gst_buffer_map () results in memcopying when a GstBuffer contains
more than one GstMemory and when AVC (length-prefixed) alignment is used.
This has quite an impact on performance on systems with limited amount of
resources. With this patch the whole GstBuffer will not be mapped at once,
instead each individual GstMemory will be iterated and mapped separately.
We expose a set of new elements:
* ULPFEC encoder / decoder
* A storage element, which should be placed before jitterbuffers,
and is used to store packets in order to attempt reconstruction
after the jitterbuffer has sent PacketLost events
* RED encoder / decoder (RFC 2198), these are necessary to
use FEC in webrtc, as browsers will propose and expect ulpfec
packets to be wrapped in red packets

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.
