The subsegment boundary return tells the adaptivedemux that it can
try to switch to another representation as the stream is at a suitable
position for starting from another bitrate.
In order to get some subsegment information, subclasses might want
to download only the headers to have enough data (the index)
to decide where to start downloading from the subsegment.
This allows the subclasses to know if the chunks that are downloaded are
part of the header or of the index and will parse the parts that are
of their interest.
Ensure that we do not trust the bitstream when filling a table
with a fixed max size.
Additionally, the code was not quite matching what the spec says:
- a value of 3 broke from the loop before adding an entry
- an unhandled value did not add an entry
The reference algorithm does these things differently (7.3.3.1
in ITU-T Rec. H.264 (05/2003)).
This plays (apparently correctly) the original repro file, with
no stack smashing.
Based on a patch and bug report by André Draszik <git@andred.net>
The hack causes deadlocks and other interesting problems and it really
can only be fixed properly inside GLib. We will include a patch for
GLib in our builds for now that handles this, and hopefully at some
point GLib will also merge a proper solution.
A proper solution would first require to refactor the polling in
GMainContext to only provide a single fd, e.g. via epoll/kqueue
or a thread like the one added by our patch. Then this single
fd could be retrieved from the GMainContext and directly integrated
into a NSRunLoop.

Soon after setting two variables to 1, the code checks if their values are
different from each other. This would never be true. Removing this.

No need to use an iterator for this which creates a temporary
structure every time and also involves taking and releasing the
object lock many times in the course of iterating. Not to mention
all that GList handling in gst_aggregator_iterate_sinkpads().
The minimum latency is the latency we have to wait at least
to guarantee that all upstreams have produced data. The maximum
latency has no meaning like that and shouldn't be used for waiting.
When iterating sink pads to collect some data, we should take the stream lock so
we don't get stale data and possibly deadlock because of that. This fixes
a definitive deadlock in _wait_and_check() that manifests with high max
latencies in a live pipeline, and fixes other possible race conditions.
