Handling the ghostpad and its internal pad was causing more issues
than helping because of their coupled activation/deactivation
actions.
As we have to install custom chain,event and query functions it is
better to use a floating sink pad internally in the demuxer and just
use those pad functions to push through a standard pad in the demuxer

This no longer does anything, and it was marked as CONSTRUCT_ONLY
which means someone would really have to go out of their way to
be able to set this, which would only be done in very custom
scenarios, if ever, and those will likely target a specific
version of GStreamer then, so probably not much point keeping
it deprecated for a while before removing it.
Bitrate estimation is now handled through a queue2 element added after
the source element used to download fragments.

Each period will start again with pts 0 + period presentation offset, which is
also going to be the presentation time inside the container stream if any.
However all periods together should form a continuous timeline, with regard to
stream time and running time.
For making this possible we keep track of the "user requested segment", i.e.
the seek events, inside the demuxer without adjusting anything and taking this
demuxer segment only as orientation for modified segments per stream.
This per stream segments will have their segment.start at pts that would be
produced for this stream in this period, and the segment.base/time adjusted so
that this pts maps to the running and stream time this period should have in
the context of all other periods.

If a ContentProtection element is present in an AdaptationSet element,
send Protection events on the source pad, so that qtdemux can use this
information to correctly generate its source caps for DASH CENC
encrypted streams.
This allows qtdemux to support CENC encrypted DASH streams where the
content protection specific information is carried in the MPD file
rather than in pssh boxes in the initialisation segments.
This commit adds a new function to the adaptivedemux base class to allow
a GstEvent to be queued for a stream. The queue of events are sent the
next time a buffer is pushed for that stream.

Asks the subclass for a potential time offset to apply to each
separate stream, in dash streams can have "presentation time offsets",
which can be different for each stream.

Move the property from subclasses to adaptivedemux, it allows
selecing the percentage of the measured bitrate to be used when
selecting stream bitrates
Allows to set a bitrate directly instead of measuring it internally
based on the received chunks. The connection-speed was removed from
mssdemux and hlsdemux as it is now in the base class
And use the average to go up in resolution, and the last fragment
bitrate to go down.
This allows the demuxer to react rapidly to bitrate loss, and
be conservative for bitrate improvements.
+ Add a construct only property to define the number of fragments
to consider when calculating the average moving bitrate.

Add more power to the chunk_received function (renamed to data_received)
and also to the fragment_finish function.
The data_received function must parse/decrypt the data if necessary and
also push it using the new push_buffer function that is exposed now. The
default implementation gets data from the stream adapter (all available)
and pushes it.
The fragment_finish function must also advance the fragment. The default
implementation only advances the fragment.
This allows the subsegment handling in dashdemux to continuously download
the same file from the server instead of stopping at every subsegment
boundary and starting a new request
The subsegment boundary return tells the adaptivedemux that it can
try to switch to another representation as the stream is at a suitable
position for starting from another bitrate.
This allows the subclasses to know if the chunks that are downloaded are
part of the header or of the index and will parse the parts that are
of their interest.
