For each lib we build export its own API in headers when we're
building it, otherwise import the API from the headers.
This fixes linker warnings on Windows when building with MSVC.
The problem was that we had defined all GST_*_API decorators
unconditionally to GST_EXPORT. This was intentional and only
supposed to be temporary, but caused linker warnings because
we tell the linker that we want to export all symbols even
those from externall DLLs, and when the linker notices that
they were in external DLLS and not present locally it warns.
What we need to do when building each library is: export
the library's own symbols and import all other symbols. To
this end we define e.g. BUILDING_GST_FOO and then we define
the GST_FOO_API decorator either to export or to import
symbols depending on whether BUILDING_GST_FOO is set or not.
That way external users of each library API automatically
get the import.
While we're at it, add new GST_API_EXPORT in config.h and use
that for GST_*_API decorators instead of GST_EXPORT.
The right export define depends on the toolchain and whether
we're using -fvisibility=hidden or not, so it's better to set it
to the right thing directly than hard-coding a compiler whitelist
in the public header.
We put the export define into config.h instead of passing it via the
command line to the compiler because it might contain spaces and brackets
and in the autotools scenario we'd have to pass that through multiple
layers of plumbing and Makefile/shell escaping and we're just not going
to be *that* lucky.
The export define is only used if we're compiling our lib, not by external
users of the lib headers, so it's not a problem to put it into config.h
Also, this means all .c files of libs need to include config.h
to get the export marker defined, so fix up a few that didn't
include config.h.
This commit depends on a common submodule commit that makes gst-glib-gen.mak
add an #include "config.h" to generated enum/marshal .c files for the
autotools build.

On Windows, the ringbuffer thread function must have the "Pro Audio"
priority set, otherwise it sometimes doesn't get scheduled for
200-300ms, which will immediately cause an underrun unless you set
a very high latency-time and buffer-time.
This has no compile-time deps since it tries to load avrt.dll at
runtime to set the thread priority.
This is useful if the output buffers are planar and have extra padding
on each plane, in which case size/bpf does not represent the number of
valid samples.

Aggregation will break the layout, as it concatenates buffers,
and fixing it here would be much more inefficient than configuring
the actual decoder implementation to output larger buffers.

The external time should be moved only as much as needed
to get back to the ideal center point, so that the clock
is still allowed to drift both directions after the correction.
This reduces excessive back and forth corrections that were
caused by the assumption of a linear drift.

Otherwise subclasses might accidentially use the old audioinfo/caps.
None of the subclasses currently uses the audioinfo/caps, but future
subclasses might.

In the situation described in
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=795397,
downstream_caps consists of two structures, the first with
the preferred rate, if at all possible (44100), the second
containing the full range of allowed rates, as audioresample
correctly tries to negotiate passthrough caps.
As audioaggregator cannot perform rate conversion, it wants
to return a fixated rate in its getcaps implementation,
however it previously directly used the first structure in
the caps allowed downstream, without taking the filter into
consideration, to determine the rate to fixate to.
With this, we first intersect our downstream caps with the
filter, in order not to fixate to an unsupported rate.
We need different export decorators for the different libs.
For now no actual change though, just rename before the release,
and add prelude headers to define the new decorator to GST_EXPORT.
When outputting more than two channels, a channel-mask has to be
specified in the output caps.
We follow the same heuristic as other cases, when downstream
does not specify a channel-mask, we use that of the first
configured pad, and if there was none we generate a fallback
mask.
