The case is properly handled a few lines below by dropping the buffer.
We shouldn't perpetually block the audio chain function until the
target-timecode is reached.

It works like a valve in front of the actual avwait. When recording ==
TRUE, other rules are then examined. When recording == FALSE, nothing is
passing through.

"avwait-status" is posted when avwait starts or stops passing through
data (e.g. because target-timecode and end-timecode respectively have
been reached). The attached structure includes a "dropping" boolean (set
to TRUE if we are currently dropping data, FALSE otherwise), and a
"running-time" GST_CLOCK_TIME which contains the running time of the
change.

A deserialised timecode has a framerate of 0/1 by default. That breaks
it when comparing the frames field with another timecode (incoming from
the frame). We were setting the framerate when receiving the caps event,
but not when setting the timecode in set_property, so it was broken for
timecodes set after the caps event.
Also checking if the fps_n we got from the caps event is != 0 before
setting it - also at the caps event.

Now that timecodes support proper serialisation / deserialisation, a
timecode might have an invalid fps_n / fps_d even without using the
target-time-code-string property. Detect those cases and set fps_n/fps_d
properly.
If end_tc is NULL, it means that we don't want avwait to stop at any
timecode. When explicitly setting end_tc to NULL, there is no point in
comparing end_tc with start_tc (to see if we'll reject end_tc for being
before start_tc), so the check in question is completely disabled
instead of letting it crash.
avwait can now be configured to stop when a given timecode has been
reached. It will start at the timecode indicated with start-timecode and
end at the timecode indicated with end-timecode. If end-timecode is
NULL (default), the previous functionality is preserved: keep going and
not end.
