Currently, when rtspsrc property add-reference-timestamp-metadata=true,
a downstream rtph264depay element will attach multiple copies of the
same GstReferenceTimestampMeta to the depayloaded media buffers. This
can have signficant performance impacts further downstream in a pipeline
like the following:
rtspsrc add-reference-timestamp-metadata=true ! rtph264depay ! h264parse ! ... ! rtph264pay ! ...
For example, if there are 10 packet buffers for a frame of RTP H.264
video, each of those packet buffers will contain the same reference
timestamp meta. The rtph264depay element will then attach all 10
metadata to the depayloaded frame. And then later when we payload the
frame buffer again for proxying, we now have 10 more buffers each with
10 instance of the same metadata. Allocating/deallocating 100+ instances
of metadata @ 30fps for multiple streams has a pretty large performance
impact.

This allows correct handling of wrapping around backwards during the
first wraparound period and avoids the infamous "Cannot unwrap, any
wrapping took place yet" error message.
It allows makes sure that for actual timestamp jumps a valid value is
returned instead of 0, which then allows the caller to handle it
properly. Not having this can have the caller see the same timestamp (0)
for a very long time, which for example can cause rtpjitterbuffer to
output the same timestamp for a very long time.

It is valid to have the padding set to 1 on the first packet and it
happens very often from TWCC packets coming from libwebrtc. This means
that we were totally ignoring many TWCC packets.
Fix test that checked that a first packet with padding was not valid and
instead test a single twcc packet with padding to check precisely what
this patch was about.

The decision to store the input buffer depends on whether extensions
are to be added to the output buffer, I assume as an optimization.
This creates an issue for subclasses that call negotiate(), where
header_exts is actually populated, from their handle_buffer()
implementation: at chain time, no header extension has been negotiated
yet, which means that we don't add extensions to the first batch of
buffers that comes out.
Keep track of whether negotiate has been called (this is different
from the negotiated field) and always store the input buffer until
then. This fixes the issue while largely preserving the optimization.

Currently the extension data length specified in the RTP header would
say it was shorter then the data serialised to a packet. When
combining the resulting buffer, the underlying memory would still
contain the extra (now 0-filled) padding data.
This would mean that parsing the resulting RTP packet would potentially
start with a number of 0-filled bytes which many RTP formats are not
expecting.
Such usage is found by e.g. RTP header extension when allocating the
maximum buffer (which may be larger than the written size) and shrinking
to the required size the data once all the rtp header extension data has
been written.

Introduces a `libraries` variable that contains all libraries in a
list with the following format:
``` meson
libraries = [
[pkg_name, {
'lib': library_object
'gir': [ {full gir definition in a dict } ]
],
....
]
```
It therefore refactors the way we build the gir so that we can reuse the
same information to build them against 'gstreamer-full' in gst-build
when linking statically

Since the base class now does the parsing, there is no need
to reproduce that code in all the subclasses, just pass the attributes
which are the only relevant bit anyway.
Also, only store the direction if the subclass accepted the caps
