Unlike the legacy elements, GstAdaptiveDemuxStream is a GObject now,
so a bunch of things that were actually stream methods on the
parent demux object can directly become stream methods now.
Move the stream class out to a header of its own.

Previously the minimum buffering threshold was hardcoded to a specific
value (10s). This is suboptimal this an actual value will depend on the actual
stream being played.
This commit sets the low watermark threshold in time to 0, which is an automatic
mode. Subclasses can provide a stream `recommended_buffering_threshold` when
update_stream_info() is called.
Currently implemented for HLS, where we recommended 1.5 average segment
duration. This will result in buffering being at 100% when the 2nd segment has
been downloaded (minus a bit already being consumed downstream)

Change the way streams are woken up to download more data.
Instead of checking the level on tracks that are being
output as data is dequeued, calculate a 'wakeup time'
at which it should download more data, and wake up
the stream when the global output position crosses
that threshold.
For efficiency, compute the earliest wakeup time
for all streams and store it on the period, so the
output loop can quickly check only a single value
to decide if something needs waking up.
Does the same buffering as the previous method,
but ensures that as we approach the end of
one period, the next period continues incrementally
downloading data so that it is fully buffered when
the period starts.
Fixes issues with multi-period VOD content where
download of the second period resumes only after
the first period is completely drained.

When advancing fragment in live, it's normal to return
GST_FLOW_EOS when playing at the live edge of the available
fragments. In that case, we still want to adjust bitrate
dynamically.
Fixes issue with dashdemux2 where the current bitrate of
each adaptation set is changed to the lowest one when
updating the mpd for a live stream.

Handle select-streams and seek events in an element
level send_event() vfunc, so they can be received
before any source pads are created.
This allows preferred streams to be selected before
segment downloading starts.

When playing live, it's possible that one stream reaches
the end of the available playback window and goes to sleep
waiting for a manifest update, and the manifest update
introduces a new period. In that case, the sleeping
stream needs to wake up and go 'properly' EOS before we
can advance the input to the new period.
Accordingly, make sure that a stream's last_ret value
is not marked as EOS if it's just sleeping waiting for a live
manifest update.
Also fix the output loop to go back and re-check if it's
time to switch to the next period after dequeuing and
discarding an EOS event.

We are already in the main scheduler thread, therefore we can do the "seek back
to live" directly. This also avoids other pending actions to take place.
Also handle the loss of sync when doing manifest updates.

Close some race conditions in switching to the next period,
by ensuring the tracks are completely drained first and by
not outputting EOS events to the output source pad
if there is another period pending.
Fixes Manifest_MultiPeriod_1080p.mpd some more.

* Since only flushing seeks are allowed, the "current" position is always the
global output position (and not "some" stream current position).
* In terms of figuring out to which stream to "snap" to, we can send it to any
selected stream. Removes the requirement of this function to a specific output
pad.

The stream start and current position would be properly set when seeking or
activating a stream after playback started. But it would never be properly
initialized.
Set it to NONE initially to indicate to subclasses that no position has been
tracked yet. This will allow them to detect initial stream usage.
Futhermore, once the initial streams setup is done, make sure that it is set to
a valid initial value:
* The minimum stream time in live
* Or else the period start

In case of per features registration such as the
customizable gstreamer-full library, each
element should check that the soup library can be loaded to
facilitate the element registration.
Initialize the debug categories properly

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.

This provides new HLS, DASH and MSS adaptive demuxer elements as a single plugin.
These elements offer many improvements over the legacy elements. They will only
work within a streams-aware context (`urisourcebin`, `uridecodebin3`,
`decodebin3`, `playbin3`, ...).
Stream selection and buffering is handled internally, this allows them to
directly manage the elementary streams and stream selection.
