`./configure --disable-gst-tracer-hooks` didn't do anything, hooks were
always enabled regardless of the option. It works correctly in the
Meson build though.
Only hide GstTracer and GstTracerRecord API behind GST_USE_UNSTABLE_API,
but don't spew any warnings, otherwise everyone has to define this
to avoid compiler warnings.
This reverts parts of commit 89ee5d948d.
Previously we used the latter one still for the tracer utility code, causing
undefined references in the resulting binary if the debugging system was
disabled but the tracer system not.
Helps catching when a state change is starting and ending.
It is also possible to track the end of state changes by checking the
async-done or state-change messages.
This is particularly important for elements that do async state changes.
This way one can define new tracing probes without changing the core. We are
using our own quark table, as 1) we only want to initialize them if we're
tracing, 2) we want to share them with the tracers.
Instead of a single invoke() function and a 'mask', register to individual
hooks. This avoids one level of indirection and allows us to remove the
hook enums. The message enms are now renamed to hook enums.
Keep tracer base class in tracer and move core support into the utils module.
Add a unstable-api guard to the tracer.h so that external modules would need to
acknowledge the status by setting GST_USE_UNSTABLE_API.
