gst_video_info_set_format() will reset the complete video-info, but
we want to keep values like the PAR, colorimetry and chroma site.
Otherwise we risk setting different values on the srcpad caps than
what is actually inside the buffers.
Otherwise we might negotiate from the sinkpad streaming threads at
the same time as on the srcpad streaming thread, and then all kinds
of crazy bugs happen that don't make any sense at all.
This gives more flexibility to the subclasses and permits to remove the
GstVideoAggregatorClass->disable_frame_conversion ugly API.
WARNING: This breaks the API as it removes the disable_frame_conversion
field
API:
+ GstVideoAggregatorClass->find_best_format
+ GstVideoAggregatorPadClass->set_format
+ GstVideoAggregatorPadClass->prepare_frame
+ GstVideoAggregatorPadClass->clean_frame
- GstVideoAggregatorClass->disable_frame_conversion

With the current code, we will end up setting the preferred downstream
format as the srcpad format, and it might not be accepted by the next
sinkpad to be added. We should instead let the next sinkpad reconfigure
everything.
Otherwise, it is only possible for the sink pads and the src pads to
have the exact same caps features. We can convert from any feature
to another feature so support that.

The aggregator.segment is not to be initialized by the subclasses but
by the aggregator itself. Moreover, initializing it on start would make
us loose the information coming from the initial seek.
We should be able to always keep the VIDEO_AGGREGATOR_LOCK while
negotiating caps, this patch introduce that change.
That also implies that we do not need the SETCAPS_LOCK anymore because
now VIDEO_AGGREGATOR_LOCK guarantees that setcaps is not called from
several threads and the gst_aggregator_set_caps method is now
protected.

This is about converting the format, not about converting any widths and
heights. Subclasses are expected to handler different resolutions themselves,
like the videomixers already do properly.
Otherwise we could pass on a RGBA formatted buffer and downstream would
misinterpret that as some other video format.
Fixes pipelines of the form
gleffects ! tee ! xvimagesink
Allows callers to properly reference count the buffers used for
rendering.
Fixes a redraw race in glimagesink where the previous buffer
(the one used for redraw operations) is freed as soon as the next
buffer is uploaded.
1. glimagesink uploads in _prepare() to texture n
1.1 glupload holds buffer n
2. glimagesink _render()s texture n
3. glimagesink uploads texture n+1
3.1 glupload free previous buffer which deletes texture n
3.2 glupload holds buffer n+1
4. glwindow resize/expose
5. glimagesink redraws with texture n
The race is that the buffer n (the one used for redrawing) is freed as soon as
the buffer n+1 arrives. There could be any amount of time and number of
redraws between this event and when buffer n+1 is actually rendered and thus
replaces buffer n as the redraw source.
