It is often usefull to make sure that you get a full copy of a profile.
For example you want to let the user modify it in the user interface
but still keep an unchanged version for later use.

Instead of enforcing the user to know and understand caps to describe
the encoding format, let him use element factory names directly.
This also makes it possible to ensure that a specific encodore/muxer
is used instead of letting the ranking system do it.
It is now possible to describe an encoding format simply specifying:
matroskamux:x264enc:vobisenc
Factor out functions in the parsing, cleaning up the whole thing.
Update documentation.
We used to only care about the name of the files even if the name
is defined in the encoding target serialized file.
That commit also allows user to define several names for a single
target file (using a ';' between the names) which allows us to have
a target for youtube that is called 'youtube;yt' or a target for
'ogg;ogv;oga' file extension.
The caps put into the stream topology by decodebin are the caps at the
moment the pads are exposed on it. This is usually before decoders
received any buffers.
In discoverer we however wait for pre-roll, which ensures that each
decoder handled buffers already. At this point, there might be more
information known about the caps already that we could make use of.
One example here is extra information stored in the SEI of H264, like
the multiview-mode. This will be known if there is a SEI before the
first keyframe, but decodebin won't put this into the topology as it
only waits for the initial caps of h264parse (which come directly after
SPS/PPS).
With this change, the multiview-mode is in the caps reported by
discoverer in many cases.
The caps might not be fixated (which is required by GstVideoInfo) and we
would assert otherwise. However the caps often contain useful
information in the already-fixed parts that we can use here.

Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)
* Seriously fast configure and building on embedded
... and many more. For more details see:

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
parsed, framed, stream-format and alignment are only relevant for parsers and
should not matter here. We still want to be able to use an encoder that can
only output byte-stream if the input was avc.

Caps are cleaned up for missing plugins, and for creating encoding profiles
and caps descriptions.
Fields like streamheader, parsed, framed, stream-format and alignment are not
relevant here. The last ones all because a parser will take care of them.

If we e.g. have AVI with DV container with video/audio inside the DV
container, we can't handle this at this point with an encoding profile.
Instead of erroring out, flatten the container hierarchy.

When converting discoverer output to an encoding profile, it makes sense to
omit these. It's very very unlikely that our encoder is going to produce bit
by bit the same codec_data or streamheader.

The function gst_discoverer_info_copy doesn't copy the data members seekable
and result of the source GstDiscovererInfo.
In the case of copying a GstDiscovererInfo for later use, the seekbale will be
undefined, which in practice usually will be false, even though the seekable of
the original GstDiscovererInfo is true.

Base class type name should not reference libvisual since not all child
elements use this. This was an oversight when merging audiovisualizers into
a common base class.
