Since we started depending on GLib 2.44, we can be sure this macro is
defined (it will be a no-op on compilers that don't support it). For
plugins we should just start using `G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE` which means we
no longer need the macro there, but for most types in base/gst-libs we
don't want to break ABI, which means it's better to just keep it like it
is (and use the `#ifdef` instead).
Function body must only be removed if compiling with
GST_REMOVE_DEPRECATED. Function declaration must not
be skipped if GST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED is defined, since
it contains our export decorator and we wouldn't export
the symbol as public API any more then since we compile
with GST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED.
We need different export decorators for the different libs.
For now no actual change though, just rename before the release,
and add prelude headers to define the new decorator to GST_EXPORT.

Currently the API is far from optimal and the user has to work around
our badly defined API to simply install missing plugins.
API:
new:
gst_discoverer_info_get_missing_elements_installer_details
deprecated:
gst_discoverer_info_get_misc
gst_discoverer_stream_info_get_misc

The /*< ... >*/ style is only used for public|protected|private,
signal comments use /* signals */. This prevents the some code
parsers/binding generators to be confused by the comment.
Use GstDiscoverer{Audio,Video}Info in getters like
gst_discoverer_{audio,video}_info_get_*(). This avoids the casts in the macros,
help language bindings and is more correct.
While the doc parser allows for certain variation, it is a good idea to not
use random characters here and there, but try to stick to the little markup
syntax there is.
