Fixes abort when the old specifiers are used. Fix up the conversion
specifier, it would get overwritten with 'c' below to the extension
format char, which then later is unhandled, leading to the abort.
Also fix up and enable unit test for this.

These account for both possible type size mismatch AND -mms-bitfields
packing. Sizes are taken from an i686-w64-mingw32-built GStreamer,
gcc 4.8.0, mingw-w64 svn-r5685.
Fixes#697551
This is equal to any other caps features but results in unfixed caps. It
would be used by elements that only look at the buffer metadata or are
currently working in passthrough mode, and as such don't care about any
specific features.
These are meant to specify features in caps that are required
for a specific structure, for example a specific memory type
or meta.
Semantically they could be though of as an extension of the media
type name of the structures and are handled exactly like that.
Set operations on the bitmasks don't make much sense and result
in invalid caps when used as a channel-mask. They are now handled
exactly like integers.
This functionality was not used anywhere except for tests.

Fixes negotiation taking a ridiculous amount of
time (multiple 10s of seconds on a core2) when
there are duplicate entries in lists.
Could have a negative performance impact on other
scenarios because we now have to iterate the
dest list to avoid duplicates, but we don't
have a lot of lists any more these days, and
they tend to be small anyway. The negatives
are hopefully countered by the positive effects
of reducing the list length early on in the
process. And in any case, it's the right thing
to do.
Based on patch by Andre Moreira Magalhaes.

Also add test to make sure that if a pad probe is removed while it's
callback is running, the cleanup_hook isn't called again if it
returns GST_PAD_PROBE_REMOVE
Our check would make sure that GLib segfaults when
someone tries to instantiate an abstract type, which
is an extremely useful thing to check for.
In newer GLibs this is fixed and we get an abort with
a g_error() now it seems, so let's just remove this
check entirely.
This is because we need to be able to signal different TOCs
to downstream elements such as muxers and the application,
and because we need to send both types as events (because
the sink should post the TOC messages for the app in the
end, just like tag messages are now posted by the sinks),
and hence need to make TOC events multi-sticky.
