da73b89200 element: Add API to more easily post messages about flowing issues
In many parts of the code we raise streaming error when the flow
goes wrong, and each time we create more or less similare error
message. Also that message does not let the application know what
has actually gone wrong. In the new API we add a "flow-return" detail
field inside the GstMessage so that the application has all the information
if it needs it.

API:
    GST_ELEMENT_FLOW_ERROR

3cba95ca2a element: rename gst_element_message_new_details() to gst_make_element_message_details()
Fixes g-i warning "Gst: Constructor return type mismatch
symbol='gst_element_message_new_details' constructed='Gst.Element'
return='Gst.Structure'".

This is a newly-added function in git that has not been in a stable
release yet, so it's fine to rename it. It's also only used indirectly
via macros.

b2f9808722 Add support for Meson as alternative/parallel build system
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson

With contributions from:

Tim-Philipp Müller <tim@centricular.com>
Mathieu Duponchelle <mathieu.duponchelle@opencreed.com>
Jussi Pakkanen <jpakkane@gmail.com> (original port)

Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)
* Seriously fast configure and building on embedded

... and many more. For more details see:

http://blog.nirbheek.in/2016/07/building-and-developing-gstreamer-using.html

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.

9fd2101b36 events: Implement the stream-group-done event
A new event which precedes EOS in situations where we
need downstream to unblock any pads waiting on a stream
before we can send EOS. E.g, decodebin draining a chain
so it can switch pads.

1dbb27f3a7 utils: Add gst_pad_link_maybe_ghosting() for consistency

gst_pad_link_full().

8177173db0 element: Add gst_element_call_async()
This calls a function from another thread, asynchronously. This is to be
used for cases when a state change has to be performed from a streaming
thread, directly via gst_element_set_state() or indirectly e.g. via SEEK
events.

Calling those functions directly from the streaming thread will cause
deadlocks in many situations, as they might involve waiting for the
streaming thread to shut down from this very streaming thread.

This is mostly a convenience function around a GThreadPool and is for example
used by GstBin to continue asynchronous state changes.

f876306638 utils: expose pad_link_maybe_ghosting
This is a useful function to automatically add ghost pads when linking
two elements across bin boundaries without know their exact parentage.

e.g. when using gst_parse_bin_from_description (with or without it ghosting pads),
one can simply retreive the src/sink pads from the bin to link to another pad.

Similar functionality is provided by gst_element_link_pads{_full}() however only
by pad name rather than by actual pads.

API: gst_pad_link_maybe_ghosting_full

fa12d23a17 element: add gst_element_class_add_static_pad_template()
Pretty much every single element does

  gst_element_class_add_pad_template (element_class,
      gst_static_pad_template_get (&some_templ));

which is both confusing and unnecessary. We might just
as well add a function to do that in one step.

10b78d872b tracerrecord: add a log record class
We use this class to register tracer log entry metadata and build a log
template. With the log template we can serialize log data very efficiently.
This also simplifies the logging code, since that is now a simple varargs
function that is not exposing the implementation details.

Add docs for the new class and basic tests.

Remove the previous log handler.

347734e529 info: expose debugging printf functions

to g_vasprintf if the debug system is disabled.

might have DTS set (i.e. encoded data, potentially reordered)

To simplify getting the increasing "timestamp" of those buffers, create
a macro that will return the DTS if valid, and if not the PTS

d5ded15889 bin: implement context propagation when adding elements
When adding an element to a bin we need to propagate the GstContext's
to/from the element.

This moves the GstContext list from GstBin to GstElement and adds
convenience functions to get the currently set list of GstContext's.

This does not deal with the collection of GstContext's propagated
using GST_CONTEXT_QUERY.  Element subclasses are advised to call
gst_element_set_context if they need to propagate GstContext's
received from the context query.

position returns the same stream time. It will return -1 if the stream time
given is not inside the segment.

4d4e436376 Add GstParentBufferMeta
A core meta which helps implement the old concept
of sub-buffering in some situations, by making it
possible for a buffer to keep a ref on a different
parent buffer. The parent buffer is unreffed when
the Meta is freed.

This meta is used to ensure that a buffer whose
memory is being shared to a child buffer isn't freed
and returned to a buffer pool until the memory
is.
