Bitrate estimation is now handled through a queue2 element added after
the source element used to download fragments.

The gst_adaptive_demux_stream_free function is trying to stop the stream's
download task. For this, it signals the task. But it fails to also set the
stream->download_finished = TRUE, so the task will go back to sleep and
only exit when the download is finished.

dashdemux seeks each live stream to its current fragment in the beginning, but
the base class does not know about this. Update the demuxer segment with this
seek so we generate the correct SEGMENT event and can actually play the
stream.
This needs some refactoring at some point.

Each period will start again with pts 0 + period presentation offset, which is
also going to be the presentation time inside the container stream if any.
However all periods together should form a continuous timeline, with regard to
stream time and running time.
For making this possible we keep track of the "user requested segment", i.e.
the seek events, inside the demuxer without adjusting anything and taking this
demuxer segment only as orientation for modified segments per stream.
This per stream segments will have their segment.start at pts that would be
produced for this stream in this period, and the segment.base/time adjusted so
that this pts maps to the running and stream time this period should have in
the context of all other periods.

There are several cases where a HLS server could temporarily have wrong
fragments, or reconfigure the playlist. In those cases, when we get
fragment download failures, we *really* want to wait a bit (for the next
playlist update) before retrying to get fragments.
Previously this method was first checking to see if there was next fragments
(according to the previous manifest update) before waiting for the next update.
The problem was that if that if there is a temporary failure on the server,
that's uncorrelated to whether the manifest contains next fragments or not.
If a ContentProtection element is present in an AdaptationSet element,
send Protection events on the source pad, so that qtdemux can use this
information to correctly generate its source caps for DASH CENC
encrypted streams.
This allows qtdemux to support CENC encrypted DASH streams where the
content protection specific information is carried in the MPD file
rather than in pssh boxes in the initialisation segments.
This commit adds a new function to the adaptivedemux base class to allow
a GstEvent to be queued for a stream. The queue of events are sent the
next time a buffer is pushed for that stream.

Sometimes the last fragment does not exist because of rounding errors with the
durations. Just finish the stream gracefully instead of erroring out instead.
Segment start/time/position/base should only be modified if this is the first
time we send a segment, otherwise we will override values from the seek
segment if new streams have to be exposed as part of the seek.
Segment base should be calculated from the segment start based on the stream's
own segment, not the demuxer's segment. Both might differ slightly because of
the presentationTimeOffset.
Always add the presentationTimeOffset (relative to the period start, not
timestamp 0) to the segment start after resetting the stream's segment based
on the demuxer's segment (i.e. after seeks or stream restart). Also make sure
to keep the stream's segment up to date and not just send a new segment event
without storing the segment in the stream.

And include the presentation offset in the last known position for each
stream, and just because we can also keep track of the latest known position
inside the demuxer segment.
It's going to return EOS if the period ended or otherwise there is just no
next fragment left. If we don't store the last return value, it will always
stay OK and gst_adaptive_demux_combine_flows() will always return OK instead
of EOS once all streams are done.
This partially switches period changes in DASH by at least trying to switch
instead of just stopping. What is still left is that after a period change
with DASH the times all start at 0 again instead of continuing.
It's true that we shouldn't consider errors fatal immediately, but if we
always ignore them we will loop infinitely on live streams with segments
that can't be downloaded at all.
Even for "live" streams we are not live in the GStreamer meaning of the word.
We don't produce buffers that are timestamped based on their "capture time"
and our clock, but just based on whatever timestamps the stream might contain.
Also even if we wanted to claim to be live, that wouldn't work well as we
would have to return GST_STATE_CHANGE_NO_PREROLL when going from READY to
PAUSED, which we can't. We first need data to know if we are "live" or not.
It will deadlocks as we will then join() the update task from itself. Instead
just post an actual error message on the bus and only stop the update task.
The application is then responsible for shutting down the element, and thus
all the other tasks and everything, based on the error message it gets.
It might return OK from subclasses and it could cause a bitrate
renegotiation. For DASH and MSS that is ok as they won't expose
new pads as part of this but it can cause issues for HLS as
it will expose new pads, leading to pads that will only have EOS
that cause decodebin to fail

Asks the subclass for a potential time offset to apply to each
separate stream, in dash streams can have "presentation time offsets",
which can be different for each stream.

Move the property from subclasses to adaptivedemux, it allows
selecing the percentage of the measured bitrate to be used when
selecting stream bitrates
Allows to set a bitrate directly instead of measuring it internally
based on the received chunks. The connection-speed was removed from
mssdemux and hlsdemux as it is now in the base class
