For GST_EXPORT define and also things like GST_DISABLE_REGISTRY.
Hopefully fixes the following build failure on cerbero-cross-mingw32:
helpers/gst-plugin-scanner.c:50: undefined reference to `_imp___gst_disable_registry_cache'
This static library gets included directly into libgstreamer-1.0.so, so it needs
the same GST_EXPORTS definition as the rest of the code that's compiled into
that otherwise it will try to find the constants it uses from gstinfo via DLL
importing (__declspec(dllimport)).
Fixes https://ci.gstreamer.net/job/cerbero-cross-mingw32/4393/
__declspec(dllexport/import) are supported by GCC and are needed for
properly generating code that fetches the values of constants from DLLs
built with __declspec(dllexport) which happens when anything using
GST_EXPORT is built with MSVC.
See: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/619w14ds.aspx
Essentially, if you built gstreamer with MSVC and then tried to use
constants from it (such as GST_TYPE_CAPS) in a plugin, GCC would
retrieve the address of the value instead of the value itself.
This means applications and bin sub-classes can easily track when
a new child element is added to the pipeline sub-hierarchy or
removed.
Currently doesn't signal deep added/removed for elements inside
a bin if a bin is added/removed.

Make it explicit that the pad is only blocked while the callback is running,
and the pad will be unblocked again once the callback returned.
If BLOCK and IDLE behaviour is needed, both need to be used.

When doing a transition from PLAYING to PLAYING, we will fail
to forward an EOS message on the bus, and noone else will ever
send it because there'll be no actual state changed message.
Allow EOS through directly in that case.
If there is only one pad in the internal pads, when folding for
LATENCY queries it will just drop the response if it's not live.
This is maybe not the proper fix, but it will just accept the first
peer responses, and if there are any other pads, it will only take
them into account if the response is live.
This *should* properly handle the aggregation/folding behaviour of
multiple live peer responses, while at the same time handling the
simple one-pad-only-and-forward use-case

A lot of debug categories are declared in element class_init
functions, which don't get run until the element is first created
(not just registered in the plugin load function). This means
that --gst-debug-help doesn't print out a lot of categories.
Creating an instance of each element from the element factory
makes them visible, at some extra cost - 2-3 times longer, which can
be a full second or two of extra waiting. Yikes!

When activating a pad in PULL mode, it might already be in PUSH mode. We now
first try to deactivate it from PUSH mode and then try to activate it in PULL
mode. If the activation fails, we would set the pad to flushing and set it
back to its old mode. However the old mode is wrong, the pad is not in PUSH
mode anymore but in NONE mode.
This fixes e.g. typefind in decodebin reactivating PUSH/PULL mode if upstream
actually fails to go into PULL mode after first PUSHING data to typefind.
This calls a function from another thread, asynchronously. This is to be
used for cases when a state change has to be performed from a streaming
thread, directly via gst_element_set_state() or indirectly e.g. via SEEK
events.
Calling those functions directly from the streaming thread will cause
deadlocks in many situations, as they might involve waiting for the
streaming thread to shut down from this very streaming thread.
This is mostly a convenience function around a GThreadPool and is for example
used by GstBin to continue asynchronous state changes.

Passing years > 9999, months > 12 or days > 31 to gst_date_time_new() will
cause an assertion and generally does not make much sense. Instead consider it
as a parsing error like hours > 24 and return NULL.
This previously caused uninitialized memory unless something else was
initializing all the fields explicitly to something.
To be on the safe side, we also allocate metas without init function to all
zeroes now as it was relatively common.

Checking the current element's state when we're adding pads to
the parent element is checking the wrong thing.
Silences a 'attempting to add an inactive pad to a running element'
warning when adding a ghost pad to a running parent bin of the parent
bin of the element.

This is a useful function to automatically add ghost pads when linking
two elements across bin boundaries without know their exact parentage.
e.g. when using gst_parse_bin_from_description (with or without it ghosting pads),
one can simply retreive the src/sink pads from the bin to link to another pad.
Similar functionality is provided by gst_element_link_pads{_full}() however only
by pad name rather than by actual pads.

Updated the GST_REFCOUNTING logging so that it includes the pointer
address of the object that is being disposed or finalized.
With this change is is then possible to match up GST_REFCOUNTING log messages
for object allocation/disposal/finalization. This can help with diagnosing
"memory leaks" in applications that have not correctly disposed of all the
GStreamer objects it creates.

It returned TRUE when regression failed, while not setting any of the out
parameters. This caused uninitialized data from the stack to be used for
setting the clock calibration.
PUSH and PULL mode have opposite scenarios for IDLE and BLOCK
probes.
For PUSH it will BLOCK with some data type and IDLE won't have a type.
For PULL it will BLOCK before getting some data and will be IDLE when
some data is obtained.
The check in hook_marshall was specific for PUSH mode and would cause
PULL probes to fail to be called. Adding different checks for the mode
to fix this issue.

We want to use the flag/enum nicks here, not only because they
are shorter but also because in case of element-specific enums
and flags we abuse the enum/flag name field for the description,
and we don't want that printed in the dot file.

Make compiler issue a warning for common beginner mistakes such as:
...
gst_buffer_make_writable (buf);
gst_buffer_map (buf, &map, GST_MAP_WRITE);
...
and similar. Only do this for some functions for now.
Don't keep the registry locked whilst iterating over the plugins
or features with a filter function. This would deadlock if the
callback tried to access the registry from the function. Instead,
make a copy of the feature/plugin list and then filter it without
holding the registry lock. This is still considerably faster than
the alternative which would be to use a GstIterator.

By default, gst_parse_launch_full() creates a GstPipeline if there's more
than one toplevel element. Add a flag to let it use a GstBin instead.
Also fix the parser to let it use this flag for GST_TYPE_ELEMENT property
values, to avoid having GstPipelines inside other GstPipelines.

When going from READY to NULL all element pads are deactivated. If
simultaneously the pad is being removed from the element with
gst_element_remove_pad() and the pad is unparented, there is a race
where the deactivation will assert (g_critical) if the parent is lost at
the wrong time.
The proposed fix will check parent only once and retain it to avoid the
race.
