Whenever a new collection is calculated, the internal `select_streams_seqnum`
variable is reset. This ensures that we reliably know whether a select-streams
event has been received for that new collection.
Use that to decide whether we should add previously un-selected streams or new
streams in the current selection
Fixes#784
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-plugins-base/-/merge_requests/733>
In decodebin3 and uridecodebin3 the `force-sw-decoders` boolean property is
added. In uridecodebin3 it is only a proxy property which will forward
the value to decodebin3.
When decodebin3 has `force-sw-decoders` disabled, it will filter out in its
decoder and decodable factories those elements within the 'Hardware'
class, at reconfiguring output stream.
playbin3 adds by default GST_PLAY_FLAG_FORCE_SW_DECODERS, and sets
`force-sw-decoders` property accordingly to its internal uridecodebin, also
filters out the 'Hardware' class decoder elements when caps
negotiation.
When the playsink's sink is activated its state is set to READY but it remains
unlinked. So, in order for decodebin3 to potentially reuse the context later on,
the whole playbin3 needs to have it internally stored.
By passing NULL to `g_signal_new` instead of a marshaller, GLib will
actually internally optimize the signal (if the marshaller is available
in GLib itself) by also setting the valist marshaller. This makes the
signal emission a bit more performant than the regular marshalling,
which still needs to box into `GValue` and call libffi in case of a
generic marshaller.
Note that for custom marshallers, one would use
`g_signal_set_va_marshaller()` with the valist marshaller instead.
This new property controls the synchronisation offset between the text and video
streams. Positive values make the text ahead of the video and negative values
make the text go behind the video.

Buffering messages are only sent for the active group (in case there
is more than one).
If the inactive group posts buffering messages we keep the last one
around and will post it once it becomes the playing one.
Similar in vein to the playbin2 architecture except that uridecodebin3
are prerolled much earlier and all streams of the same type are
fed through a 'concat' element.
This keeps the philosphy of having all elements connected as soon
as possible.
The 'about-to-finish' signal is emitted whenever one of the uridecodebin
is about to finish, allowing the users to set the next uri/suburi.
The notion of a group being active has changed. It now means that the
uridecodebin3 has been activated, but doesn't mean it is the one
currently being outputted by the sinks (i.e. curr_group and next_group).
This is done via detecting GST_MESSAGE_STREAM_START emission by playsink
and figuring out which group is really playing.
When the current group changes, a new thread is started to deactivate
the previous one and optionnaly fire 'about-to-finish'.
Apologies for the big commit, but it wasn't really possible to split it
in anything smaller.
* Switch to uridecodebin3 instead of managing urisourcebin and decodebin3
ourselves. No major architectural change with this.
* Reconfigure sinks/outputs when needed. This is possible thanks to the
various streams-related API. Instead of blocking new pads and waiting
for a (fake) no-more-pads to decide what to connect, we instead reconfigure
playsink and the combiners to whatever types are currently selected. All of
this is done in reconfigure_output().
New pads are immediately connected to (combiners and) sinks, allowing
immediate negotiation and usage.
* Since elements are always connected, the "cached-duration" feature is gone
and queries can reach the target elements.
* The auto-plugging related code is currently disabled entirely until
we get the new proper API.
* Store collections at the GstSourceGroup level and not globally
* And more comments a bit everywhere
NOTE: gapless is still not functional, but this opens the way to be able
to handle it in a streams-aware fashion (where several uridecodebin3 can
be active at the same time).
If select-stream event was send to playbin3 as missing any GstStream of ES type
(V or A or TEX) of collection then, playbin will access to invalid address of
GstStream due to invalid index limit. This caused SIGSEGV.

Application might choose only specific type among all available types
using select-streams event. In this case, it is desired that reconfigure
of playsink to clear unused stream path.
