Timestamp offsets needs to be checked to detect unrealistic values
caused for example by NTP clocks not in sync. The new parameter
max-ts-offset lets the user decide an upper offset limit. There
are two different cases for checking the offset based on if
ntp-sync is used or not:
1) ntp-sync enabled
Only negative offsest are allowed since a positive offset would
mean that the sender and receiver clocks are not in sync.
Default vaule of max-ts-offset = 0 (disabled)
2) ntp-sync disabled
Both positive and negative offsets are allowed.
Default vaule of max-ts-offset = 3000000000
The reason for different default values is to be backwards
compatible.

Instant large changes to ts_offset may cause timestamps to move
backwards and also cause visible effects in media playback. The new
option max-ts-offset-adjustment lets the application control the rate to
apply changes to ts_offset.

If one requests the send_rtcp_src_%u pad before a recv_rtcp_sink_%u pad,
the session/pad would never be created and NULL was returned.
Switching the request order would work.

A new signal named on-bundled-ssrc is provided and can be
used by the application to redirect a stream to a different
GstRtpSession or to keep the RTX stream grouped within the
GstRtpSession of the same media type.

To be able to cap the number of allowed streams for one session.
This is useful for preventing DoS attacks, where a sender can change
SSRC for every buffer, effectively bringing rtpbin to a halt.

The new property allows to select the time source that should be used for the
NTP time in RTCP packets. By default it will continue to calculate the NTP
timestamp (1900 epoch) based on the realtime clock. Alternatively it can use
the UNIX timestamp (1970 epoch), the pipeline's running time or the pipeline's
clock time. The latter is especially useful for synchronizing multiple
receivers if all of them share the same clock.
If use-pipeline-clock is set to TRUE, it will override the ntp-time-source
setting and continue to use the running time plus 70 years. This is only kept
for backwards compatibility.
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.
Add an accumulator that stops the signal emission as soon as a caps has
been retrieved. Otherwise the default handler would continue emitting
the signal and possibly overwrite the result with NULL again.
AUX elements are elements that can be inserted into the rtpbin
pipeline right before or after 1 or more session elements.
The AUX elements are essential for implementing functionality such
as error correction (FEC) and retransmission (RTX).

Keep track of elements that are added to multiple sessions and make sure
we only add them to the rtpbin once and that we clean them when no
session refers to them anymore.
* gst/rtpmanager/gstrtpbin.[ch]: four new action signals have been
added (request-rtp-encoder, request-rtp-decoder, request-rtcp-encoder
and request-rtcp-decoder). The user will be able to provide encoders
or decoders dynamically. The encoders must follow the srtpenc API and
the decoders the srtpdec API. Having separate signals for RTP and RTCP
allows the user to use different encoders/decoders or provide the same
one (e.g. that would be the case for srtpenc).
Also, rtpbin now allows application/x-srtp in its pads.
