek event.
The second new test would have fail because the pipeline would have
played the media instantly just after proceeded the seek event
(like if sync was FALSE on the sink).

Otherwise when seeking/looping to the start when reaching the end,
the sink waits for the duration of the stream. So the user hears
nothing for the duration of the stream before it actually loop again.
See example attached to the bug for that.
Existing test:
gst-plugins-good/tests/icles/test-segment-seeks foo.flac
Without the patch the user hears a crack/cut at each seek.

New API functions to filter log messages before they are processed by
GstCheck. This can be used to discard specific messages that are
accepted by the test or to add callbacks that test specific messages.
Default bevavior when no callback is given to a filter is to discard the
message, because it does not makes sense to have a filter with no
callback which does not discard; that would be a noop.
Discarded messages will in addition to bypass the GstCheck handling also
return to GLib that the message is not fatal if it occurs.

This can easily deadlock if the element uses the object lock for
something internally, like posting an error message. Use an GstIterator
for iterating over the pads instead.

Generating those files is useful for users building the GStreamer stack
using meson and having to link it to another project which is still
using the autotools.
