Estimating it from the RTP time will give us the PTS, so in cases of PTS!=DTS
we would produce wrong DTS. As now the estimated DTS is based on the clock,
don't store it in the jitterbuffer items as it would otherwise be used in the
skew calculations and would influence the results. We only really need the DTS
for timer calculations.

The amount of time that is completely expired and not worth waiting for,
is the duration of the packets in the gap (gap * duration) - the
latency (size) of the jitterbuffer (priv->latency_ns). This is the duration
that we make a "multi-lost" packet for.
The "late" concept made some sense in 0.10 as it reflected that a buffer
coming in had not been waited for at all, but had a timestamp that was
outside the jitterbuffer to wait for. With the rewrite of the waiting
(timeout) mechanism in 1.0, this no longer makes any sense, and the
variable no longer reflects anything meaningful (num > 0 is useless,
the duration is what matters)
Fixed up the tests that had been slightly modified in 1.0 to allow faulty
behavior to sneak in, and port some of them to use GstHarness.

This reverts commit 05bd708fc5.
The reverted patch is wrong and introduces a regression because there
may still be time to receive some of the packets included in the gap
if they are reordered.
If we have a clock, update "now" now with the very latest running time we have.
If timers are unscheduled below we otherwise wouldn't update now (it's only updated
when timers expire), and also for the very first loop iteration now would otherwise
always be 0.
Also the time is used for the timeout functions, e.g. to calculate any times
for the next timeouts and we would otherwise pass too old times there.

This reverts commit 0c21cd7177.
If we have multiple immediate timers, we want to first handle the one with the
lowest sequence number... which would be broken now.
Instead of this we should just use a GSequence for the timers, and have them
sorted first by timestamp, and for equal timestamps by sequence number. Then
we would always only have to take the very first timer from the list and never
have to look at any others.
It might just be a late retransmission or spurious packet from elsewhere, but
resetting everything would mean that we will cause a noticeable hickup. Let's
get some confidence first that the sequence numbers changed for whatever
reason.

We now take the maximum of 2*jitter and 0.5*packet_spacing for the extra
delay. If jitter is very low, this should prevent unnecessary retransmission
requests to some degree.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748041
Right above we consider lost_packet packets, each of them having duration,
as lost and triggered their timers immediately. Below we use expected_dts
to schedule retransmission or schedule lost timers for the packets that
come after expected_dts.
As we just triggered lost_packets packets as lost, there's no point in
scheduling new timers for them and we can just skip over all lost packets.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=739868
Resetting the jitterbuffer drops all packets and other things, and will cause
a discontinuity in the packets received by the depayloaders. They should now
also flush anything they had pending as the new data will start at a different
position.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=739868
These are outside the expected range of sequence numbers and should be
clipped, especially for RTSP they might belong to packets from before a seek
or a previous stream in general.
We (currently?) can't really handle gaps between RTP packets if they're not
properly timestamped. The current code would go into calculations with
GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE and then cause assertions everywhere. It's probably
better to error out cleanly instead.
We used to setup an iterator with 1 GValue set with a NULL object
pointer which is not the normal way to do that. Instead we should make
sure that the first call to gst_iterator_next returns GST_ITERATOR_DONE.
When the RTT and jitter are very low (such as on a local network), the
calculated retransmission timeout is very small. Set some sensible lower
boundary to the timeout by adding a new property. We use the packet
spacing as a lower boundary by default.
The jitterbuffer shouldn't force clock-rate on its sink pad, this will cause a negotiation issue since rtpssrcdemux doesn't have the clock-rate and doesn't add it to the caps. The documentation states that the clock-rate can either be specified through the caps or through the request-pt-map signal, so we must remove clock-rate from the pad templates and we must accept the GST_EVENT_CAPS if the caps don't have the clock-rate.

Implement 3 different cases for handling the SR:
1) we don't have enough timing information to handle the SR packet and
we need to wait a little for more RTP packets. In that case we keep
the SR packet around and retry when we get an RTP packet in the
chain function.
2) the SR packet has a too old timestamp and should be discarded. It is
labeled invalid and the last_sr is cleared.
3) the SR packet is ok and there is enough timing information, proceed
with processing the SR packet.
Before this patch, case 2) and 1) were handled in the same way,
resulting that SR packets with too old timestamps were checked over and
over again for each RTP packet.
They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.
