We need GStreamer elements to do the bandwidth estimation as this way
they can also control the pacing of the transmission flow as specified
in the [GCC] algorithm for example.
Bandwidth estimator element are placed right before the "RTPSession" as
an "rtp-aux-sender" element. This way they can use the "Transport-wide
Congestion Control" RTCP feedback messages through the "RTPTwcc" custom
events that are sent by the rtpsession.
Applications are responsible to react to the bandwidth estimator element
and set the encoder target bitrate etc... which means that we can not
pass an estimator as an element factory, so a signal as been chosen
instead.

Similar to and inspired by glimagesink and gtkglsink.
Using the Wayland buffer transform API allows to offload
rotate operations to the Wayland compositor. This can have
several advantages:
- The Wayland compositor may be able to use hardware plane
capabilities to do the rotation.
- In case of pre-rotated content on rotated outputs the
rotations may equal out, potentially allowing the
compositor to use hardware planes even if they don't
support rotate operations.

This new signal allows data-channel consumers to configure signal handlers on a
newly created data-channel, before any data or state change has been notified.
The webrtcin unit-tests were refactored to make use of this new signal.

In preparation for the new element `GstGtkWaylandSink`, move reusable
parts out of `GstWaylandSink` into the already exisiting but very
barebone library.
Notable changes include:
- the `GstWaylandVideo` interface was dropped
- support for `wl-shell` was dropped
- lots of renaming in order to match established naming patterns
- lots of code modernisations, reducing boilerplate
- members were made private wherever possible

Adding a uri interface enables plugging in RFB/VNC sources to anything
that makes use of uridecodebin:
gst-play-1.0 rfb://:password@10.40.216.180:5903?shared=1
Use userinfo to pass user (ignored) and password, other key/value pairs
can be encoded in the query part of the URI (see shared)

Now it uses the JPEG parser in libgstcodecparsers, while the whole
code is simplified by relying more in baseparser class for tag
handling.
The element now signals chroma-format and default framerate is 0/1,
which is for still-images.

If a file includes a new version of a plugin that exits in the
registry, the output of gst-inspect is incorrect. The output has the
correct version but incorrect filename, and element description.
This seems to have also fixed some documentation issues.

Make it posible to configure the element to obtain the timestamps from
reference timestamp meta data instead of using the ntp-offset property,
or estimating its own offset. Currently the only time format supported
is "timestamp/x-unix", i.e. UTC time expressed in the unix time epoch.
In addition the custom event GstNtpOffset has been renamed to
GstOnvifTimestamp, to reflect that it is not necessarily used to convey
the ntp-offset. As a consequence we had to modify a couple of files in
the rtsp-server as well.
