The goal of parsebin is to figure out which elements to link together in order
to provide elementary streams given any random input.
The problem is that deciding whether a given stream should still have more
elements plugged in or not was dependent on ... the presence of compatible
decoders (sic).
Instead of that, if we can't plug anymore elements on a given stream *and* it is
detected as being an elementary stream, expose it.

If sticky events are present on parsebin source pads, we propagate them to the
multiqueue source pads. Those will be propagated on the new urisourcebin source
pads like in the other code paths.
This ensures that STREAM_START event are present on new source pads. If CAPS
event are also present (not guaranteed), they will also be available.

These parameters are not actually `out` parameters but must
be allocated and zero-initialized by the calling function.
Marking them as `out caller-allocates` will cause memory
corruptions when calling these APIs from e.g., Python code.

If we have caps then we can only set exactly those caps, if we have no
caps yet then negotiating anything is not very meaningful because the
caps are defined by the application and not downstream.
Avoids, among other things, an unnecessary allocation query and spurious
useless caps being set before the first buffer.

This crept in several years ago sadly :(
The usage of accurate seeking should be reserved to use-cases where it is
essential that we seek to that position. This should not be the default.
There is a new option `--acurate-seeks/-a` to be able to force that.
Furthermore, if accurate seeks aren't required, a player should be using the
GST_SEEK_FLAG_KEY_UNIT flag to seek to the closest keyframe and provide the most
reactive experience.

Generating the source element is done when uridecodebin is doing the
READY to PAUSED state change, so it is reasonable to set the new source
element to that state.
This also allows detecting early failures with backing libraries or
hardware (checks done in NULL->READY).

Handling mouse navigation events in glvideomixer element, if no
pixel-aspect-ratio info in the caps, an assertion error is produced
inside gst_util_fraction_multiply because default denominator is zero.
Error fixed:
```
(gst-launch-1.0:102654): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: 00:47:51.598: gst_util_fraction_multiply: assertion 'b_d != 0' failed
```
Simple pipeline to reproduce the issue:
```
gst-launch-1.0 -v glvideomixer name=mix ! glimagesinkelement gltestsrc ! mix.sink_0
```

We create a new context in `gst_gl_context_create_thread()` and then
activate it on the current thread. Thereafter we assume that the
current thread continues to be the active thread for that context and
call `gst_gl_context_fill_info()` which asserts that the current
thread is the active thread.
However, if at the same time a different thread calls
`send_message_async()`, it will call into
`gst_gl_window_cocoa_send_message_async()` which will schedule the
message to be invoked using GCD. That anonymous function will also
call `gst_gl_context_activate()`, which creates a race, which can lead
to:
```
gst_gl_context_fill_info: assertion 'context->priv->active_thread == g_thread_self ()' failed
```
Fix it by using `gst_gl_context_thread_add()` to invoke `fill_info()`
on the context.

The goal of the "global" group-id is to fix new inputs that do not come from the
same "source" as others. In order to ensure all "current" streams have the same
group-id we distribute the first valid group-id to all streams.
This commit fixes two issues with that:
* When inputs are unlinked they weren't always properly resetted (it would only
work if parsebin is used, which is no longer the default in
uridecodebin3/playbin3).
* When computing the global group-id, take into account unset
group-id (i.e. GST_GROUP_ID_INVALID).
