This is useful e.g. if audio buffers should be exactly the duration of a
video frame, or if a audio buffers should never be too large because of
latency constraints.
The element is taking a fractional buffer duration, to allow working
with e.g. 1001/30000 as output duration and it accumulates rounding
errors in the buffer durations and compensates for them by making some
buffers one sample larger than the others.

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.
