Every container of miniobjects now needs to store itself as parent in
the child object, and remove itself again at a later time.
A miniobject is only writable if there is at most one parent, and that
parent is writable itself, and if the reference count of the miniobject
is 1.
GstBuffer (for memories), GstBufferList (for buffers) and GstSample (for
caps, buffer, bufferlist) was updated accordingly.
Without this it was possible to have e.g. a bufferlist with refcount 2
in two places, modifying the same buffer with refcount 1 at the same
time.

GstBitWriter provides a bit writer that can write any number of
bits into a memory buffer. It provides functions for writing any
number of bits into 8, 16, 32 and 64 bit variables.

This commit makes it possible to reuse a sample object and avoid
unnecessary memory allocations, for example in appsink.
In addition, writability is now required to set the buffer list.

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).

An object that can be waited on and asked for asynchronous values.
In much the same way as promise/futures in js/java/etc
A callback can be installed for when the promise changes state.

Add convenience API that iterates over all pads, sink pads or
source pads and makes sure that the foreach function is called
exactly once for each pad.
This is a KISS implementation. It doesn't use GstIterator and
doesn't try to do clever things like resync if pads are added
or removed while the function is executing. We can still do that
in future if we think it's needed, but in practice it will
likely make absolutely no difference whatsoever, since these
things will have to be handled properly elsewhere by the element
anyway if they're important.
After all, it's always possible that a pad is added or removed
just after the iterator finishes iterating, but before the
function returns.
This is also a replacement for gst_aggregator_iterate_sink_pads().

When a plugin declares a dependency using this flag, all the
relative paths are considered to be relative to the path of
the main executable.
We try to determine the path of the executable portably,
with implementations provided for Linux, Windows and Mac.
If retrieval of the path fails, we will not detect changes.
In order for the main executable path to be the same when
scanning a plugin in a child process, a new variable is
exposed in gst_private.h, _gst_executable_path

This stores debug logs in memory per thread and uses up to a
configurable amount of bytes per thread for the logs. Inactive threads
are timed out after a configurable amount of time.

gst_protection_filter_systems_by_available_decryptors() takes an array
of strings and returns a new array of strings filtered by the available
decryptors for them so the ones you get are the ones that you should be
able to decrypt.

This is a meta that generically allows to attach additional reference
timestamps to a buffer, that don't have to relate to the pipeline clock
in any way.
Examples of this could be an NTP timestamp when the media was captured,
a frame counter on the capture side or the (local) UNIX timestamp when
the media was captured.

This is useful for integration with other event loops that work by
polling file descriptors. G_IO_IN will always be set whenever a message
is available currently.

This is to help bindings access properties of type GST_TYPE_ARRAY.
This function will get/set the property and convert form/to
GValueArray.
New API:
gst_util_set_object_array
gst_util_get_object_array
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=753754
This adds a binding friendly interface to get and set arrays
and list into GstStructure.
New API:
- gst_structure_set_array
- gst_structure_set_list
- gst_structure_get_array
- gst_structure_get_list

As an usecase of URI fragment, it can indicate temporal or spatial
dimension of a media stream. To easily parse key-value pair,
newly added gst_uri_get_media_fragment_table () API will provide
the table of key-value pair likewise URI query.

Allows proxying the control interface from one property on one GstObject
to another property (of the same type) in another GstObject.
E.g. in a parent-child relationship, one may need to
gst_object_sync_values() on the child and have a binding (set elsewhere)
on the parent update the value.
Note: that this doesn't solve GObject property forwarding and must be
taken care of by the implementation manually or using GBinding.
