Seems like the best fit to what it does, and is shorter than
set_frame_properties() which might also have been confusing
because of GstBaseParseFrame.

Allow for automatic merging of memory block in the _map function and automatic
freeing of the temporary memory.
Remove some unneeded functions.
Add possibility to force writable spanned memory.
Just like gst_caps_intersect, but adds a new parameter 'mode'
that allows selecting the intersection algorithm to use.
Currently we have GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_ZIG_ZAG (default) and
GST_CAPS_INTERSECT_MODE_FIRST.

GST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED should only affect visibility of declarations in headers,
not actually remove symbols. See GitDeveloperGuidelines and DeprecatingAPI
pages in wiki.

Add new functions to clarify how the caps are compared to the template caps of
the element factory. Improve the docs to point out the difference.
Deprecate: gst_element_factory_can_{src|sink}_caps
API: add gst_element_factory_can_{src|sink}_{any|all}_capps

Use a GstStructure to provide the pool with the right configuration. Also
provide some helper methods to configure such a structure.
don't pass the config in alloc_buffer, pool implementation will already have
parsed it during set_config.
Update defs
Make separate api for getting and adding metadata. This allows us to pass extra
parameters to the init functions when creating metadata, which is needed for
specific API implementations.
Add beginnings of memory metadata.
Add first implementation of arbitrary buffer metadata. We use a simple linked
linked of slice allocated metadata chunks. Future implementations could use
something more performant.
Add get, remove, iterate methods to handle the metadata.
Add function that (unlike the GLib equivalent) also accepts paths that
aren't absolute and will clean up relative markers such as ./ and ../
before forming a URI.
Fixes warnings with e.g. filesrc location=foo ! typefind caused by the
recent switch to g_filename_to_uri(), but also actually creates valid
URIs for the first time.
Windows code paths could need some more work, e.g. we don't clean up
the relative markers there for now (because path could have \ and /
as separators).
API: gst_filename_to_uri()
The new request_new_pad_full vmethod provides an additional caps field,
which allows elements to take better decision process.
Also, add a gst_element_request_pad() function to allow developers to be
able to specify which pad template they want a pad of.
Convert gstutils to use that new method instead of the old one when more
efficient.
This is useful for being able to request pads in a more flexible way,
especially when the element can provide pads whose caps depend on
runtime configuration and therefore can't provide pre-registered
pad templates.

Adds 2 variants for the gst_date_time_from_unix_epoch function,
one for UTC and another for local time.
API: gst_date_time_new_from_unix_epoch_utc
API: gst_date_time_new_from_unix_epoch_local_time
Fixes#653031https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=635031
Add a function to retrieve a list of buffers containing the first N bytes from
the adapter. This can be done without a memcpy and should make it possible to
transfer the list to a GstBufferList later.
Add _set_value() variants that take ownership of the value passed
instead of making a copy of the value. This is useful for setting
values to things that aren't refcounted (e.g. GValueArrays or
strings or string arrays, etc.).
API: gst_structure_take_value()

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=629831
Add a GstStructure to GstElementClass and GstElementFactory. Add setters/getter.
Handle it in the registry code. Print items in gst-inspect.
Fixes#396774.
API: gst_element_class_set_meta_data(), gst_element_factory_get_meta_data_detail()
Added a new query type to retrieve informations about the areas of the
media currently buffered. See bug 623121.
API: gst_query_add_buffering_range
API: gst_query_get_n_buffering_ranges
API: gst_query_parse_nth_buffering_range
A pad is 'negotiable' when its container element is in a state greater

This allows removing structures from caps without them being freed. Helpful when
plugins need to move around structures without having to do an expensive structure
copy.

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621527
Adds a new function to GstByteWriter that writes
a constant value to a memory area (aka memset).
Useful for adding padding to buffers.
Also updates .def file and docs.
API: gst_byte_writer_fill()
