Optimize LE<->BE conversion by adding a dedicated fast path instead of
using the generic converter. Implement transform_ip function in order to do the
endian swap in place.
This saves buffer allocation for the intermediate format, can be done in place
and also performs the conversion in one step instead of unpack-convert-pack.
For all bit widths the naive algorithm is implemented, which provides the best
performance when compiled with -O3. ORC was considered but eventually removed
as it requires a dedicated function for in-place conversion (due to the
"restrict" parameters).
A more complex algorithm for the 24-bit conversion with unrolled loop and
32-bit processing is implemented in the #if 0 section. It performs better if
compiled with -O2. With -O3 however the naive algorithm performs better.

It is not needed to store a pointer to every single chain element to free it.
Instead walk the channel list backwards and free the chain elements one by one.
Rename GstAudioConverter->chain_pack to chain_end.

Refuse to answer BYTES queries ourselves. The only
time they make sense is on raw elementary streams,
in which case upstream would already have answered.
They especially don't make sense for encoders to answer
based on upstream values - although perhaps later
we could make it do TIME->BYTES conversion on the source
pad based on bitrate.

gst_audio_buffer_reorder_channels() was always mapping the buffer read-write
regardless whether any reordering was needed. If the from and to channel order
is identical return immediately without remapping the buffer.
Add a small helper function gst_audio_channel_positions_equal() which is used
in both gst_audio_reorder_channels() and gst_audio_buffer_reorder_channels().

All the GstAudioClock method declarations required object of GstClock type
as a first argument, but in fact, required GstAudioClock object (runtime
check in function body). Instead of checking type in run-time, we can
change functions declaration, to accept only GstAudioClock methods. Then,
runtime check is not necessary anymore, since always GstAudioClock object
is passed to a function.

This makes sure that we only build files that need explicit SIMD support
with the relevant CFLAGS. This allows the rest of the code to be built
without, and specific SSE* code is only called after runtime checks for
CPU features.

Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)
* Seriously fast configure and building on embedded
... and many more. For more details see:
http://blog.nirbheek.in/2016/05/gstreamer-and-meson-new-hope.htmlhttp://blog.nirbheek.in/2016/07/building-and-developing-gstreamer-using.html
Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
