This can happen if this is a live pipeline and no source produced any buffer
and sent no caps until the an output buffer should've been produced according
to the latency.
When this is TRUE, we really have to produce output. This happens
in live mixing mode when we have to output something for the current
time, no matter if we have enough input or not.
Some video bitstreams report a too restrictive set of profiles. If a video
decoder was to strictly follow the indicated profile, it wouldn't support that
stream, whereas it could in theory and in practice. So we should relax the
profile restriction for allowing the decoder to get connected with parser.

When dealing with random-access content (such as files), we initially
search for the last PCR in order to figure out duration and to handle
other position estimation such as those used in seeking.
Previously, the code looking for that last PCR would search in the last
640kB of the file going forward, and stop at the first PCR encountered.
The problem with that was two-fold:
* It wouldn't really be the last PCR (it would be the first one within
those last 640kB. In case of VBR files, this would put off duration
and seek code slightly.
* It would fail on files with bitrates higher than 52Mbit/s (not common)
Instead this patch modifies that code by:
* Scanning over the last 2048kB (allows to cope with streams up to 160Mbit/s)
* Starts by the end of the file, going over chunks of 300 MPEG-TS packets
* Doesn't stop at the first PCR detected in a chunk, but instead records all
of them, and only stop searching if there was "at least" one PCR within
that chunk
This should improve duration reporting and seeking operations on VBR files

Sometimes rawparse does not handle the seeking query
properly, the rawparse should send the query upstream
first. For example, upstream could support seeking in
TIME format (but not in BYTE format), so the BYTE format
seeking query that rawparse sends in push mode would
fail.

Read PNG data chunk in one go by letting the parser
base class know the size we need, so that it doesn't
drip-feed us small chunks of data (causing a lot of
reallocs and memcpy in the process) until we have
everything.
Improves parsing performance of very large PNG files
(65MB) from ~13 seconds to a couple of millisecs.

This commit add an helper to convert a frame to frame-layer format and
use it to implement these two stream-format conversion:
- asf --> sequence-layer-frame-layer
- asf --> frame-layer
In simple/main profile, we basically have a raw frame, so building a
frame layer isn't too complicated. But in advanced profile, the first
frame-layer should contain sequence-header, entrypoint, and frame and
each keyframe should contain entrypoint, so we have to handle these
carefully.

Add an helper to check that output stream-format is coherent with
profile and header-format. It also check if we know how to do the
conversion if the input stream-format differs from selected
output-format.
So, in case output stream-format is not allowed, it will now fail at
negotiation rather than in pre_push_frame.

This commit introduces an helper to convert an ASF frame to BDUs format with
startcodes and use this helper to implements following stream-format
conversions:
- asf --> bdu
- asf --> sequence-layer-bdu
- asf --> sequence-layer-raw-frame
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=738526
It add the support of following stream-format conversion:
- bdu --> sequence-layer-bdu
- bdu-frame --> sequence-layer-bdu-frame
- frame-layer --> sequence-layer-frame-layer
For these conversion, the only requirements is to push a sequence-layer
buffer prior to data.
