Since we started depending on GLib 2.44, we can be sure this macro is
defined (it will be a no-op on compilers that don't support it). For
plugins we should just start using `G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE` which means
we no longer need the macro there, but for most types in core we don't
want to break ABI, which means it's better to just keep it like it is
(and use the `#ifdef` instead).
* Making sure that `static inline` function are in the GIR (by first
defining them, and make sure to mark as skiped)
* Do not try to link to unexisting symbols
* Also generate GIR information about gst_tracers
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.
Make compiler issue a warning for common beginner mistakes such as:
...
gst_buffer_make_writable (buf);
gst_buffer_map (buf, &map, GST_MAP_WRITE);
...
and similar. Only do this for some functions for now.
There was few Since: mark missing their column. Also unify the way
we set the Since mark on enum value and structure members. These
sadly don't show up in the index.

Provide the memory implementation the GstMapInfo that will be used to
map/unmap the memory. This allows the memory implementation to use
some scratch space in GstMapInfo to e.g. track different map/unmap
behaviour or store extra implementation defined data about the map
in use.

There are gstmemory's available that operate in two memory domains
and need to ensure consistent access between these domains.
Imagine a scenario where e.g. the GLMemory is mapped twice in both
the GPU and the CPU domain. On unmap or a subsequent map, it would
like to ensure that the most recent data is available in the memory
domain requested. Either by flushing the writes and/or initiating a
DMA transfer. Without knowing which domain is being unmapped, the
memory does not know where the most recent data is to transfer to
the other memory domain.
Note: this still does not allow downgrading a memory map.

Make GstAllocator a GstObject instead of a GstMiniObject, like bufferpool.
Make a new gstallocator.c file. Make a GstAllocator subclass for the default
allocator.
Expose the GstAllocation structure and provide an _init function. This makes it
easier to make 'subclasses' of the allocator that contain more info.
It also allows us to expose the flags on the allocator miniobject.
Make a flag to note that the allocator uses a custom alloc function.
Add a method that memory implementations can call to initialize the standard
GstMemory structure.
Move the parent handling in the _free handler.
Rearrange some internal function parameters so that the order is consistent.
Add more memory examples
Move the locking methods from GstMemory to GstMiniObject.
Add a miniobject flag to enable LOCKABLE objects. LOCKABLE objects can
use the lock/unlock API to control the access to the object.
Add a minobject flag that allows you to lock an object in readonly mode.
Modify the _is_writable() method to check the shared counter for LOCKABLE
objects. This allows us to control writability separately from the refcount for
LOCKABLE objects.
We implement the locking in gst_memory_map with the lock flags, make matching
flags the same number so that we can use the map flags directly as lock flags.
Expose the internally used methods for locking and unlocking the object. Pass
the access mode to the unlock function for extra checks and because we need it
for the EXCLUSIVE locks.
Make some new defines to specify the desired locking.
Add a new EXCLUSIVE lock mode which will increment the shared counter. Objects
with a shared counter > 1 will not be lockable in WRITE mode.
Group the extra allocation parameters in a GstAllocationParams structure to make
it easier to deal with them and so that we can extend them later if needed.
Make gst_buffer_new_allocate() take the GstAllocationParams for added
functionality.
Add boxed type for GstAllocationParams.
Change gst_allocator_alloc() so that we can also spicify flags and padding.
Add 2 new flags to mark the memory 0 prefixed/padded. This allows us to
remove some resizes in the base classes.
When allocating memory, memset prefix and padding with 0 when the flags tell
us to.
On resize, clear the zero padding flags if we can't guarantee the memory is
still 0 filled.
Update tests.
Make it possible to configure a GDestroyNotify and user_data for
gst_memory_new_wrapped() this allows for more flexible wrapping of foreign
memory blocks.
