By adding the video-source-filter during construction time, rather then
patching it in later (*), we can greatly reduce the amount of caps involved
in negotation, speeding up pipeline creation.
I wrote this while working on speeding up the startup of cheese. My cheese
has been modified to add a capsfilter, filtering for only the configured
resolution, with that cheese patch + this patch, the pipeline creation time
goes from aprox 1.1 seconds to aprox 350ms. This is with a Logitech 9000
pro camera, which supports lots of different resolutions at many different
framerates per resolution, causing a caps "explosion" if not filtered.
*) Note the code for this is left in, as it is still necessary if the
video-source-filter is changed between a stop + re-start.

check_and_replace_src() was setting self->app_vid_src to NULL, which
means that an app setting the video-source property, and then starting,
stopping and re-starting the pipeline (ie to make changes to the
video-source-filter property) would after the restart no longer have
a video-source.
This patch fixes this by making gst_camerabin_setup_default_element return a
ref to the passed in user_element, rather then returning the user_element as
is, so that that ref can be passed on to the bin, and the app_vid_src ref
stays valid.

It was not properly divided by GST_SECONDS. Also fix issue with
max-buffering-time being multiplied by GST_SECONDS every time the
property is retrieved.

Current fallback to lost_sync seems to impede a delay to restore
sync. Let the parser parse and skip the private stream.
Here it contains the digital camera brand (in 2010 bytes)
and is repeated twice.

Ignore the display_extension values if they are greater than the width/height
values provided by seqhdr and calculate the PAR based on the seqhdr values.T
his is what DVD players are doing.

descriptors are stored as a GValueArray of GString. The downside is
that there is no way to "pass" ownership of a GValue to a GValueArray
which previously resulted in expensive copy/free of the (already expensive)
GString.
Here we estimate first the size of the GValueArray, then create it,
then directly use the GValue of that array.
Speeds up total SI parsing by ~30%
Split the introspection and registration part. This way we only need to open all
plugins when updating the registry. When reading the registry we can register
the elements entierly from the cache.
Add colour image enhancement element based on Retinex algorithm. Two types
exist, namely basic and multiscale; both are described in this article:
Rahman, Zia-ur, Daniel J. Jobson, and Glenn A. Woodell. "Multi-scale retinex
for color image enhancement." Image Processing, 1996. Proceedings.,
International Conference on. Vol. 3. IEEE, 1996
Visually speaking the result looks a bit funny, but is pretty invariable to
lightning changes, which is good for some applications, like image
segmentation.

The decoder output frames in DTS order, even with the flag
kVTDecodeFrame_EnableTemporalProcessing. We store a internal
queue of the decoded frames and push them PTS order.
