The hack causes deadlocks and other interesting problems and it really
can only be fixed properly inside GLib. We will include a patch for
GLib in our builds for now that handles this, and hopefully at some
point GLib will also merge a proper solution.
A proper solution would first require to refactor the polling in
GMainContext to only provide a single fd, e.g. via epoll/kqueue
or a thread like the one added by our patch. Then this single
fd could be retrieved from the GMainContext and directly integrated
into a NSRunLoop.

Soon after setting two variables to 1, the code checks if their values are
different from each other. This would never be true. Removing this.

No need to use an iterator for this which creates a temporary
structure every time and also involves taking and releasing the
object lock many times in the course of iterating. Not to mention
all that GList handling in gst_aggregator_iterate_sinkpads().
The minimum latency is the latency we have to wait at least
to guarantee that all upstreams have produced data. The maximum
latency has no meaning like that and shouldn't be used for waiting.
When iterating sink pads to collect some data, we should take the stream lock so
we don't get stale data and possibly deadlock because of that. This fixes
a definitive deadlock in _wait_and_check() that manifests with high max
latencies in a live pipeline, and fixes other possible race conditions.
Segment start needs only to be updated when starting the streams
or after a seek, doing it during bitrate changes will cause the
running time to go discontinuous (jump back to a previous ts)
and QOS will drop buffers
This simplifies the code and also makes sure that we don't forget to check all
conditions for waiting.
Also fix a potential deadlock caused by not checking if we're actually still
running before starting to wait.
Actually we should always recalculate buffer size since our buffer size
even when not-padded is smaller for many sub-sampled formats. This is
because we don't add padding between the planes.

Problem was that if buffer was mapped READWRITE (state of buffers from
libav right now), mapping it READ/GL will not upload. This is because the
flag is only set when the buffer is unmapped. We can fix this by setting
the flags in map. This result in already mapped buffer that get mapped
to be read in GL will be uploaded. The problem is that if the write
mapper makes modification afterward, the modification will never get
uploaded.
