We always work in passthrough mode so there's no point in doing
something more clever in basetransform. Also the basetransform
code leads to problems with incomplete caps and downstream
elements that use GST_PAD_FLAG_ACCEPT_INTERSECT.

Default to not creating lots of overhead by doing a couple of
g_strdup_printf()/g_free() per buffer or event just to generate
a last-message update that rarely anyone listens to. This means
that you need to enable silent=true explicitly in order to get
last-message dumps in gst-launch -v now. On the upside, people
won't inadvertently end up benchmarking g_strdup_printf()
performance instead of gstreamer data handling performance any
more.
Maybe the silent property should be renamed to enable-last-message
or something like that?
Correctly mark passthrough on the baseclass so that it can correctly do the
allocation of the output buffers.
Remove our custom prepare_output_buffer function now that the baseclass is
smarter.

Note: did not merge any of the basetransform changes from 0.10.
Implement the sink event handling like the src event handler. Make the default
implementation parse and forward the event. This makes it possible to actually
return an error value from the event handler.
Remove the requirement to have to return a ref to the input buffer when in
passthrough mode. This saves a few ref/unref cycles and fixes another 0.11
FIXME.
Remove the caps and size from the prepare_output_buffer function. with
bufferpools and capsnego done differently, we don't need this in most cases and
if we do, we can simply use the transform_size function and get the caps from
the srcpad.
Improve GstSegment, rename some fields. The idea is to have the GstSegment
structure represent the timing structure of the buffers as they are generated by
the source or demuxer element.
gst_segment_set_seek() -> gst_segment_do_seek()
Rename the NEWSEGMENT event to SEGMENT.
Make parsing of the SEGMENT event into a GstSegment structure.
Pass a GstSegment structure when making a new SEGMENT event. This allows us to
pass the timing info directly to the next element. No accumulation is needed in
the receiving element, all the info is inside the element.
Remove gst_segment_set_newsegment(): This function as used to accumulate
segments received from upstream, which is now not needed anymore because the
segment event contains the complete timing information.
Make sure property names passed to g_object_notify() are in the canonical form
(ie. "last-message" not "last_message"), so that g_param_spec_pool_lookup()
doesn't have to do strdup/canonicalize/free for every single notify call.
This only applies when building against older GLib versions (< 2.26).
Use more efficient g_object_notify_by_pspec() if we're compiling against
GLib >= 2.26, and also remove work-around for g_object_notify() thread-
safety issues with older GLib versions if it's not needed any more.
There's not much point in using GST_DEBUG_FUNCPTR with GObject
virtual functions such as get_property, set_propery, finalize and
dispose, since they'll never be used by anyone anyway. Saves a
few bytes and possibly a tenth of a polar bear.
Out-of-band events might lead to us calling g_object_notify() from a
non-streaming thread, which can cause crashes if g_object_notify() is
being called from the streaming thread at the same time. See #554460.
