We have better replacements such as the mpg123 plugin.
The main reason to keep around mad was for 'freeform'
mp3 support, but mpg123 can handle those too nowadays.
Also, mad is GPL and has been unmaintained for years.

If the caps are interlaced, interlacing is always enabled on the
encoder. If the interlace-mode field is missing or if it's progressive,
the encoder uses the "interlaced" property.

x264 has to be compiled specifically for a target bit depth.
Distributions currently ship various libraries in their packages, with
different bit depths.
This change now allows to provide them all at configure time and have
the x264enc element dynamically switch between them based on the bit
depth of the input format.

Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)
* Seriously fast configure and building on embedded
... and many more. For more details see:

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
_stdint.h is generated by Autotools and we don't really need it. All
supported platforms now ship with stdint.h. The only stickler was MSVC,
and since Visual Studio 2015 it also ships stdint.h now.
Avoid compiler warnings "‘foo’ may be used uninitialized in this
function" when building with -O3 by checking the return bool value
of format conversion function.

Fix syntax errors when compiling against cerbero-provided libmpg123
headers. We do the same as the libmpg123 internal visual studio
build here.

libmpeg2 0.5.1 was released in mid-2008, let's bump the requirement
and get rid of version-dependent code paths. There's still
avdec_mpeg2video for those who are stuck on ancient distros which
we don't target any more.
Also fixes build with MSVC, which doesn't like #if #else #endif
inside macro arguments (like the GST_DEBUG_OBJECT in line 941).

rename gst-launch --> gst-launch-1.0
replace old elements with new elements(ffmpegcolorspace -> videoconvert, ffenc_** -> avenc_**)
fix caps in examples

The old code was using gst_caps_normalize() and was generally overly
complex. Simplify by picking sample rate and number of channels from
upstream and the sample format from the allowed caps. If the format caps
is a list of strins, just pick the first one. And if the srcpad isn't
linked yet, use the default format (S16).

Don't artificially limit the bitrate, x264enc allows much
higher bitrates, and for intra-only 4k AVC they are needed.
x264 clips to 2Gbps internally, so use that as limit for now.
