In some scenarios, for example in QtWebKit, might be difficult to obtain full
control on the egl display and it might be only accessible indirectly via
eglGetCurrentDisplay().

We only want to adjust the timestamps so that they start from 0 for live
streams. Non-live streams already start from 0 and after a seek we actually want
to timestamp to be the position we seek to.
Non-live streams should timestamp buffers with a running-time starting from
0. Since we already push a 0 -> -1 segment, bring the timestamps to 0
by subtracting the initial timestamp.
The xmlCleanupParser function seems to cleanup all statically
allocated libxml variables, making it unusable. We can't guarantee
that dashdemux won't need it anymore, so better not call it.
Manifest updates should be done periodically for live streams,
this patch makes the demuxer create a new manifest client for
the new version and transfers the stream position to the new
one, discarding the old one afterwards.
A small struct that keeps a short history of fragment download bitrates
to have an average measure of N last fragments instead of using only
the last downloaded bitrate
Do not use a global bitrate as the sizes of the fragments matter
when calculating the download rate as the connection setup time is
also being taken into the download duration, a smaller fragment
will have a lower bitrate than a larger one.
This avoids switching the bitrates for streams frequently because
of bitrate mismatches
Instead of downloading 1 fragment per stream per download loop,
select the stream with the earlier timestamp and get a fragment
only for that one.
The old algorithm would lead to problems when the fragment durations
were too different for streams.
dashdemux shouldn't emit the buffering message as that can pause
the pipeline. It has no proper knowledge of the downstream buffering
status so it can pause the pipeline when it isn't necessary. It should
have an internal buffer for downloading the streams ahead of playback,
but that shouldn't make it able to stop the pipeline for buffering.
A particular case in which this is bad is when a pad switch happens
(changing bitrates for example), the new pads dashdemux creates
will get linked to demuxers and new queues will be created,
these queues are initially empty and dashdemux will quickly
drain its buffers by pushing them to those queues. So it
would have no more buffers internally and would emit a
buffering message with a low ratio, causing the pipeline
to pause when it wouldn't be necessary.
Put EOS on the streams queues after the last fragment from the
last period for each stream. This way we keep it serialized
with the buffers and it will work when streams have different
ending times
The smallest queue should be used to prevent blocking the download
thread when a stream has too much data buffered, leaving the other
streams starving from fragments
