e9c68347f0 curlhttpsrc: add support for range GET
To allow curlhttpsrc to support DASH streams that use the on-demand
profile, it needs to support HTTP Range GETs. In GStreamer, the RANGE
is specified by issuing a GST_FORMAT_BYTES seek to set the start and
end of the range. curlhttpsrc needs to implement seek and set the
appropriate curl options to make it add the Range header to the
request.

d2d912f34a tests: curlhttpsrc: add unit tests
Based upon the souphttpsrc tests, add unit tests for the curlhttpsrc
element. The souphttpsrc tests are able to use an HTTP server that
is provided as part of the soup library. This does not exist in the
curl library, therefore these tests provide a very simple HTTP server
using the GIO library.

These curlhttpsrc tests contain one new test that does not come from
the souphttpsrc tests. The test_multiple_http_requests test tries to
reproduce the way in which GstAdaptiveDemux makes use of URI source
elements. GstAdaptiveDemux creates a bin with the httpsrc element
and a queue element and sets the locked state of that bin to TRUE,
so that it does not follow the state transitions of its parent. It
then moves this bin to the PLAYING state to start each download and
back to READY when the download completes.
