This just confuses people, they look at it and try to call it
directly by name, instead of using the public GstElement API.
It stands to reason that it goes without saying that when an
element provides request pads that they can actually be
requested using the standard API, and there's no point in
printing internal implementation details of the element.

Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)
* Seriously fast configure and building on embedded
... and many more. For more details see:

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
Add missing 'else' and print caps and taglists without the
annoying duplicate string escaping, making both nicer to read.
Fixes string leak and coverity CID 1358492.
When g_option_context_parse fails, context and error variables are not getting free'd
which results in memory leaks. Free'ing the same.
And replacing g_error_free with g_clear_error, which checks if the error being passed
is not NULL and sets the variable to NULL on free'ing.

gst-indent used to support gnuindent and indent as executable names.
However, on OSX one can "brew install gnu-indent" and then the
executable name will be gindent. Added support for that.

TRUE is 1, but every other non-zero value is also considered true. Comparing
for equality with TRUE would only consider 1 but not the others.
Also normalize booleans in a few places.
Don't print all the different pad functions, it's just
confusing and no one has ever needed to know this for
anything ever anyway, it's just useless information.
Besides, we also label the default implementations as
'custom' implementations (the code that tries to
prevent that doesn't actually work it seems).

GLib in git will spew a g_warning() when a property marked as
deprecated via param spec flags is accessed. Suppress this by
setting the appropriate environment variable.
If the toplevel bin is not not a pipeline, we place the bin in a
pipeline. Also make sure that we connect to the deep-notify of this new
pipeline because we will g_signal_handler_disconnect() from it later.
