Does not matter here but makes Coverity more happy. It can't
know that g_list_remove() only looks at the pointer value but
does not dereference it.

There's not much lost by having the clock idle around a bit longer but it will
potentially allow anybody wanting to use the same clock server again to sync
much faster.
If multiple net/NTP clocks are created for the same server, reuse the same
internal clock for all of them. This makes sure that we don't flood the server
with too many requests and also possibly allows faster synchronization if
there already was an earlier synchronized clock when creating a new one.

The internal clock is only used for slaving against the remote clock, while
the user-facing GstClock can be additionally slaved to another clock if
desired. By default, if no master clock is set, this has exactly the same
behaviour as before. If a master clock is set (which was not allowed before),
the user-facing clock is reporting the remote clock as internal time and
slaves this to the master clock.
This also removes the weirdness that the internal time of the netclientclock
was always the system clock time, and not the remote clock time.

This uses all of the netclientclock code, except for the generation and
parsing of packets. Unfortunately some code duplication was necessary
because GstNetTimePacket is public API and couldn't be extended easily
to support NTPv4 packets without breaking API/ABI.
We extend our calculations to work with local send time, remote receive time,
remote send time and local receive time. For the netclientclock protocol,
remote receive and send time are assumed to be the same value.
For the results, this modified calculation makes absolutely no difference
unless the two remote times are different.
This improves accuracy on wifi or similar networks, where the RTT can go very
high up for a single observation every now and then. Without filtering them
away completely, they would still still modify the average RTT, and thus all
clock estimations.
They don't necessarily use the same underlying clocks (e.g. on Windows), or
might be configured to a different clock type (monotonic vs. real time clock).
We need the values a clean system clock returns, as those are the values used
by the internal clocks.
