... in addition to all the other issues that were ignored for them
already.
At least the reverse playback test regularly times out, waiting for a
download to finish that has already finished successfully.

Starting with libsoup3, there is no attempt to handle thread safety
inside the library, and it was never considered fully safe before
either. Therefore, move all session handling into its own thread.
The libsoup thread has its own context and main loop. When some
request is made or a response needs to be read, an idle source
is created to issue that; the gstreamer thread issuing that waits
for that to be complete. There is a per-src condition variable to
deal with that.
Since the thread/loop needs to be longer-lived than the soup
session itself, a wrapper object is provided to contain them. The
soup session only has a single reference, owned by the wrapper
object.
It is no longer possible to force an external session, since this
does not seem to be used anywhere within gstreamer and would be
tricky to implement; this is because one would not have to provide
just a session, but also the complete thread arrangement made in
the same way as the system currently does internally, in order to
be safe.
Messages are still built gstreamer-side. It is safe to do so until
the message is sent on the session. Headers are also processed on
the gstreamer side, which should likewise be safe.
All requests as well as reads on the libsoup thread are issued
asynchronously. That allows libsoup to schedule things with as
little blocking as possible, and means that concurrent access
to the session is possible, when sharing the session.

Intel drivers expose some colorbalance's maximum values much more
bigger than their minimum values, given their middle values (default
value). This means, in practice, that the real middle point between
the maximum and minimum values implies a major change in the color
balance, which is not expected by the GStreamer color balance logic.
This patch makes the given maximum value symmetrical to the minimum
value, given the middle one (default value).

Needed an update to the windows Dockerfile to:
1. Install the 'UniversalBuildTools' workload for Cerbero
2. Install ARM and ARM64 workloads for cross-uwp-universal in Cerbero
3. Install VS 2019 since we need that for ARM64 NEON support in Opus
We can't test UWP in gstreamer.git because glib needs custom patches
for that. It will be tested in Cerbero.

It was getting pulled in automatically via cairo, but the version
there is too old for us. We need the latest to fix Windows ARM64 NEON
support:

As now, we warn if the decoder have no support src pixel format, but that
warning is called before the type (hence the debug category) is initialized.
Fix this by moving the debug category init out of the type initialization,
into the register funcitons.
This will fix an assertion that occures in the register function and allow
relevant log to be seen by the users.

Those will cause us to renegotiate at the next aggregate cycle,
and while at that point we may decide to reconfigure upstream
branches (in practice we don't as this is inherently racy,
and that's the reason why mixer subclasses perform conversion
internally), we certainly don't want to just forward the event
willy-nilly to all our sinkpads.
An actual issue this is fixing is when caps downstream of a
compositor are changed at every samples-selected signal emission,
for the purpose of interpolating the output geometry, and the
compositor has a non-zero latency, the reconfigure events were
forwarded to basesrc, which triggered an allocation query, which
in turn caused aggregator to have to drain (thus not being able
to queue <latency> frames), leading to disastrous effects
(choppy output as compositor couldn't consume frames fast enough,
the higher the latency the choppier the output)

The merge request workflow can be confusing to people unfamiliar with
it, so add screenshots.
Also add a new section on how to revise merge requests, since a lot of
people tend to open new merge requests to make any changes.
Eliminate the separate "How to Prepare a Merge Request for Submission"
section -- merge it with the main section.

This is usually necessary to allow gst-indent to treat it as
a statement, but we do not run gst-indent on headers and we do not
have extra semicolons in other places that this macro is used in the
header. Fixes warnings when using the header:

When fixating color, there might be "other caps" with color spaces not
supported by the caps features exposed in the vapostproc's source pad
caps template (perhaps it's a bug somewhere else in GStreamer).
This solution checks if the proposed format exists in the filter
within the caps feature associated with the proposed format.
The check is done with the new filter's function
gst_va_filter_has_video_format().

In the need-data appsrc callback, a buffer is pulled from the
appsink. This buffer is then copied so that metadata is writable.
The copy is pushed to the appsrc but it doesn't take ownership
of the buffer so we need to manually unref it. The original buffer
is finally unreffed when the sample is freed.
