It is an object that is capable to run a few file checks. The
implemented tests are: file size, duration, if the file is seekable and
comparing the file stream types with a encoding profile
Shared objects listed in GST_QA_OVERRIDE are loaded on startup,
and the symbol gst_qa_create_overrides is run. It should create
any override needed. While it can do anything it wants, this
is discouraged.
GST_QA_OVERRIDE should be a comma separated list of shared objects,
any relative paths should be from the current working directory
at the time they are loaded (ie, if the process to be traced
changes cwd, use absolute paths).
No attempt whatsoever is made at not running what was not meant.
Includes a sample shared object for illustration purposes.
Various type of object should be able to do some reporting, so we have
to make sure all the code to do that is in one place. Creating an interface
makes it simple to share information and it avoid to have a baseclass for
something that is not actually important enough to create a baseclass.

A scenario correspond to a suite of action to execute on a pipeline,
for the time being, we only support seeking the pipeline, but in the
future we can imagine doing some queries, setting pipeline state, etc...
The scenario can be loaded thanks to the GST_QA_SCENARIO environment
variable, making it usable with any existant application, in case, the
application can be used interactively, the user should either, not load
any scenario or let the application run without interacting with it.
The base class adds a 'object' property to hold the monitored object,
it can only be set on construction. Also the constructor now
automatically calls the element set up
