Before, the watch backlog size in GstRTSPClient was changed
dynamically between unlimited and a fixed size, trying to avoid both
unlimited memory usage and deadlocks while waiting for place in the
queue. (Some of the deadlocks were described in a long comment in
handle_request().)
In the previous commit, we changed to a fixed backlog size of 100.
This is possible, because we now handle RTP/RTCP data messages differently
from RTSP request/response messages.
The data messages are messages tunneled over TCP. We allow at most one
queued data message per stream in GstRTSPClient at a time, and
successfully sent data messages are acked by sending a "message-sent"
callback from the GstStreamTransport. Until that ack comes, the
GstRTSPStream does not call pull_sample() on its appsink, and
therefore the streaming thread in the pipeline will not be blocked
inside GstRTSPClient, waiting for a place in the queue.
pull_sample() is called when we have both an ack and a "new-sample"
signal from the appsink. Then, we know there is a buffer to write.
RTSP request/response messages are not acked in the same way as data
messages. The rest of the 100 places in the queue are used for
them. If the queue becomes full of request/response messages, we
return an error and close the connection to the client.

Change to using a fixed backlog size WATCH_BACKLOG_SIZE.
Preparation for the next commit, which changes to a different way of
avoiding both deadlocks and unlimited memory usage with the watch
backlog.
Fix race when setting up source elements.
Since we set the source element(s) to PLAYING state before hooking
them up to the downstream funnel, it's possible for the source element
to receive packets before we actually get to linking it to the funnel,
in which case buffers would be pushed out on an unlinked pad, causing
it to error out and stop receiving more data.
We fix this by blocking the source's srcpad until we have linked it.

Transport specific sink elements are added to the pipeline
in PLAY request and sockets are already created in SETUP so
it's actually wrong to require the presence of sinks in
_get_*_socket() functions.

If a multicast client requests different transport settings
than the existing one make sure that this new transport
configuruation is propagated to the multicast udp sink.

Passwords are usually not stored in clear text, but instead
stored already hashed in a .htdigest file.
Add support for parsing such files, add API to allow setting
a custom realm in RTSPAuth, and update the digest example.

When streaming data over TCP then is not the keep-alive
functionality working.
The reason is that the function do_send_data have changed
to boolean but the code is still checking the received result
from send_func with GST_RTSP_OK.
The result is that a successful send_func will always lead to
that do_send_data is returning false and the keep-alive will
not be updated.

This reverts commit 3d275b1345.
While RFC 3264 (SDP) says that sendonly/recvonly are from the point of view of
the requester, the actual RTSP RFCs (RFC 2326 / 7826) disagree and say
the opposite, just like the ONVIF standard.
Let's follow those RFCs as we're doing RTSP here, and add a property at
a later time if needed to switch to the SDP RFC behaviour.

If the media is complete, i.e. one or more streams have been configured
with sinks, then we want to query the position on those streams only.
A query on an incomplete stream may return a position that originates from
an earlier preroll.

Added it right before pushing the previous commit, it is
incorrect and deadlocks because this function gets called
from the join_bin thread, which already holds the lock,
that's the reason why request_aux_sender didn't take the
lock either.
"do-retransmission" was previously set when rtx-time != 0,
which made no sense as do-retransmission is used to enable
the sending of retransmission requests, where as rtx-time
is used by the peer to enable storing of buffers in order
to respond to retransmission requests.
rtsp-media now also provides a callback for the
request-aux-receiver signal.

We need different export decorators for the different libs.
For now no actual change though, just rename before the release,
and add prelude headers to define the new decorator to GST_EXPORT.
This allows us to later map signals from rtpbin/rtpsource back to the
corresponding stream transport, and allows to do keep-alive based on
RTCP packets in case of TCP media transport.

The test_record case was working because async=false had
been added in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=757488
but that was incorrect, as it should not be needed.
Removing async=false made the test fail as expected, this is
fixed by not trying to preroll when preparing the media for
RECORD, as start_prepare is called upon receiving ANNOUNCE,
and our peer will not start sending media until it has received
a response to that request, and sent and received a response
to RECORD as well, thus obviously preventing preroll.

res is a boolean variable which is defined in the function scope and
redefined, with no reason, in the loop scope. This patch removes the
redefinition.

...and replace all checks for RECORD in GstRTSPMedia which are really
for "sender-only". This way the code becomes more generic and introducing
support for onvif-backchannel later on will require no changes in
GstRTSPMedia.
They are wrong in the ONVIF streaming spec. The backchannel should be
recvonly and the normal media should be sendonly: direction is always
from the point of view of the SDP offerer (the server) according to
RFC 3264.
This adds a new RTSP server, client, media-factory and media subclass
for handling the specifics of the backchannel. Ideally this later can be
extended with other ONVIF specific features.
