Ensures that all unused threads are exited before the atexit()
handlers run.
This prevents a race with any thread that used the OpenSSL library
between it's thread cleanup routine and it's atexit() cleanup routine
which can cause a SIGSEGV.

The name `gst_element_get_request_pad()` is confusing to people
learning GStreamer. `gst_element_request_pad_simple()` aims at
providing the exact same functionality, while making it more
explicit it is a simplified `gst_element_request_pad()`.
`gst_element_request_pad_simple()` is consistent with other
functions such as `gst_element_seek_simple`.
This commit deprecates `gst_element_get_request_pad()` so that a
compilation warning is emitted when used and incite developers
to use the more explicit `gst_element_request_pad_simple()`.

As soon as gstcheck potentially calls out to code it does not
control, such as gst_element_request_pad, all assertions about
pad refcounts go out the window.
If the expected size is bigger than the actual buffer size, it would
memcmp random memory which could lead to crashes instead of proper error
reporting.
gstcheck.c:142: Warning: GstCheck: gst_check_add_log_filter: return value: Invalid non-constant return of bare structure or union; register as boxed type or (skip)
gstcheck.h:178: Warning: GstCheck: gst_check_run_suite: argument suite: Unresolved type: 'Suite*'
Instead, use -fvisibility=hidden and explicit exports via GST_EXPORT.
This should result in consistent behaviour for the autotools and
Meson builds where this is done already, and will allow us to drop
the win32 .def files.
New API functions to filter log messages before they are processed by
GstCheck. This can be used to discard specific messages that are
accepted by the test or to add callbacks that test specific messages.
Default bevavior when no callback is given to a filter is to discard the
message, because it does not makes sense to have a filter with no
callback which does not discard; that would be a noop.
Discarded messages will in addition to bypass the GstCheck handling also
return to GLib that the message is not fatal if it occurs.

Broke this when I removed the G_GNUC_PRINTF in a previous
commit to fix indentation, since it was not really needed.
Turns out unlike gcc clang warns though if a non-literal
format string is passed then. Fix indentation differently.

TRUE is 1, but every other non-zero value is also considered true. Comparing
for equality with TRUE would only consider 1 but not the others.
Also normalize booleans in a few places.
Add a method letting people to ensure that unreffing one object
leads to its destruction, and possibly the destruction of more object
(think destruction of a GstBin etc...).

* GstGlobalDeviceMonitor was renamed to GstDeviceMonitor
* Expand GST_MESSAGE_DEVICE to the full enum value names
* Correct the incorrect references to the GstDeviceProvider interfaces
* Describe caps arguments for gstcheck interface
* Add missing docs for GstNetAddressMeta and its add function
* Add docs for toc helper macros
* Avoid refering to GstValueList type as done elsewhere
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=732786
GST_CHECKS can be simply "test*" to run run all tests (including those that are
marked broken). Update the sparse comments a bit to tell how this works.
