This previously caused uninitialized memory unless something else was
initializing all the fields explicitly to something.
To be on the safe side, we also allocate metas without init function to all
zeroes now as it was relatively common.

Checking the current element's state when we're adding pads to
the parent element is checking the wrong thing.
Silences a 'attempting to add an inactive pad to a running element'
warning when adding a ghost pad to a running parent bin of the parent
bin of the element.

This is a useful function to automatically add ghost pads when linking
two elements across bin boundaries without know their exact parentage.
e.g. when using gst_parse_bin_from_description (with or without it ghosting pads),
one can simply retreive the src/sink pads from the bin to link to another pad.
Similar functionality is provided by gst_element_link_pads{_full}() however only
by pad name rather than by actual pads.

Updated the GST_REFCOUNTING logging so that it includes the pointer
address of the object that is being disposed or finalized.
With this change is is then possible to match up GST_REFCOUNTING log messages
for object allocation/disposal/finalization. This can help with diagnosing
"memory leaks" in applications that have not correctly disposed of all the
GStreamer objects it creates.

It returned TRUE when regression failed, while not setting any of the out
parameters. This caused uninitialized data from the stack to be used for
setting the clock calibration.
PUSH and PULL mode have opposite scenarios for IDLE and BLOCK
probes.
For PUSH it will BLOCK with some data type and IDLE won't have a type.
For PULL it will BLOCK before getting some data and will be IDLE when
some data is obtained.
The check in hook_marshall was specific for PUSH mode and would cause
PULL probes to fail to be called. Adding different checks for the mode
to fix this issue.

We want to use the flag/enum nicks here, not only because they
are shorter but also because in case of element-specific enums
and flags we abuse the enum/flag name field for the description,
and we don't want that printed in the dot file.

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.
Don't keep the registry locked whilst iterating over the plugins
or features with a filter function. This would deadlock if the
callback tried to access the registry from the function. Instead,
make a copy of the feature/plugin list and then filter it without
holding the registry lock. This is still considerably faster than
the alternative which would be to use a GstIterator.

By default, gst_parse_launch_full() creates a GstPipeline if there's more
than one toplevel element. Add a flag to let it use a GstBin instead.
Also fix the parser to let it use this flag for GST_TYPE_ELEMENT property
values, to avoid having GstPipelines inside other GstPipelines.

When going from READY to NULL all element pads are deactivated. If
simultaneously the pad is being removed from the element with
gst_element_remove_pad() and the pad is unparented, there is a race
where the deactivation will assert (g_critical) if the parent is lost at
the wrong time.
The proposed fix will check parent only once and retain it to avoid the
race.

First load all system presets, then all from the environment variable, then
from the app directory, then from the user directory. Any one in the chain
with the highest version completely replaces all previous ones, later ones
with lower versions are merged in without replacing existing presets.
This is basically the same behaviour as before, just that GST_PRESET_PATH is
inserted as another source of directories between the system and app presets.
It was added in ca08af1f17, but was
accidentially overriding the user preset path there. Which caused inconsistent
behaviour as new presets were still stored in the system path, just not loaded
from there. Meaning you could store a new preset (in the user path), just for
GstPreset to not find it anymore later (because it only looked in the
GST_PRESET_PATH instead of the user path).

The alias define GST_TYPE_PARENT_BUFFER_META_API_TYPE is wrong and
breaks the usage of gst_buffer_get_parent_buffer_meta().
This patch fixes the GType alias and make another alias to keep the API
compatibility guarded by GST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED.
Also added a unit test.

gst_structure_new_empty() is not returning NULL in any valid scenarios,
checking for NULL here is useless. Especially because we would dereference any
NULL right after the NULL check again.
CID 1352037.
We previously check if the string ends on .class, as such strrchr() should
return something non-NULL. Add an assertion for that.
CID 1349642.
Pretty much every single element does
gst_element_class_add_pad_template (element_class,
gst_static_pad_template_get (&some_templ));
which is both confusing and unnecessary. We might just
as well add a function to do that in one step.

When holding a regular ref it will cause the GstBus to never
reach 0 references and it won't be destroyed unless the application
explicitly calls gst_bus_remove_signal_watch().
Switching to weakref will allow the GstBus to be destroyed.
The application is still responsible for destroying the
GSource.

This reverts commit b427997119.
It breaks things that used to work before, even if the change by itself is
correct and the previous code is just working around deeper bugs in the async
state change code. Let's go back to what previously worked and then fix async
state changes in general.

When calling gst_pad_activate_mode() on a ghostpad
gst_ghost_pad_activate_push_default() will be called. This will call
gst_pad_activate_mode() on the proxypad (which is internal of the
ghostpad), calling gst_ghost_pad_internal_activate_push_default(), which
again will call gst_pad_activate_mode() on the original ghostpad.
By simply returning TRUE in
gst_ghost_pad_internal_activate_push_default() the redundant call to
gst_pad_activate_mode() (for the same pad) is avoided.
