The properties will only have their signal emitted when they change in
value, even when g_object_set, etc, methods are used.
The _set_start method already did this, but start was missing the
EXPLICIT_NOTIFY flag. There should be no need to check that the property
has changed in ->set_start or ->set_duration
Unless this property is set to TRUE, the in-point must be 0 and the
max-duration must be GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE.
Also added EXPLICIT_NOTIFY flags to the active and track-type
properties such that their notifies are emitted only if the property
changes, even when the g_object_set, etc, methods are used.
Also added a missing notify signal to the set_active method.
Only allow elements that were created by ges_clip_create_track_elements
(or copied from such an element) to be added to a clip. This prevents
users from adding arbitrary elements to a clip.
As an exception, a user can add GESBaseEffects to clips whose class
supports it, i.e. to a GESSourceClip and a GESBaseEffectClip.
This change also introduces a distinction between the core elements of a
clip (created by ges_clip_create_track_elements) and non-core elements
(currently, only GESBaseEffects, for some classes). In particular,
GESBaseEffectClip will now distinguish between its core elements and
effects added by the user. This means that the core elements will always
have the lowest priority, and will not be listed as top effects. This is
desirable because it brings the behaviour of GESBaseEffectClip in line
with other clip types.
Stop overwriting the ->list_children_properties virtual method in
subclasses because the timeline element class handles everything itself
anyway.
Note that containers already automatically add the children properties of
their child elements in ges_container_add.
By passing NULL to `g_signal_new` instead of a marshaller, GLib will
actually internally optimize the signal (if the marshaller is available
in GLib itself) by also setting the valist marshaller. This makes the
signal emission a bit more performant than the regular marshalling,
which still needs to box into `GValue` and call libffi in case of a
generic marshaller.
Note that for custom marshallers, one would use
`g_signal_set_va_marshaller()` with the valist marshaller instead.
Setters return values should return %FALSE **only** when the value
could not be set, not when unchanged or when the subclass handled
it itself!
This patches makes it so the return value is meaningul by allowing
subclasses return anything different than `TRUE` or `FALSE` (convention
is -1) to let the subclass now that it took care of everything and
no signal should be emited.
Now that the notion of layer has been moved down to #GESTimelineElement
(through the new #ges_timeline_element_get_layer_priority method), this
method make much more sense directly in the base class.
This is implemented on top of a Tree that represents the whole timeline.
SourceClips can not fully overlap anymore and the tests have been
updated to take that into account. Some new tests were added to verify
that behaviour in greater details
Each timeline element is in a layer (potentially spanning
over several), it is very often useful to retrieve an element
layer priority (from an app perspective more than the element
priority itself as that is a bit of an implementation detail
in the end).

When setting a new control binding on a track element, the old control
binding (if any) is going to be removed. Make sure the

We set TrackElement track type very early when creating effects
so it now uses that information to find TrackElement in clips

Those are implemented with the exact same API at the GESTimelineElement
level now, and user of those APIs with high level languages will get the
exact same API.
Before this patch, NLE and GES did not support NleOperations (respectively
GESEffects) that changed the speed/tempo/rate at which the source plays. For
example, the 'pitch' element can make audio play faster or slower. In GES 1.5.90
and before, an NleOperation containing the pitch element to change the rate (or
tempo) would cause a pipeline state change to PAUSED after that stack; that has
been fixed in 1.5.91 (see #755012 [0]). But even then, in 1.5.91 and later,
NleComposition would send segment events to its NleSources assuming that one
source second is equal to one pipeline second. The resulting early EOS event
(in the case of a source rate higher than 1.0) would cause it to switch stacks
too early, causing confusion in the timeline and spectacularly messed up
output.
This patch fixes that by searching for rate-changing elements in
GESTrackElements such as GESEffects. If such rate-changing elements are found,
their final effect on the playing rate is stored in the corresponding NleObject
as the 'media duration factor', named like this because the 'media duration',
or source duration, of an NleObject can be computed by multiplying the duration
with the media duration factor of that object and its parents (this is called
the 'recursive media duration factor'). For example, a 4-second NleSource with
an NleOperation with a media duration factor of 2.0 will have an 8-second media
duration, which means that for playing 4 seconds in the pipeline, the seek
event sent to it must span 8 seconds of media. (So, the 'duration' of an
NleObject or GES object always refers to its duration in the timeline, not the
media duration.)
To summarize:
* Rate-changing elements are registered in the GESEffectClass (pitch::tempo and
pitch::rate are registered by default);
* GESTimelineElement is responsible for detecting rate-changing elements and
computing the media_duration_factor;
* GESTrackElement is responsible for storing the media_duration_factor in
NleObject;
* NleComposition is responsible for the recursive_media_duration_factor;
* The latter property finally fixes media time computations in NleObject.
NLE and GES tests are included.

Read only properties will throw a GLib warning like this
when accessed with "set_child_property":
Warning: g_object_set_property: property 'text-x' of object class 'GstTextOverlay' is not writable
Avoiding all the pending_xx dance and making the code simpler.
This is now possible thanks to the various recent refactoring.
Thanks to that the user is able to set_child_property on objects
that are not in GESTrack yet, as expected.

This way we have informations about the content of the
children as soon as possible.
Most code paths where already ready to handle that as we use it for
copying clips.
Fix framepositionner to properly handle that (it would have broke

I got some trouble with
arc land
and I wanted to push the 3 commit coming after this revert as 3
different commits but they ended up being all squash into one single
commit, which is clearly not cool for later bisecting and blaming.
Reverting that commit and re pushing those 3 commits as they were
supposed to be.

This method can be used for subclass to override the default behaviour
for child lookup. This vmethod can be used for example in the case where
you want the name of a child property to be 'overridden'.
As an example in the GESTitleSource where we have a videotestsrc
which has a 'foreground-color' property that is used in the TitleSource
to set the background color of the title, this vmethod is now used to
tweak the name passed as parameter to rename "background" to
"foreground-backend" making our API understandable.
