Calling gst_buffer_get_size represented 2/3 of the cost of helper_find_peek
which was called whenever a typefindfunction wanted to peek at data.
We already know the size (from the GstMapInfo), so just use that.
Tweak the documentation slightly to clarify that the estimated-total in
a a Buffering query the total remaining time of a download, not the
total time for the complete download. Also indicate the unit used.

When asked about the scheduling flags first check with upstream and
simply add the _SEEKABLE flag when using a temporary file as storage.
This enables the forwarding of _SEQUENTIAL and _BANDWIDTH_LIMITED from
sources if needed.

A new active pad might not be notified in some cases, which results
in the current track number not being set in playbin.
The active-pad notification is only sent in the chain and sink_event
functions, and only when the buffer or event that triggered the active
pad selection is from the newly activated pad. So in the other case
the notification will never be sent.

If all stream-start messages had a group id (for backwards compatibility),
we only consider a stream started if all had the same group id.
In 2.0 we should make the group id mandatory.
All streams that have the same group id are supposed to be played
together, i.e. all streams inside a container file should have the
same group id but different stream ids. The group id should change
each time the stream is started, resulting in different group ids
each time a file is played for example.
We must be certain that we don't cause a deadlock when blocking the serialized
queries. One such deadlock can happen when we are buffering and downstream is
blocked in preroll and a serialized query arrives. Downstream will not unblock
(and allow our query to execute) until we complete buffering and buffering will
not complete until we can answer the query..

Otherwise we might get deadlocks caused by lock order inversion:
During the chain function the stream lock is first locked and then the
inputselector lock. During pad release we first locked the inputselector
lock and then deactivating the pad would lock the stream lock.
There's no reason why the inputselector lock should be required while
deactivating and removing the pad, it's only needed before.
