At the end, Dirac streams have an EOS packet with 0 length.
Don't ever sit in an infinite loop when processing one. Allows
muxing Dirac into mkv to complete successfully.

Add Real[Audio|Video] support to Matroska containers.
It works fine for:
* decoding real audio/video streams contained in mkv
* 'transmuxing' real (.rm) files into .mkv files
It will not work though for encoding real[audio/video] streams that
don't contain the 'mdpr_data' extra data on the caps.
The reason why this will not work is because I never intended to
duplicate virtually all the 'mdpr' block creation into mkvmux.

* gst/matroska/matroska-mux.h:
Keep track of first and last timestamps for each incoming stream,
so we can calculate the total duration for live sources and other
input where we can't query the duration from the start or where
there's no constant framerate from which we can deduce the
duration; also use calculated/observed duration if it is bigger
than the previously queried duration. Furthermore, use
gst_pad_query_peer_duration() and take into account that it may
return TRUE but still a duration of CLOCK_TIME_NONE, which easily
screws up comparisons when using unsigned integers. Fixes#504081.
Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/matroska/matroska-mux.c:
(gst_matroska_mux_audio_pad_setcaps):
The "signed" field in audio caps is of boolean type, trying to use
gst_structure_get_int() to extract it will fail. Fixing this makes
matroskamux accept raw audio input (#387121) (use at your own risk
though, due to the matroska spec being not entirely useful in this
respect).
Also fix up raw audio structures in template caps so that they
represent what our setcaps function will actually accept, so that
converters know what to convert to.
Finally, don't fail if there isn't an "endianness" field in 8-bit
PCM caps.

Original commit message from CVS:
Sorry Dave... Add mpegversion=1 to mp3 caps everywhere so that the autoplugger uses mad and not faad for mp3 decoding. This should fix mp3 playback.
Original commit message from CVS:
Riff, EBML, fourcc etc. work. Not fully finished, but better than
what we used to have and definately worth a first broad testing.
I've revived rifflib. Rifflib used to be a bytestream-for-riff, which
just dup'ed bytestream. I've rewritten rifflib to be a modern riff-
chunk parser that uses bytestream fully, plus adds some extra functions
so that riff file parsing becomes extremely easy. It also contains some
small usability functions for strh/strf and metadata parsing. Note that
it doesn't use the new tagging yet, that's a TODO.
Avidemux has been rewritten to use this. I think we all agreed that
avidemux was pretty much a big mess, which is because it used all
sort of bytestream magic all around the place. It was just ugly.
This is a lot nicer, very complete and safe. I think this is far more
robust than what the old avidemux could ever have been. Of course, it
might contain bugs, please let me know.
EBML writing has also been implemented. This is useful for matroska.
I'm intending to modify avidemux (with a riffwriter) similarly. Maybe
I'll change wavparse/-enc too to use rifflib.
Lastly, several plugins have been modified to use rifflib's fourcc
parsing instead of their own. this puts fourcc parsing in one central
place, which should make it a lot simpler to add new fourccs. We might
want to move this to its own lib instead of rifflib.
Enjoy!
