Set positioning-mode=pixels-absolute to allow positioning with
absolute coordinates, meaning negative x/y offsets will be
interpreted as being to the left/above the video frame instead
of being interpreted as relative to the right/bottom edge of
the video frame (which is a silly default, but that's how it is).
This means we can nicely slide images into and out of the frame,
see gdkpixbufoverlay-test.

After creating the ringbuffer we have to set the device on the ringbuffer as
it defaults to kAudioDeviceUnknown. At this point it can't have changed to
anything else yet and we don't have to notify about changes to the sink/src
"device" property. It's also not a good idea because GstAudioBaseSrc has the
object lock taken while the ringbuffer is created, which might cause a
deadlock if something calls back into the element from "notify::device".
Once the base class is done with the NULL_TO_READY state change, it has opened
the device via the ringbuffer and this might have chosen a different device.
Especially if we initially used kAudioDeviceUnknown. Also notify about this
property change as initially intended by this code.
Instead of constantly querying upstream, just cache the last duration,
and in the unlikelyness we might have gone over query again before
deciding we are EOS.
Cut 15% cpu off matroskademux streaming thread (srsly...)
This is meant to be so (https://wiki.xiph.org/MatroskaOpus - while
it is marked as a draft, this part was confirmed to be correct on
IRC), and allows one to determine whether a demuxed stream is
multistream or not, and thus set the multistream caps field
accordingly. In turn, this means downstream does not have to guess.

It's like rendering a buffer list, just with one buffer.
Has the added advantage that if there are multiple clients
we can send the buffer to all the clients in one go.
We unlock and re-lock the client lock while emitting the
removed signal, which causes inconsistencies in the client
list vs. the client counts. Instead, remove the client from
the list already before emitting the signal and put it into
a temporary list of clients to be removed. That way things
look consistent to the streaming thread, but signal callbacks
can still do things like get stats from removed clients.
Add prototype for a render_list() function that can use a
sendmmsg-style g_socket_send_messages() function once it lands
in GLib. We can use this infrastructure to send multiple buffers
made up by multiple memories to multiple clients in one go, which
drastically reduces the number of syscalls made when sending
high-bitrate video streams.

Use the refcount for memory management and keep track
of the number of duplicate clients in a separate
variable. This will be useful later, and means we
don't have to hold the OBJECT_LOCK all the time.

It looks like libv4l2 support for CREATE_BUF is incomplete. That
combine with existing bugs may lead to crash in GStreamer. These
check will make it robust by:
- Checking create buf index isn't an already in used index
- Checking that the index out of QUERYBUF matches the requested
index
Right now we try to be clever by detecting if device format have
changed or not, and skip setting format in this case. This is valid
behaviour with V4L2, but it's also very error prone. The rational
for not setting these all the time is for speed, though I can't
measure any noticeable gain on any HW I own. Also, until recently,
we where doing get/set on the format for each format we where
probing, making it near to impossible that the format would match.
This also fixes bug where we where skipping frame-rate setting if
format didn't change.

Since "basetransform: Fix caps equality check" commit a7f357,
set_info() will not be called anymore if crop didn't change
the caps. This is fixed by setting "need_update" boolean when
cropping properties has been changed, and then applying these
if they where not applied before rendering the next frame. This
patch also fixed the locking, dropping un-needed custom lock,
and no holding needless lock while doing the operation as we
already hold the streaming lock.

It's unlikely that setting a channel layout will do much for AC3/DTS
streams. If we find at some point that it does make sense, we can
perform the structure copying unconditionally (i.e., the current code is
wrong, since AC3/DTS will get two structures now - one with the channel
layout, one without).

Now that device selection has no sink/source-specific bits, we can have
generic device selection for this path. We do need to now track state
changes so we can look up the final device_id once the device is open,
though.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740987
This is conceptually the right thing to do, and allows us to correctly
catch errors in device selection as well, which we could not do while
creating the ringbuffer.

In some cases the currently set GstVideoInfo is not interlaced, but
upstream caps are interlaced and the info is passed in the filter,
we should take that info into account and make sure that we do not
consider that case as a "pass through" case.

A race condition in the state change function may cause buffers
to be unreffed while they are still used by the streaming thread
in gst_rtp_h264_pay_send_sps_pps() resulting in a crash. Chain
up to the parent class first in the state change function to
make sure streaming has stopped and only then free those buffers.
