By passing NULL to `g_signal_new` instead of a marshaller, GLib will
actually internally optimize the signal (if the marshaller is available
in GLib itself) by also setting the valist marshaller. This makes the
signal emission a bit more performant than the regular marshalling,
which still needs to box into `GValue` and call libffi in case of a
generic marshaller.
Note that for custom marshallers, one would use
`g_signal_set_va_marshaller()` with the valist marshaller instead.
Protocols that are in the stream_uris list should always
be streams, no matter what they respond to the scheduling
query. The flag in the scheduling query is just another
way to declare something that needs buffering without the
whitelist, the absence of the flag shouldn't make us ignore
our known protocol list.
Also set is_stream always to a boolean and not a mask value.
downloadbuffer element doesn't handle the properties low-watermark and
high-watermark, those are handled by queue2.
Currently hi and low watermarks are set regardless queue2 or
downloadbuffer are used. Thus, when the later is set, a warning is
raised.
This patch sets the watermark properties first, if no download.
Use the bitrate advertised by queue2 to determine the limits to
set across possibly multiple queue2/downloadbuffer elements. e.g.
with two queue2's and a max-bytes based on the ratio of the
bitrate/cumulative_bitrate multiplied by the buffer_size set on urisourcebin.
This allows finer grained control over the buffer used by all the queue
elements inside urisourcebin. Instead of a maximum of
n_streams*buffer_size being used, only buffer_size will be used however
we will fallback to n_streams*buffer_size if one of the queue2's does
not have bitrate information.

With push-based sources, urisourcebin will emit this signal when
the stream has been fully consumed.
This signal can be used to know when the source is done providing
data.
Use the intended sequence for re-using elements:
* EOS
* STREAM_START if element is to be re-used
This avoids having elements (such as queue/multiqueue/queue2) not
properly resetting themselves.
When delaying EOS propagation (because we want to wait until all
streams of a group are done for example), we re-trigger them by
first sending the cached STREAM_START and then EOS (which will
cause elements to re-set themselves if needed and accept new
buffers/events).

linked input of slot can be old input, so urisourcebin should check
eos state to figure out whether it's new one or not.
If not, urisourcebin never ever forwards EOS to downstream at the end
of presentation, because the old input is still there without removal
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777735
And only set low-percent/high-percent if not using downloadbuffer, just
like in old uridecodebin. using the watermark based buffering causes
playback to hang never finish buffering with downloadbuffer.
Add locking, and handle EOS properly now that urisourcebin
uses custom events in place of real EOS events, so we
need to manually remove buffering messages and potentially
post 100% in that situation
The expanded 4 second buffering was making radio streams that are
being delivered at real-time speeds too slow. We might need
a better plan for matching the queue2 size to incoming bitrate
in the absence of tag information or timestamping.
In uridecodebin, it used tags on the output of decodebin to
adjust the queue2 buffering, but urisourcebin doesn't have that
view - decodebin is downstream from us.
The state of urisourcebin (and all elements contained within) can
change at any point in time, including when setting up the typefind
element.
In order to avoid ending up with typefind starting without being fully
connected, lock the state and connect to the 'have-type' signal.
