low/high-watermark are of type double, and given in range 0.0-1.0. This
makes it possible to set low/high watermarks with greater resolution,
which is useful with large queue2 max sizes and watermarks like 0.5%.
Also adding a test to check the fill and watermark level behavior.

The use-tags-bitrate property makes queue2 look at
tag events in the stream and extract a bitrate for the
stream to use when calculating a duration for buffers
that don't have one explicitly set.
This lets queue2 sensibly buffer to a time threshold
for any bytestream for which the general bitrate is known.
It might cause deadlocks to post messages while holding the queue2
lock. To avoid this a new boolean flag is set whenever a new
buffering percent is found. The message is posted after the lock
is released.
To make sure the buffering messages are posted in the right order, messages
are posted holding another lock. This prevents 2 threads trying to post
messages at the same time.

The qlock is released between popping a buffer from the queue
and pushing it. When this buffer causes the sink to wait in
preroll, this lets a query see that the queue is empty, and
push the query then wait for it to be serviced. However, this
will not be done till after peroll, and this will thus block.
If upstream was waiting on buffering to reach 100% before
switching to PLAYING, a deadlock would ensue.
This had been fixed recently by failing queries when the
queue2 was buffering, but this happens to break some other
case (playbin on a local http server and matroska), while
this patch works for both.

Set the seeking flag right before we send a seek event upstream and discard all
data untill we see a flush-stop again. We need to do this because we activate
the range that we seek to immediately after sending the seek event and it is
possible that we receive data in our chain function from before the seek
which would then be added to the wrong range resulting in data corruption.
Other than saving an immense amount of 4 bytes of memory this
prevents clang from complaining and keeps the ring buffer state
in a single variable instead of two.
If downstream is operating in pull mode, short-circuit any pulls beyond
the end of the file and return FLOW_UNEXPECTED immediately instead of
sending a seek beyond the end of the file upstream, since this might
confuse upstream elements (and/or http servers, for example). Fixes
playback of apple trailers in totem and youtube/html5 clips in
WebkitGTK+.

Maintain a separate variable to control src and sink flowreturn values so that
we can unlock the src part without shutting down the sink part.
Add flushing for upstream pull based elements that unblocks our getrange
function. This implements seeking when blocking for more data.
Add some arbitrary threshold before attempting a seek. Add a FIXME for this
because we need to find a sensible threshold based on the input rate.
When in download mode and the requested offset is too far away, attempt to do a
seek request to fetch the data.
Keep track of all downloaded parts and merge ranges when needed.
Fixes#600877
Add an option to automatically remove the temp file (TRUE by default). This
should make it possible for the application to keep the temp file by other means
than hardlinking or holding an fd open.
Fixes#607739
