Some NLE tests were calling ges_init() from the test suite
initialization function. This was causing them to deadlock when running
with glib 2.76.3.
ges_init() causes a GThreadPool to be initialized. Even if GES at this
point doesn't request any thread to be created, since glib 2.63.4+
(see 8aeca4fa64)
the first time a GThreadPool is initialized a "pool-spawner" thread is
created, which is later used by g_thread_pool_push().
The default behavior of the GStreamer check tests is to fork for every
test case. This is not safe if any thread has been created at this
point. In this particular case, GThreadPool preserves the state that
says a "pool-spawner" thread has been created, and will have access to
its mutex and condition variable, but their queues will have different
contents as the memory has been forked. In consequence, calls to
g_thread_pool_push() will deadlock.
The deadlock will not occur if running the tests with CK_FORK=no.
This patch modifies the affected tests to only call ges_init() from
inside the test cases, fixing the deadlock.

A significant portion of the NLE test suite was often timing out due to
the tests taking way longer than necessary because the sinks were
synchronizing to the clock, which is the default behavior for
fakevideosink and fakeaudiosink.
Notable was the case of nleoperation.c:test_pyramid_operations, that ran
through a 10 second stream twice. As the default timeout is 20 seconds,
this made the test flaky.

Allow a project to use gstreamer-full as a static library
and link to create a binary without dependencies.
Introduce the option 'gst-full-target-type' to
select the build type, dynamic(default) or static.
In gstreamer-full/static build configuration gstreamer (gst.c)
needs the symbol gst_init_static_plugins which is defined
in gstreamer-full.
All the tests and examples are linking with gstreamer but the
symbol gst_init_static_plugins is only defined in the gstreamer-full
library. gstreamer-full can not be built first as it needs to know what plugins
will be built.
One option would be to build all the examples and tests after
gstreamer-full as the tools.
Disable tools build in subprojects too as it will be built at the end of
build process.

There are cases where user might want to be in full control of the
timeline and not be limited by the checks that are being done by GES
to go from one timeline layout to another, this should be doable as
it is a valid use case.

The previous code was storing container children in reverse
addition order, this was mitigated by the fact that track elements
were also stored in reverse order, thus restoring the original
order, but it seems more consistent to preserve order throughout,
the extra cost of append operations is negligible.

... in favour of dep.get_variable('foo', ..) which in some
cases allows for further cleanups in future since we can
extract variables from pkg-config dependencies as well as
internal dependencies using this mechanism.

And use a simple GStreamer pipeline as testsrcbin with GstTranscoder
doesn't let us easily set the framerate of the source and we end up
having videorate dropping frames leading to the rendered file having
an unprecise duration.
This should fix races with `check.gst-editing-services.pythontests.pyunittest.python.test_assets.TestTimeline.test_reload_asset`
