While the suspend modes NONE and PAUSED provided a low startup latency
for connecting clients they did not ensure that streams started on
fresh data.
With this property we can maintain the low startup latency of those
suspend modes while also ensuring that a stream starts on a key unit.
Furthermore, by modifying the value of a new property,
ensure-keyunit-on-start-timeout, it is possible to accept a keyunit of
a certain age but discard it if too much time has passed and instead
force a new keyunit.

Allow a project to use gstreamer-full as a static library
and link to create a binary without dependencies.
Introduce the option 'gst-full-target-type' to
select the build type, dynamic(default) or static.
In gstreamer-full/static build configuration gstreamer (gst.c)
needs the symbol gst_init_static_plugins which is defined
in gstreamer-full.
All the tests and examples are linking with gstreamer but the
symbol gst_init_static_plugins is only defined in the gstreamer-full
library. gstreamer-full can not be built first as it needs to know what plugins
will be built.
One option would be to build all the examples and tests after
gstreamer-full as the tools.
Disable tools build in subprojects too as it will be built at the end of
build process.

Previously it was possible that a shared media was just in the process
of being unprepared because the last client disappeared, while another
client retrieved it from the cache and then tried to use it. Unless the
media was reusable this would've then failed unnecessarily.
To avoid this it is necessary to lock the media directly in
gst_rtsp_media_factory_construct() and return a locked media. After
locking the cached media it is necessary to check if the media was ever
unprepared or is actually reusable and based on that either reuse it or
create a new media.
This minimally changes the gst_rtsp_media_factory_construct() API to
always return a locked media, and adds a new
gst_rtsp_media_can_be_shared() function to check if a media can actually
be shared in practice.

As the path to the gir file is passed to hotdoc.generate_doc() and
not the build target itself, meson doesn't know about the dependency.
In turn, as the CI doesn't build everything before building the
documentation target, some gir files might not exist, for instance
in the case of gst-rtsp-server, causing the output documentation to
be empty.
The error occurred silently because hotdoc accepts wildcards for
*-sources arguments, thus it won't warn about a missing gir file as
it is legitimate for glob matching to resolve to nothing.

The idea is to give the application the possibility to adjust the error
code when responding to a request. For that purpose the pipeline's bus
messages are emitted to subscribers through a signal handle-message.
The subscribers can then check those messages for errors and adjust
the response error code by overriding the virtual method
adjust_error_code().

Starting with Meson 0.62, meson automatically populates the variables
list in the pkgconfig file if you reference builtin directories in the
pkgconfig file (whether via a custom pkgconfig variable or elsewhere).
We need this, because ${prefix}/libexec is a hard-coded value which is
incorrect on, for example, Debian.
Bump requirement to 0.62, and remove version compares that retained
support for older Meson versions.

GLib made the unfortunate decision to prevent libgobject from ever being
unloaded, which means that now any library which registers a static type
can't ever be unloaded either (and any library that depends on those,
ad nauseam).
