Support for (nullable) was added to G-I at the same time as nullable
return values. Previous versions of G-I will not mark return values as
nullable, even when an (allow-none) annotation is present, so it is
not necessary to add (allow-none) annotations for compatibility with
older versions of G-I.

When a pad is added the need-parent flag is set to true, so when
they are removed the flag should be set back to false
This was preventing GstPads to be reused in elements (removed and
later re-added). A unit tests was added to verify that this is
working now.
The use case is tsdemux that has a program-number property and
allows the user to switch programs. In order to do that tsdemux
will remove the pads of the current program and add from the new
ones. The removed pads are kept in the demuxer for later if the
user selects the old program again.
They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.
and remove all the printf extension/specifier stuff for
the system printf. Next we need to add back the custom
specifiers to our own printf implementation.

Elements should override GstElement::set_context() and also call
gst_element_set_context() to keep this context up-to-date with
the very latest context they internally use.
The order of returned pads wasn't specified before, so let's specify
it and use an order which might prove the most useful : the order in
which pads were added to the element.
If someone changes the order, make sure users of those iterators from
now on don't rely on that order !
In the dispose handler we first need to release all the request pads and then
remove the remaining pads. This is because it is possible that releasing the
request pad might also cleanly remove some of the other dynamic pads, like
what rtpsession does.

Add gst_element_class_{add,set}_metadata() variants for static strings,
so we can avoid unnecessary g_strdup()s.
API: gst_element_class_add_static_metadata()
API: gst_element_class_set_static_metadata()
There are many good use cases for GstIndex and we want
to add it back again in some form, but possibly not with
the current API, which is very powerful (maybe too powerful),
but also a bit confusing. At the very least we'd need to
make the API bindings-friendly.
Add private replacements for deprecated functions such as
g_mutex_new(), g_mutex_free(), g_cond_new() etc., mostly
to avoid the deprecation warnings. We can't change most of
these in 0.10 because they're part of our API and ABI.
Add a new pad flag NEED_PARENT that ensures that the parent of a pad is
reffed and not NULL when the event, query and internal links functions
are called.
When a pad is added to an element automatically make sure the NEED_PARENT flag
is enabled.
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.
Move the flag to indicate that a new_base_time should be distributed to the
pipeline, from the async_start to the async_done message. This would allow us to
decide when to reset the pipeline time based on other reasons than the
FLUSH_START event.
The main goal eventually is to make the FLUSH events not reset time at all but
reset the time based on the first buffer or segment that prerolls the pipeline
again.
This reverts commit cf4fbc005c.
This change did not improve the situation for bindings because
queries are usually created, then directly passed to a function
and not stored elsewhere, and the writability problem with
miniobjects usually happens with buffers or caps instead.
API: GstElement::state_changed
This is always called when the state of an element has changed and
before the corresponding state-changed message is posted on the bus.
This allows to add pad templates and set metadata in class_init instead of
base_init. base_init is a concept that is not supported by almost all
languages and copying the templates/metadata for subclasses is the more
intuitive way of doing things.
Subclasses can override pad templates of parent classes by adding a new
template with the same now.
Also gst_element_class_add_pad_template() now takes ownership of the
pad template, which was assumed by all code before anyway.
Fixes bug #491501.
Some applications are requesting the same pad name multiple times
and the behaviour is undefined and different from element to element
but we don't want to break applications that work just fine.
In 0.11 this check should be an assertion again, although elements
have to do manual checking if the pad already exists again because
it can't be done in a threadsafe way here.
This commit changes the request pad behaviour for plugins and applications.
Reopens Bug #402562
The proper fix for that bug is to keep track of created request pads.
This reverts commit a5e44ffffa.
