This way one can define new tracing probes without changing the core. We are
using our own quark table, as 1) we only want to initialize them if we're
tracing, 2) we want to share them with the tracers.
Instead of a single invoke() function and a 'mask', register to individual
hooks. This avoids one level of indirection and allows us to remove the
hook enums. The message enms are now renamed to hook enums.
This way we only expand the structure when we're logging. This allows us to
meassure the pure tracing seperately from the logging.
Also add some comments on further improvements.
Keep tracer base class in tracer and move core support into the utils module.
Add a unstable-api guard to the tracer.h so that external modules would need to
acknowledge the status by setting GST_USE_UNSTABLE_API.
When adding an element to a bin we need to propagate the GstContext's
to/from the element.
This moves the GstContext list from GstBin to GstElement and adds
convenience functions to get the currently set list of GstContext's.
This does not deal with the collection of GstContext's propagated
using GST_CONTEXT_QUERY. Element subclasses are advised to call
gst_element_set_context if they need to propagate GstContext's
received from the context query.

A proxy-pad should always proxy the caps related queries
and events to its down or upstream peers on the other side
of the element. Falling back to a caps query seems wrong.

gst_segment_to_position might cause confusion, especially with the addition of
gst_segment_position_from_stream_time . Deprecated gst_segment_to_position
now, and replaced it with gst_segment_position_from_running_time.
Also added unit tests.
gst_segment_position_from_stream_time() will convert stream time into a
position in the segment so that gst_segment_to_stream_time() with that
position returns the same stream time. It will return -1 if the stream time
given is not inside the segment.
When a running-time-offset is stored in the event, it could become smaller
than 0 although the event is otherwise correct. This can happen when pad
offsets are used.
To prevent this, we set the timestamp to -diff, so that in the end the sum of
both is exactly 0.

This fixes a race where a state change may return failure if it has
request pads that are deactivated and removed (and thus have no
parent) at the same time as the element changes state and (de)activates
its pads.

In some cases, probes might want to handle the buffer/event/query
themselves and stop the data from travelling further downstream.
While this was somewhat possible with buffer/events and using
GST_PROBE_DROP, it was not applicable to queries, and would result
in the query failing.
With this new GST_PROBE_HANDLED value, the buffer/event/query will
be considered as successfully handled, will not be pushed further
and the appropriate return value (TRUE or GST_FLOW_OK) will be returned
This also allows probes to return a non-default GstFlowReturn when dealing
with buffer push. This can be done by setting the
GST_PAD_PROBE_INFO_FLOW_RETURN() field accordingly
