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.

Allowing better control over the way discovery happens and allowing
us to expose a proper API.
This also adds the potential of implementing more multi-threaded
discovery in a clean way in the future.
This allows us to cleanly expose the new
GstDiscoverer::load-serialize-info signal.

When constructing an output profile using --profile-from, it is useful
to be able to override the top level container profile.
Expose a --container-profile option that applies as an override after
other methods for constructing an output profile have run. If no other
method was used, this will result in an empty top level container.

When uridecodebin exposes pads for its streams, we immediately ghost
the relevant (selected) one and let composition send a seek as soon as a
buffer is probed.
This means that sometimes uridecodebin is still linking elements
internally (for non-selected streams) and sees flush events travel down
the elements it is still busy trying to link / forward sticky events to.
This causes all sorts of nasty issues, which can be avoided by simply
blocking all data flow from the source until no-more-pads has been
emitted by uridecodebin (or whatever sub_element is wrapped).
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/3971>
This most likely never caused any issues as we don't connect to
no-more-pads in the first place, and the element isn't directly exposed
to the user, but emitting it makes no sense, and we are actually going
to connect to no-more-pads in a subsequent commit.
The call was added in 86b893e54c, a patch
by me in 2013, I have no idea why but I probably didn't have a firm
grasp on what I was doing then.

The gst-devtools project generates gstreamer-validate-1.0.pc, this
must match the dependency in gst-editing-services for detection
to work properly.
Fixes:
Run-time dependency gst-validate-1.0 found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)

As the path to the gir file is passed to hotdoc.generate_doc() and
not the build target itself, meson doesn't know about the dependency.
In turn, as the CI doesn't build everything before building the
documentation target, some gir files might not exist, for instance
in the case of gst-rtsp-server, causing the output documentation to
be empty.
The error occurred silently because hotdoc accepts wildcards for
*-sources arguments, thus it won't warn about a missing gir file as
it is legitimate for glob matching to resolve to nothing.

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.

Starting with Meson 0.62, meson automatically populates the variables
list in the pkgconfig file if you reference builtin directories in the
pkgconfig file (whether via a custom pkgconfig variable or elsewhere).
We need this, because ${prefix}/libexec is a hard-coded value which is
incorrect on, for example, Debian.
Bump requirement to 0.62, and remove version compares that retained
support for older Meson versions.

GLib made the unfortunate decision to prevent libgobject from ever being
unloaded, which means that now any library which registers a static type
can't ever be unloaded either (and any library that depends on those,
ad nauseam).

Instead of trying to hardcode site-packages paths for different platforms
just use python.get_install_dir() from meson and let it deal with the rest.
Also no longer try to import pygobject, which would otherwise not be
required at build time.
python.get_install_dir() was at the beginning broken on Windows, but
that was fixed in 0.60 via https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/9156
and since ges now requires >0.60 this can be ignored.
This change was motivated by the install path being wrong under MSYS2, where
the unix install layout is used and the detection code not taking that into
account.

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.

This transition is meant to be very similar to crossfade, but
instead of fading out the background video at the same time as the
foreground fades in, the background video stays at 100% opacity
during the whole transition.
This essentially "restores" the old crossfade behaviour that was changed in:
eb48faf342
but using a new type enum, so that both behaviours are available,
letting applications choose.

They are part of gst_dep already and we have to make sure to always have
gst_dep. The order in dependencies matters, because it is also the order
in which Meson will set -I args. We want gstreamer's config.h to take
precedence over glib's private config.h when it's a subproject.
While at it, remove useless fallback args for gmodule/gio dependencies,
only gstreamer core needs it.

... 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.

For monorepo build and ugly/bad, for advanced feature
option API like get_option('xyz').required(..) which
we use in combination with the 'gpl' option.
For rest of modules for consistency (people will likely
use newer features based on the top-level requirement).
