If a segment has stop == -1, then gst_segment_to_running_time()
would refuse to calculate a running time for negative rates,
but gst_segment_do_seek() allows this scenario and uses a
valid duration for calculations.
Make the 2 functions consistent by using any configured duration
to calculate a running time too in that case.

Fixes for gst_segment_position_from_running_time_full() when
converting running_times that precede the segment start (or
stop in a negative rate segment)
The return value was incorrectly negated in those cases.
Add some more unit test checks for those cases, and especially
for segments with offsets.
Can't use a #ifndef GST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED guard around deprecated
functions any more, as they won't get exported then. Besides, we
get a nicer error message from the compiler telling us what function
to use instead this way.
Updated gst_segment_position_from_stream_time and gst_segment_to_stream_time to reflect correct calculations for the case when the applied rate is negative.
Pasting from design docs:
===============================
Stream time is calculated using the buffer times and the preceding SEGMENT
event as follows:
stream_time = (B.timestamp - S.start) * ABS (S.applied_rate) + S.time
For negative rates, B.timestamp will go backwards from S.stop to S.start,
making the stream time go backwards.
===============================
Therefore, the calculation for applied_rate < 0 should be:
stream_time = (S.stop - B.timestamp) * ABS (S.applied_rate) + S.time
and the reverse:
B.timestamp = S.stop - (stream_time - S.time) / ABS (S.applied_rate)

gst_segment_to_position might cause confusion, especially with the addition of
gst_segment_position_from_stream_time . Deprecated gst_segment_to_position
now, and replaced it with gst_segment_position_from_running_time.
Also added unit tests.
gst_segment_position_from_stream_time() will convert stream time into a
position in the segment so that gst_segment_to_stream_time() with that
position returns the same stream time. It will return -1 if the stream time
given is not inside the segment.
Do not do any checks for the start/stop in the new
gst_segment_to_running_time_full() method, we can let this be done by
the more capable gst_segment_clip() method. This allows us to remove the
enum of results and only return the sign of the calculated running-time.
We need to put the old clipping checks in the old
gst_segment_to_running_time() still because they work slightly
differently than the _clip methods.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740575
Add a clip argument to gst_segment_to_running_time_full() to disable
the checks against the segment boundaries. This makes it possible to
generate an extrapolated running-time for timestamps outside of the
segment.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740575
Add a helper method to get a running-time with a little more features
such as detecting if the value was before or after the segment and
negative running-time.

The position in the segment is relative to the start but the offset
isn't, so subtract the start from the position when setting the offset.
Add unit test for this as well.
Add GST_SEEK_FLAG_TRICKMODE_KEY_UNITS and
GST_SEEK_FLAG_TRICKMODE_NO_AUDIO, and rename GST_SEEK_FLAG_SKIP
to GST_SEEK_FLAG_TRICKMODE (with backwards compat define).
Do the same for the corresponding SEGMENT flags.

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.
Very often, when the end of a segment is detected by demuxer, the position
is slightly outside the segment boundaries. Currently, if that is the case
the base will be set to NONE instead of normal accumulation. This would
break non-flushing seeks in oggdemux and most likely other demuxers.
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=696899
Add an offset field that is used to track at what position the segment was
updated. This is used to set the running time to 0 when we do a flushing
seek that doesn't update the position.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=680306
Define a 0 and -1 step amount. They used to almost do the same thing but now, 0
cancels/stops the current step and -1 keeps on stepping until the end of the
segment.
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679378
Make GstSeekFlag to GstSegmentFlag conversion explicit, and
set only those seek flags in the segment flags which are
mapped. This makes sure we don't have extraneous flags
littering our segment flag field, which also fixes the
debug printing/serialisation of segment events in the
debug log.
Don't use the duration in the segment for calculating clipping values.
The duration is expressed in stream time and clipping is done on unrelated
timestamp values.
This used to be interesting for elements that used the segment structure to
implement seeking because then they would use stream-time for the segment
start/stop values and the duration could be used as a fallback when the stop
position was not set. Now that the complete segment event is passed between
elements we cannot do this anymore because some elements might store the
duration and start/stop values with different time bases in the segment.
