Add private replacements for deprecated functions such as
g_mutex_new(), g_mutex_free(), g_cond_new() etc., mostly
to avoid the deprecation warnings. We'll change these
over to the new API once we depend on glib >= 2.32.
Fix crash or hang in generic/states unit test when doing stop()
right after start(). Create main loop in the start function already
and not just in the thread function, so that stop() always has a
valid main loop to quit on. Also, calling g_main_loop_quit() before
g_main_loop_run() won't work and result in the stop function waiting
for the thread to join forever. Therefore, wait for the thread to
be ready and get the main loop running in the start() function, to
be sure stop() always works.
PulseAudio 1.0 supports per-source-output volumes, and this exposes the
functionality via the GstStreamVolume interface.
When compiled against pre-1.0 PulseAudio, the interface is not
implemented, and the "volume" or "mute" properties are not available.
This bit of ugliness will go away when we can depend on PulseAudio 1.0
or greater.

Apparently libpng can technically do up to 2^31-1 rows and columns. However it
imposes an (arbitrary) default limit of 1 million (that could theoretically be
lifted by using some additional API).
Moved array allocation to the heap now.
A setcaps function needs to actually verify the caps carefully. In this case,
it was possible to e.g. link a video decoder with YUV+RGB template caps to
pngenc. That would cause a crash when the decoder pushes a YUV buffer. Same
thing when pushing a valid buffer that exceeds the resolution limits.
Also, missing framerate caps field would cause a glib critical warning due to
invalid GValue. This fails hard now.
This introduces a new bin which wraps around pulsesink and depending on
the formats supported by the sink, plugs in/out a decodebin2 as
required. This allows users to switch sinks on the stream and adapts
accordingly (for example, you could watch a movie in passthrough mode on
your receiver which supports AC3 decode, then plug out and switch to a
non-digital profile to continue uninterrupted on analog output).
The bin is required because doing the same with playbin2/playsink will
require API changes that cannot be made in 0.10. With 0.11/1.0, we
should be able to ask for upstream caps renegotiation to deal with all
this.
