Since caps are no longer 'shared' between two pads (but forwarded from
source pad to sink pad) we end up with the first chain pad not having
specified caps (i.e. typefind:src).
This solves the issues by getting the pad's peer caps.
It is not optimal since it will (for most demuxers) return the pad
template caps, which might contain non-fixed caps (ex : with
qtdemux "video/quicktime; video/mj2; audio/x-m4a; application/x-3gp")

... to avoid unnecessary spurious errors (upon e.g. shutdown).
If a real error is applicable in this unusual circumstance (missing other pad),
other (STREAM_LOCK protected) call paths can take care of that.
We have removed things like protocol=gdp in the tcp elements
in favour of explicit gdppay/depay elements, so there's no need
to keep a public API and library for now. We can still add it
back later. Someone needs to think hard about 0.11 and gdp
anyway one of these days.
Make a new method to allocate a buffer + memory that takes the allocator and the
alignment as parameters. Provide a macro for the old method but prefer to use
the new method to encourage plugins to negotiate the allocator properly.
Improve GstSegment, rename some fields. The idea is to have the GstSegment
structure represent the timing structure of the buffers as they are generated by
the source or demuxer element.
gst_segment_set_seek() -> gst_segment_do_seek()
Rename the NEWSEGMENT event to SEGMENT.
Make parsing of the SEGMENT event into a GstSegment structure.
Pass a GstSegment structure when making a new SEGMENT event. This allows us to
pass the timing info directly to the next element. No accumulation is needed in
the receiving element, all the info is inside the element.
Remove gst_segment_set_newsegment(): This function as used to accumulate
segments received from upstream, which is now not needed anymore because the
segment event contains the complete timing information.
Hide the GstStructure of the event in the implementation specific part so that
we can change it.
Add methods to check and make the event writable.
Add a new method to get a writable GstStructure of the element.
Avoid directly accising the event structure.
So run-time bindings can introspect the names correctly (we abuse this
field as description field only in elements, not for public API
(where the description belongs into the gtk-doc chunk).

Adds that warning to configure.ac
Includes a tiny change of the GST_BOILERPLATE_FULL() macro:
The get_type() function is no longer declared before being defined.
