When a new discoverer was created for a thread so discovery could
recurse we could end up removing the wrong discoverer info from the
cache leading to freeing it while it was still discovering URIS, which
lead to the following assertion:

The manager keeps track of one discoverer per thread and in large applications
with hundreds of threads this can significantly increase memory pressure. So we
need to periodically clean-up the unused discoverers.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/5608>
When using deeply nested timelines with the `ges:` protocol the
formatters ends up trying to do discovery from the same thread current
discovery happens, leading to infinite freeze as GstDiscoverer can't run
several discoveries at the same time.
By ensuring that when calling `gst_discoverer_discover_uri_async` no
`GstDiscoverer` is set as "thread discoverer" we know that another
discoverer will be created if discovery recurses, effectively removing
the freeze.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/5608>
Allowing better control over the way discovery happens and allowing
us to expose a proper API.
This also adds the potential of implementing more multi-threaded
discovery in a clean way in the future.
This allows us to cleanly expose the new
GstDiscoverer::load-serialize-info signal.
