Add demuxer instance-wide decryption key cache. The current and
last key url are per-stream, so make a shared cache. Move the
decryption handling into the stream object, and use the shared
cache for the keys.
Prepare hlsdemux for more than one single stream. Currently hlsdemux
assumes there'll only ever be one stream and most of the stream-specific
state is actually in the hlsdemux structure. Add a stream subclass
instead and move some stream-specific members there instead.
When switching fragments we don't want to keep any data around from the last
one, and also forget about all data when doing flushing seeks or selecting new
bitrates.

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

Properly handle snap flags during reverse seeking. In this case
the before/after are also reversed, so handle those as such.
For example: with a sequence of 1s fragments:
|-- 0 --|-- 1 --|-- 2 --|-- 3 --|
If you seek to 1.5s it is inside fragment 1. With reverse and
snap-before: should play from the end of fragment 1
snap-after: should play from the end of fragment 0
Clear error as soon as we determine that the download failed,
otherwise there are code paths where we might return without
clearing it ever, which would leak the GError then. Also, we
can pass a NULL GError pointer to _fetch_uri(), so just do that
instead of passing one that we're going to just free again
right away anyway.
Setting the seek flags to GST_SEEK_FLAG_SNAP_* will change the seek
target time to a segment boundary.

If connection speed is set, playlist according
to connection speed is selected as current playlist.
Problem is that the current variant of main playlist still
points to previously set variant.
If previously set variant doesn't correspond to current
playlist, then it causes unnecessary change of playlist
to the same playlist after first fragment is downloaded,
because of not updated current variant.
To fix this, we need to make sure that current variant
of main playlist corresponds to the current playlist
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758946
Don't jump backward to 3 files from the end of the playlist
when switching variants - it just means we downloaded
fragments fast and caught up to the end of the playlist.
Disable that by treating a variant switch as a playlist
update, not a restart due to a seek or so.
If the stream is discont, we must provide a timestamp in any case. Elements
like tsdemux are not going to output anything if we give a NONE timestamp
after a discont.
Also marking a stream as discont if a playlist change was not successful would
lead to the above situation, but in that case we are not required at all to
mark the stream discont as we're still at the old playlist.
For live streams, we want to make sure there's a certain distance
between the sequence to play and the last (earliest) fragment.
The problem is that it assumes there are at least 3 fragments in
the playlist, which might not always be the case (like in the case
of a server restarting and gradually adding fragments).
In order to avoid ending up with negative sequence numbers (which
will just loop forever), limit the new target sequence number to
the highest of:
* either the first sequence number of the playlist (fallback)
* or 3 fragments from the last one (standard behaviour)
This reverts commit 4ca3a22b6b.
The connection-speed=0 is used as a special value in the property
of hlsdemux to mean 'automatic' selection, m3u8.c doesn't need
to know about that as it should be as simple as possible.
So this patch hides this automatic selection documented in hlsdemux
into m3u8 logic and I think the gets harder to understand the code.
It also makes the hlsdemux unit tests work again

We should only refresh the currently selected variant playlist (if any,
otherwise the main playlist), not the main playlist. And only try to
refresh the main playlist if updating the variant playlist fails.
Some servers (Wowza) use the request of the main playlist to create a
"session", which is then part of the URI of the variant playlist and
also the fragments. Refreshing the main playlist would generate a new
session, and the server rate limits that usually. And after a few retries
the server just kicks us out.
Also as a side effect we now use the same downloader for all playlists, so
that we only have 2 instead of 3 connections to the server. And also
previously we just ignored the downloaded data from the main playlist that
the base class gave to us.
When the segment is very short it might be the case that the
typefinding fails and when finishing the segment hlsdemux would
consider the remaining data (pending_buffer) as an encryption
leftover.
This patch fixes it and makes sure an error is properly posted
if typefind failed by refactoring buffer handling to a function
and using it from the data_received and finish_fragment functions.
We also have to update the current_file GList pointer in the M3U playlist
client, otherwise we are just continuing playback from the current position
instead of seeking.
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
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
