Add a gst_base_src_submit_buffer_list() function that allows subclasses
to produce a bufferlist containing multiple buffers in the ::create()
function. The buffers in the buffer list will then also be pushed out
in one go as a GstBufferList. This can reduce push overhead
significantly for sources with packetised inputs (such as udpsrc)
in high-throughput scenarios.
The _submit_buffer_list() approach was chosen because it is fairly
straight-forward, backwards-compatible, bindings-friendly (as opposed
to e.g. making the create function return a mini object instead),
and it allows the subclass maximum control: the subclass can decide
dynamically at runtime whether to return a list or a single buffer
(which would be messier if we added a create_list virtual method).

Holding this lock on live source prevents the source from changing
the caps in ::create() without risking a deadlock. This has consequences
as the LIVE_LOCK was replacing the STREAM_LOCK in many situation. As a
side effect:
- We no longer need to unlock when doing play/pause as the LIVE_LOCK
isn't held. We then let the create() call finish, but will block if
the state have changed meanwhile. This has the benefit that
wait_preroll() calls in subclass is no longer needed.
- We no longer need to change the state to unlock, simplifying the
set_flushing() interface
- We need different handling for EOS depending if we are in push or pull
mode.
This patch also document the locking of each private class member and
the locking order.

If segment.stop was given, and the subclass provides a size that might be
smaller than segment.stop and also smaller than the actual size, we would
already stop there.
Instead try reading up to segment.stop, the goal is to ignore the (possibly
inaccurate) size the subclass gives and finish until segment.stop or when the
subclass tells us to stop.
The subclass should do that already, but just in case do it ourselves too as a
fallback. Without this, e.g. playbin will just wait forever if this fails
because it is triggered as part of an ASYNC state change.
Currently, the query values are being set even if the query itself was
determined to have failed. Fix this to ensure the values are only set in
case of a query success.

Otherwise we're going to set a rather arbitrary DTS of segment.start (usually
0) for live sources, which confuses synchronization if the source started
capturing at a later time. And it's especially wrong for raw media, for which
we should not set any DTS at all.

It could be triggered by:
gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc num-buffers=20 ! videcrop bottom=214748364 ! videoconvert ! autovideosink

The flush-stop event should not restart the task for live sources unless
the element is playing. This was breaking seeks in pause with the rtpsrc.

Buffer pool set_config() may return FALSE if requested configuration needed
small changes. Reget the config and try setting it again (validating the
changes first). This ensure we have a configured pool if possible.

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.
Don't set the size to -1 in automatic_eos mode (which also updates the
duration to -1). We only want automatic_eos mode influence the maxsize
calculations without any side effects.

This defaults to TRUE and if it is set to FALSE it is the subclasses
responsibility to return GST_FLOW_EOS from the create() vmethod once
the stream is done.
Store the eos event seqnum and use it when creating the
new eos event to be pushed downstream. To know if the eos
was caused by the eos events received on send_event, a
'forced_eos' flag is used to use the correct seqnum on
the event pushed downstream.
Useful if the application wants to check if the EOS message
was generated from its own pushed EOS or from another source
(stream really finished).
Also adds a test for this
