Deadlock sequence:
* From a streaming thread, d3d11videosink sends synchronous message
to the parent window, so that internal (child) window can be
constructed on the parent window's thread
* App thread (parent window thread) is waiting for pipeline's
state change (to GST_STATE_NULL) but streaming thread is
blocked and waiting for app thread
To avoid the deadlock, GstD3D11WindowWin32 should send message
to the parent window asynchronously.

On macOS, a Cocoa event loop is needed in the main thread to ensure
things like opening a GL window work correctly. In the past, this was
patched into glib via Cerbero, but that prevented us from updating it.
This workaround simply runs an NSApplication and then calls the
main function on a secondary thread, allowing GStreamer to correctly
display windows and/or system permission prompts, for example.

According to comment in gst_pulsering_stream_latency_cb, latency updates
happen every 100 ms. The code in gst_pulsering_stream_latency_cb does
not care about the actual state of the ringbuffer, pbuf->acquired or
not.
Thus, every 100 ms the ringbuf->segdone may be set, even though the
object itself might be in 'destroyed' state. On next
gst_pulseringbuffer_acquire the segdone is not touched, so playback may
resume with invalid/wrong segdone value. This finally leads to a period
of silence playing after resuming the pipeline.
The problem was found on 'not-yet-released'-hardware and so far was not
reproducible on desktop computer.
Removing the callback as long as the ringbuffer is not in 'acquired'
state solves the problem reliably on the hardware device that the issue
was detected on.

Because of the asynchronous resolving of mDNS ICE candidates it is
possible that GstWebRTCICE outlives webrtcbin. This in turn prolongs
the lifetime of the GstWebRTCNiceStream objects via refs in
nice_stream_map. Thus the GstWebRTCICETransport objects held in
GstWebRTCNiceStream may be invalid at the time they are accessed by
the _on_candidate_gathering_done() callback since GstWebRTCNiceStream
doesn't take a reference to them. Doing so would create a circular
reference, so instead this commit introduces weak references to the
transport objects and then we can check if the objects are valid before

In order to do this refactoring, new variables in vabasedec have to be populated

* width and height define the resolution set in VA decoder. In the case of H264
would be de coded_width and codec_height, or max_width and max_height in AV1.
* output_info is the downstream video info used for negotiation in
gst_va_base_dec_set_output_state().

Windows supports various IPC methods but that's completely
different form that of *nix from implementation point of view.
So, instead of adding shared memory functionality to existing
shm plugin, new WIN32 shared memory source/sink elements
are implemented in this commit.
Each videosink (server) and videosrc (client) pair will communicate
using WIN32 named pipe and thus user should configure unique/proper
pipe name to them (e.g., \\.\pipe\MyPipeName).
Once connection is established, videosink will create named shared memory
object per frame and client will be able to consume the object
(i.e., memory mapped file handle) without additional copy operation.
Note that implementations under "protocol" directory are almost
pure C/C++ with WIN32 APIs except for a few defines and debug functions.
So, applications can take only the protocol part so that the application
can send/receive shared-memory object from/to the other end
even if it's not an actual GStreamer element.

This commit provides the ability to configure whether or not to update

via rtpbin. Default property value of TRUE will preserve existing

Currently, when rtspsrc property add-reference-timestamp-metadata=true,
a downstream rtph264depay element will attach multiple copies of the
same GstReferenceTimestampMeta to the depayloaded media buffers. This
can have signficant performance impacts further downstream in a pipeline
like the following:
rtspsrc add-reference-timestamp-metadata=true ! rtph264depay ! h264parse ! ... ! rtph264pay ! ...
For example, if there are 10 packet buffers for a frame of RTP H.264
video, each of those packet buffers will contain the same reference
timestamp meta. The rtph264depay element will then attach all 10
metadata to the depayloaded frame. And then later when we payload the
frame buffer again for proxying, we now have 10 more buffers each with
10 instance of the same metadata. Allocating/deallocating 100+ instances
of metadata @ 30fps for multiple streams has a pretty large performance
impact.

This was the intention from the start, just took me a few years *cough* to
actually implement it properly.
Gapless is handled by re-using as much as possible the same decoders and sinks
if present, and only pre-rolling switching at the sources level (with buffering
if/when needed).
In order to enable "gapless" playback, the "next" uri should be set at any time
between the moment the `about-to-finish` signal is emitted and the moment the
current play item is done. Previously this could only be done with the signal
emission.
This new implementation also allows "Instantaneous URI switching". This allows a
much faster way of switching playback entries while re-using as many elements as
possible. To enable this set `instant-uri` property to TRUE, the default being
FALSE.
