This reverts commit 1a1a9e143f.
This breaks the pipelines/tagschecking unit test for some reason
(fakesrc ! capsfilter ! qtmux linking fails now). It might be
a bug in the unit test of course, but someone will need to
investigate this. Reverting for now.

motivation comes from: /* FIXME: why not gst_pad_get_pad_template (pad); */
this code path is quite nicer, we now only revert to creating the template
if gst_pad_get_pad_template fails.
with this fork, we gain a non-allocation of GstCaps *templcaps

We usually first create the stream_id for the stream_start event and then add
the pad to the element. This means that this functions should work when there
are no pads on the element yet.
In the proxy_query_caps function, also filter against the filter in the query.
We don't need to filter against the filter in the query anymore in the default
caps query function because we already did this in the proxy_query_caps.
These changes are to clean up syntax issues such as missing colons,
missing spaces, etc., and minor issues such as argument names in
headers not matching the implementation and/or documentation.
Add gst_buffer_append() which appends the memory blocks from one buffer to
another. Remove the old inefficient _merge() and _join() methods which forced a
premature memcpy in most cases.
Remove the _is_span() and _span() methods they are not needed anymore now that
we can _append(). Merging and spanning will be delayed until mapping or maybe
not at all when the element can deal with the different memory blocks.
Rework some caps operations so they don't rely on writable caps but instead take
ownership of the input caps and do _make_writable() only when needed.
Remove some const from caps functions, it does not make much sense for
refcounted objects and does not allow us to return a refcount to the const input
caps.
Rework the base classes fixate vmethods to not operate on the caps in-place.
All this saves us around 30% of caps and structure copy and new operations.
fix the proxy functions for query_accept_caps and query_caps to use the pad
forward helper functions which correctly forwards on the internally linked pads.
Remove the getcaps function on the pad and use the CAPS query for
the same effect.
Add PROXY_CAPS to the pad flags. This instructs the default caps event and query
handlers to pass on the CAPS related queries and events. This simplifies a lot
of elements that passtrough caps negotiation.
Make two utility functions to proxy caps queries and aggregate the result. Needs
to use the pad forward function instead later.
Make the _query_peer_ utility functions use the gst_pad_peer_query() function to
make sure the probes are emited properly.
