dc837f8f60 plugin: warn if plugin name starts with a "
This can easily happen as side-effect of the plugin name
in GST_PLUGIN_DEFINE no longer being a string in 0.11, but
a name to G_STRINGIFY.

4889fd6b6f plugin: remove gst_plugin_name_filter
It's only used internally, most other users will likely
want to use gst_registry_find_plugin() directly instead
(and if not, they can easily walk the list and doing the
strcmp themselves).

3954fdcb0d plugin: remove gst_plugin_get_module()
This is an implementation detail really, and it's not
clear what anyone would do with this. It's unused as
far as I'm aware, so just remove it for now.

b0d89da6b6 gst: Change versioning
Remove GST_MAJORMINOR and replace it by GST_API_VERSION
Also set GST_VERSION_{MAJOR,MINOR,MICRO,NANO} explicitely
now.

All versions are at 1.0.0 now for the release soon but
API/ABI can still change until the 1.0.0 release.

Next release versions until 1.0.0 will be 0.10.9X and
these will be release candidates. GST_VERSION_* will
nonetheless stay at 1.0.0.0.

ed80a5cd4b registry: rename gst_registry_get_default() to gst_registry_get()
It's not really a default if there is only one that can't be changed.

Should we return a ref like e.g. g_volume_monitor_get() does?

8c72758ec2 plugin: add release datetime field to GstPluginDesc and set it if GST_PACKAGE_RELEASE_DATETIME is defined
This is a string describing a date and/or date/time in a simple subset of
the ISO-8601 format, namely either "YYYY-MM-DD" or "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MMZ" (with
'T' the date/time separator and the 'Z' indicating UTC).

The main purpose of this field is to keep track of plugin and element versions
on an absolute timeline, so it's possible to determine which one is newer when
comparing two date time numbers. This will allow us to express 'replaces'-type
relationships betweeen plugins and element factories in future, even across
different modules and plugin merges or splits (source module version numbers
aren't particularly useful here, since they can only meaningfully be compared
within the same module). It also allows applications and libraries to reliably
check that a plugin is recent enough without making assumptions about modules
or module versions.

We use a string here to keep things simple and clear, esp. on the build system
side of things.

9c6b87510e pluginloading: add support for whitelisting based on plugin or source module name and path
This feature is primarily intended for use in plugin modules' unit tests.

Consider the following situation: gst-plugins-good is built against an
installed GStreamer core. An older version of gst-plugins-good is also
installed in that prefix, along with random other plugin modules. Now,
when doing 'make check' in the just-built gst-plugins-good tree, we
want to only load plugins from GStreamer core, gst-plugins-base, and
gst-plugins-good, but not random other modules (we don't want any unit
tests to fail just because some module in gst-plugins-bad has a broken
plugin_init, for example). Also, we want to only load gst-plugins-good
modules from the locally-built source tree, but not any of the older
gst-plugins-good modules installed. This is usually assured by loading
the ones in the source tree first (by adding that path first to the
right environment variables), but it gets tricky when plugins are
moved, removed, merged, or renamed, or the plugin filename changes.

Note that 'make check' should really work right without doing
'make install' or uninstalling the old gst-plugins-good package (or
any other gst-plugins-foo package) first.

Enter GST_PLUGIN_LOADING_WHITELIST. This environment variable may
contain source-package@path-prefix pairs separated by the platform
search path separator (G_SEARCHPATH_SEPARATOR_S). The source package
and path prefix are separated by the '@' character. The path prefix is
entirely optional, as is the '@' separator if no path is given.

It is also possible to filter based on plugin names instead of the name
of the source-package by specifying one or more plugin names separated
by commas before the optional path prefix.

In short, the following match patterns are possible:

   plugin1,plugin2@pathprefix or
   plugin1,plugin2@* or just
   plugin1,plugin2 or
   source-package@pathprefix or
   source-package@* or just
   source-package

So for our gst-plugins-good unit test example above, we  would set the
environment variable on *nix to something like this (will likely be a
relative path in practice):
gstreamer:gst-plugins-base:gst-plugins-good@/path/to/src/gst-plugins-good

Fixes #619815 and #619717.

8fe63000de plugins: Do not ever unload a plugin after calling into it
This is what can happen in a plugin_init function:
- An element based on GstBaseSink is registered
- Other elements fail to register
- The plugin_init function returns FALSE

Now if this the plugin is the first plugin to link against
libgstbase.so, it will have caused libgstbase.so to be loaded and static
strings from that library will have been added to gobject while
registering GstBaseSink.

So unloading the plugin will cause those strings to go stale and the
next plugin using GstBaseSink will crash. So we must not unload modules
after calling into them ever.

a9d1a493a7 Fixes for -Wwrite-strings
This changes some APIs in compatible ways:
- Some functions now take "const char *" arguments, not "char *"
- Some structs now have "conts char *" members, not "char *"
The changes may cause warnings when compiling with the right warning
flags. You've been warned.

Also adds -Wwrite-strings as a warning flag in configure.ac.

27284628e4 optimisation : Use g_object_newv where possible.
This avoids:
* triple-checking for the GType when type-checking is enabled (see #597260)
* Avoids going through an expensive no-argument checking which landed in
  glib-2.22
* Avoids going through 2 extrac functions (g_object_new -> g_object_new_valist)

daecaf0e8a Remove GST_DEBUG_FUNCPTR where they're pointless
There's not much point in using GST_DEBUG_FUNCPTR with GObject
virtual functions such as get_property, set_propery, finalize and
dispose, since they'll never be used by anyone anyway. Saves a
few bytes and possibly a tenth of a polar bear.

55577a48ea registry: don't recreate features on first use. Fixes #584389
The first time one calls gst_element_factory_make(), gst recreates the plugin
feature and the element factory. As a side effect we ref the class to fill
in detail we already have filled from the registry cache. This patch changes
the behaviour to just update the existing entries. The factory is now attached
to the type and set in gst_element_base_class_init().
