This commits add common elements for Ancillary Data and Closed
Caption support in GStreamer:
* A VBI (Video Blanking Interval) parser that supports detection
and extraction of Ancillary data according to the SMPTE S291M
specification. Currently supports the v210 and UYVY video
formats.
* A new GstMeta for Closed Caption : GstVideoCaptionMeta. This
supports the two types of CC : CEA-608 and CEA-708, along with
the 4 different ways they can be transported (other systems
are super-set of those).

We need different export decorators for the different libs.
For now no actual change though, just rename before the release,
and add prelude headers to define the new decorator to GST_EXPORT.

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:

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
