Before we were setting them to PAUSED and (much) later connecting to
their source pad caps notify signal.
There was a race where that demuxer was pushing a caps and later a buffer
on its source pad when we were not even connected to its source pad caps notify
signal leading to decodebin missing the information and not keeping on
building the pipeline on CAPS event thus the demuxer was posting an ERROR
(not linked) message on the bus. This need to be done for 'simple
demuxers' because those have one ALWAYS source pad, not like usual demuxers
that have several dynamic source pads.
A "simple demuxer" is a demuxer that has one and only one ALWAYS source
pad.

There was a race where:
1) we would put the element to PAUSED
2) It would get data sent to it from upstream
3) It would thus send caps
3) caps_notify_cb would continue autoplugging
4) caps would flow downstream, the last pad would get exposed
5) we were still not done sending the sticky events
Taking the stream lock on the new element's sinkpad and only
releasing it when sticky events have all been sent prevents
the caps from reaching the source pad of the element before
we're all set.

Otherwise the following can happen:
1. set mute=true
2. play media1 (Ok)
3. play media without audio (audiochain removed)
4. play media2 (audiochain created, mute=*false*)

If there are two parser elements available for the same media format,
then decodebin is autoplugging an extra capsfilter and parser irrespective
of caps and rank. So restrict the decodebin from autoplugging multiple parser
elements back to back in adjacent positions with in a single DecodeChain
for the same media format.

The "iradio-mode" property used to have a default FALSE value in HTTP
source elements but now it should default to TRUE or just do not exist
as a property so it is not really needed to set it any more in
uridecodebin.
Apart from that this code could've never worked as uridecodebin looks for a
string-typed iradio-mode property, but it's a boolean in all sources.

audioresample and videoscale is something the application will have to do if
required, but we can at least help here by adding the
audioconvert/videoconvert elements.

When switching URI from about-to-finish, playbin starts decoding the new
URI and the queue2 inside uridecodebin starts emitting buffering messages
immediately. However, the queue(s) inside playsink still have buffers to
play and the pipeline doesn't need to pause for buffering, so we should
not send those buffering messages up to the application, otherwise there
is an audible glitch caused by pausing the pipeline for a very short time.

If we had plugins and an error occurred we only include the error message
caused by this, otherwise we will include the codec description as generated
from the caps.
This allows to detect which exact codec was missing instead of getting a
generic "no suitable decoders found" error message.
Otherwise we might change some capsfeatures from ANY to the specific
value from the filter and do not filter those out in case the
sink doesn't support them

Gracefully handle switching groups that all pads are deadend.
This can happen when quickly switching programs on mpegts as the
output is unaligned it can happen that not enough data was accumulated at
parsers to generate any buffers, causing the stream to receive EOS before
any data can be decoded.
To handle this scenario, the _expose function now also gets if there is
any next group to be exposed along with the list of endpads. If there are
no endpads and there is another group to expose it will switch to this next
group and then retry exposing the streams.
Also, the requirement to only switch from the chain that has the endpad had
to be modified to care for when the drainpad is NULL

Unsetting DISCONT flag means we need to copy the buffer. This copy operation
mandates that all GstMemory should be copy-able which is not always the case

We now add all our elements to uridecodebin *after*
GstBin::change_state(READY->PAUSED), so we need to post async-start
and async-done messages ourselves if we want to work async.

otherwise we're going to
a) start Parser/Converter before they are linked to their capsfilter,
breaking their negotiation of a proper stream format
b) start demuxers without having connected to their pad-added signals. We
miss pads and in the worst case don't link any pads at all
... and if this fails for whatever reason we skip the element and instead
try with the next element. This allows us to handle elements that fail
when setting caps on them by just skipping to the next alternative element.
They might fail to go to PAUSED, and when connecting them further
we might already expose their srcpads on decodebin if we're unlucky.
This prevents us to handle failures going to PAUSED gracefully.
If the caps query returned us fixed caps this doesn't mean yet
that these caps are actually complete (fields might be missing).
It allows to do us some decisions, but the selection of the next
element should be delayed as only complete caps allow proper selection
of the next element.
Otherwise we might try to continue autoplugging e.g. for a specific
stream-format although the parser could convert to something else, thus giving
us potentially less options for decoders.
