On Windows it's not possible to bind to a multicast address
but the OS will make sure to filter out all packets that
arrive not for the multicast address the socket joined.
On Linux and others it is necessary to bind to a multicast
address to let the OS filter out all packets that are received
on the same port but for different addresses than the multicast
address
And deprecate the multicast-group property and replace it with the
address property.

RTP buffer allocation should not be done with padding for the specific MPEG2
header as the padding is done at the end of the buffer and the last byte is
the size of the padding.

This should make decoders able to precisely push buffers until the stop
time in case they need the next keyframe to do it.
Also, according to gst_segment_clip, it should only push a buffer that
the starting ts is strictly smaller than the segment stop, so we change
the min < comparison for <=
Don't update the next RTCP check time in all cases but only when we
reconsidered. This avoids delaying sending a full RTCP packet when we
are doing early feedback.
We can't use the clock to time our config-interval because we are not
live (or there might not be a clock or the clock might not be running).
Instead just simply take the timestamp diff.
This is to make sure tags are cleared on the client if the
stream-start was previously lost, otherwise, the client may end
up with a merged taglist of multiple songs
This is useful in case the packet containing the inlined caps was lost
or if new client joins an already running RTP stream and they missed
the previous tag events.
This also makes the payloader keep a list of merged tags so the retransmitted
tag event contains all previously received. A STREAM_START event will
flush the list of tags.
This is necessary to fix event/caps sending. If we send a STREAM_START
packet, it will cause an error because the stream didn't receive its
caps and new-segment events, so we must wait for the first buffer before
sending the stream-start event buffer. However, the caps will be sent
at the same time and so the 'inline caps' will be set for the event.
We need to be able to payload individual packets (data, caps or events)
and only send them when we call flush.
Restructure handling of incomming packet and the gap with the expected seqnum
and register all timers from the _chain function.
Convert a timer to a LOST packet timer when the max amount of retransmission
requests has been reached.
