Use GQueue instead of a GSList so we don't have to traverse
the whole list to append something every time. And it also
keeps track of the number of items in it for us.
Add a function to add filenames to the list of old files and
use it in more places, so that memory doesn't build up in
other modes either if no max_files limit is specified.

This new mode ensures that files will never exceed a certain duration
based on incoming buffer PTS (and duration if present)
Note:
* You need timestamped buffers (duh). If some of the incoming buffers don't
have PTS, then it will just accept them in the current file
This property can be used in combination with next-file=max-size
(and perhaps a future next-file=max-duration) to make sure that
each file part starts cleanly with a key frame and the appropriate headers.
In order for this property to work correctly, upstream elements should make
sure than any headers that need to be written in a standalone file are:
1) in the streamheader caps field
2) and/or in the stream as one or more buffers marked with GST_BUFFER_FLAG_HEADER
that are just before the keyframe buffer
This is useful for MPEG-TS/MPEG-PS file segmenting in
combination with mpegtsmux or mpegpsmux.
Original patch by: Tim-Philipp Müller <tim@centricular.com>
Add a property to allow control over what event causes a file
to finish being written and a new file start. The default is
the same as before -- each buffer causes a new file to be
written. Added is a case where buffers are written to the
same file until a discontinuity in the stream.
