Otherwise we could pass on a RGBA formatted buffer and downstream would
misinterpret that as some other video format.
Fixes pipelines of the form
gleffects ! tee ! xvimagesink
Allows callers to properly reference count the buffers used for
rendering.
Fixes a redraw race in glimagesink where the previous buffer
(the one used for redraw operations) is freed as soon as the next
buffer is uploaded.
1. glimagesink uploads in _prepare() to texture n
1.1 glupload holds buffer n
2. glimagesink _render()s texture n
3. glimagesink uploads texture n+1
3.1 glupload free previous buffer which deletes texture n
3.2 glupload holds buffer n+1
4. glwindow resize/expose
5. glimagesink redraws with texture n
The race is that the buffer n (the one used for redrawing) is freed as soon as
the buffer n+1 arrives. There could be any amount of time and number of
redraws between this event and when buffer n+1 is actually rendered and thus
replaces buffer n as the redraw source.

Dynamic pipelines that get and release the sink pads will finalize
the pad without going through gst_gl_mixer_stop() which is where the
upload object is usually freed. Don't leak objects in such case.
Allows automatic negotiation of the size in the following case:
gst-launch-1.0 glvideomixer name=m sink_0::xpos=0 sink_1::xpos=320 ! glimagesink \
videotestsrc ! m. \
videotestsrc pattern=1 ! m.
