Move the convert_frame function to playsink and make it part of the API. This is
in preparation to add the convert_frame signal to playsink.
See #620279
If a file contains raw streams (not requiring a decoder) that we do
not want (expose-all-streams == FALSE), we would previously consider
those of unknown-type (missing a decoder) ... whereas in fact it was just
because they don't need decoders.
This only applies if expose-all-streams is FALSE.
API : expose-all-streams
If disabled:
* only the streams that CAN be decoded and match the final caps will have a
decoder plugged in and be exposed.
* the streams that COULD HAVE BEEN decoded but do not match the finals caps
will not have a decoder plugged in and will not be exposed.
If no decoder is available to decode a certain stream, then the missing element
message will still be emitted regardless of the value of the property.

Unreffing it whenever the sinks are removed will make the volume
element unavailable after a playbin reuse because it is only
recreated if the audio sink has changed.
Fixes bug #614288.
Change playbin2 to not error out if there are subtitles and audio
but no video. If visualizations are enabled the subtitles are rendered on top
of the visualization stream, otherwise the subtitles are not linked at all and
only the audio is played (and a warning message is posted).
If there are only subtitles but neither audio nor video an error message is
still posted.
Fixes bug #610866.
For this add subtitle encoding properties to playsink and subtitleoverlay
and update the values in the containing elements.
Also update the font description in textoverlay or the used renderer
element if it is changed during playback.
Fixes bug #610310.
Use the same translated message string for missing core elements as
playbin uses, which is a bit nicer and also indicates that there is
something wrong with the user's GStreamer installation (which arguably
is the case if elements like typefind or queue2 are missing).
Otherwise the ghostpad will still be linked to the peer and there
will still be a reference kept, leading to nothing being unlinked
and destroyed until decodebin2 is finalized.
This fixes reuse of decodebin2 if a raw stream is connected to
its sinkpad.
This makes sure that we don't destroy the last reference before the
element gets back to NULL state. Fixes assertion failures if a playbin2
instance is reused but different sinks are automatically chosen because
of different caps.
This reverts commit 7335ce5d3e.
Support abusing the uri property to configure the next uri to play
outside of the about-to-finish handler for the time being after all.
We also shouldn't use thread private structures for this, since it
should be possible to block the thread that emitted about-to-finish
while the main thread sets the uri property. See #607226.
