When parsing interlaced video streams, ignoring incoming DTS could
cause the parser to end up with PTS < DTS output buffers, for example
when increasing next_dts using the duration of the last pushed
buffer.

If a device provider fails to start (for instance the pulseaudio provider unable
to connect to the PulseAudio daemon) then the monitor should not keep track of
it in its `started` providers list. Otherwise a false positive critical warning
would be raised.
This patch also switches the started_count type from bool to int, for
consistency. This is a counter, after all.

While we can fixe the upstream latency using the min-upstream-latency, we
are now forced to use queues (hence more thread) in order to store the pending
data whenever we have an upstream source that has lower latency.
This fixes the issue by allowing to buffer the fixed upstream latency. This is
particularly handy on single core systems were having too many threads can
cause serious performance issues.

In order to support the symbol g_enum_to_string in various
project using GStreamer ( gst-validate etc.), the glib minimum
version should be 2.56.0.
Remove compat code as glib requirement
is now > 2.56

Typing hints can only be passed to gst_value_deserialize()
through the type of the passed-in value. This means deserialization
can only target the desired type for the top-level elements,
making it for example impossible to deserialize an array of
flags to the expected type.
This commit exposes a new function, gst_value_deserialize_full(),
that takes an optional pspec as the extra parameter, and updates
the deserialization code to pass around that pspec, or the
element_spec when recursively parsing the elements of a list-type
value.
This allows for example passing arrays of flags through the
command line or gst_util_set_object_arg, eg:
foo="<bar,bar+baz>"

... and update meson file so that enable it only using required headers.
"dependency(...)" is unlikely successful for Windows SDK libraries
since it doesn't ship pkg-config file. So it needs to be changed
to "find_library()" to link corresponding .lib file. That would
result to most MSVC build system will link dbghelp.dll. However,
one drawback of the change is that gstreamer-1.0.dll will mandate
dbghelp.dll although it should be optional. So g_module_open() way
can be the most safe way in this case.

Custom meta is backed by a GstStructure, and does not require
that users of the API expose their GstMeta implementation as
public API for other components to make use of it.
In addition, it provides a simpler interface by ignoring the
impl vs. api distinction that the regular API exposes.
This new API is meant to be the meta counterpart to custom events
and messages, and to be more convenient than the lower-level API
when the absolute best performance isn't a requirement.

Subsequent lookups in the hashtable are probably better done
on memory we're confident is allocated to us :)
It was easy to trigger invalid reads by calling gst_meta_register
with dynamically allocated memory, freeing that memory, then
calling gst_meta_get_info()

e.g. h264parse ! video/x-h264,stream-format=avc receives the following:
- caps: video/x-raw,stream-format=byte-stream
- gap event: baseparse tries to choose some default caps but would
override the downstream chosen caps field with upstreams value.

Some base classes like videoaggregator try retrieving the latency during
construction, which causes the latency values to be set already until
reconfiguration happens.
By resetting them the same way as in stop() we ensure that we always
start cleanly.

When going to PLAYING we will now have a clock and can stop waiting on
the condition variable and instead start waiting on the clock if
necessary for the current configuration.
In the other direction when going to PAUSED the clock might have
disappeared and we might need to wait on the condition variable again
instead.

On the first buffer the base class would update the segment position
based on the start-time-selection. If the subclass provides its own
segment this will caused unexpected behaviour and override segment
information that was explicitly set by the subclass.
