Allow a project to use gstreamer-full as a static library
and link to create a binary without dependencies.
Introduce the option 'gst-full-target-type' to
select the build type, dynamic(default) or static.
In gstreamer-full/static build configuration gstreamer (gst.c)
needs the symbol gst_init_static_plugins which is defined
in gstreamer-full.
All the tests and examples are linking with gstreamer but the
symbol gst_init_static_plugins is only defined in the gstreamer-full
library. gstreamer-full can not be built first as it needs to know what plugins
will be built.
One option would be to build all the examples and tests after
gstreamer-full as the tools.
Disable tools build in subprojects too as it will be built at the end of
build process.

Existing codes rely on modified argc value by g_option_context_parse()
but g_option_context_parse_strv() is used in case of Windows.
Count arguments after the option parsing manually.

This crept in several years ago sadly :(
The usage of accurate seeking should be reserved to use-cases where it is
essential that we seek to that position. This should not be the default.
There is a new option `--acurate-seeks/-a` to be able to force that.
Furthermore, if accurate seeks aren't required, a player should be using the
GST_SEEK_FLAG_KEY_UNIT flag to seek to the closest keyframe and provide the most
reactive experience.

This was the intention from the start, just took me a few years *cough* to
actually implement it properly.
Gapless is handled by re-using as much as possible the same decoders and sinks
if present, and only pre-rolling switching at the sources level (with buffering
if/when needed).
In order to enable "gapless" playback, the "next" uri should be set at any time
between the moment the `about-to-finish` signal is emitted and the moment the
current play item is done. Previously this could only be done with the signal
emission.
This new implementation also allows "Instantaneous URI switching". This allows a
much faster way of switching playback entries while re-using as many elements as
possible. To enable this set `instant-uri` property to TRUE, the default being
FALSE.

gst_value_serialize() does more than what's needed to printf-ing
especially when given GValue is already string. Just print string
value as-is without gst_value_serialize() to avoid unreadable
string print, especially for multi-bytes character encoding cases.

GLib guarantees libintl is always present, using proxy-libintl as
last resort. There is no need to mock gettex API any more.
This fix static build on Windows because G_INTL_STATIC_COMPILATION must
be defined before including libintl.h, and glib does it for us as part
as including glib.h.

timeapi.h is missing in our MinGW toolchain. Include mmsystem.h
header instead, which defines struct and APIs in case of our MinGW
toolchain. Note that in case of native Windows10 SDK (MSVC build),
mmsystem.h will include timeapi.h

They are part of gst_dep already and we have to make sure to always have
gst_dep. The order in dependencies matters, because it is also the order
in which Meson will set -I args. We want gstreamer's config.h to take
precedence over glib's private config.h when it's a subproject.
While at it, remove useless fallback args for gmodule/gio dependencies,
only gstreamer core needs it.

The console HANDLE will be keep signalled state unless application
reads console input buffer immediately. So we should read and flush
console input buffer from the thread where the event is signalled,
instead of GMain context thread.

The instant-rate value in the TrickMode enum is a
flag, but the other values are not. Move instant-rate
to the end of the enum and give it a value large enough
for it to be used without modifying the trick-mode
setting.

Since commit a55dafe341, stream-scoped tags no
longer appeared as top-level tags, introducing a behaviour regression, specially
for MP3 files.
The `gst_discoverer_info_get_tags()` API now returns all tags detected for the
given media, as documented.
A new API is introduced to get container-specific tags,
`gst_discoverer_container_info_get_tags()`. The discoverer tool was adapted to
use it. `gst_discoverer_info_get_tags()` is now deprecated in favor of
`gst_discoverer_container_info_get_tags()` and
`gst_discoverer_stream_info_get_tags()`.
