The base videodecoder class has an error counting feature to tolerate
a few errors before posting an error message. So don't force the
error and let the base class decide when it should happen

The source hdv1394src has the guid property that permits select a camera
connected from its GUID number.
However when this property is setted the selected camera is not changed.
The source continues using the default camera.
This problem was solved using the function iec61883_cmp_connect.
The reference for the function could be found here:
http://www.dennedy.org/libiec61883/API-iec61883-cmp-connect.html
The solution came from dvgrab source code.

If the pipeline is stalled for too long, souphttpsrc will block and
stop fetching data from the network. This can cause the connection to
drop and souphttpsrc would handle it as an EOS. This patch makes it
persist and try to fetch more data until the end of the content length
or until receiving an error that it is beyong limits in case the content
is unknown.

Since jpegdec already parse the jpeg stream, the sink caps could be
relaxed. This will allow jpegdec to be selected in more case and in
particular when the jpeg typefinder does not find the width and height.

The audio library considers them as encoded formats and does not fill in the
sample width. The audio ringbuffers identifies the format as alaw/mulaw and that
is always 8 bits.
This reverts commit 01457027e0.
We'll just depend on PulseAudio 2.0 or above instead of having the bug
partially fixed based on the installed libpulse version.
The getcaps function we added uses some pa_format_info_get_prop...
accessor functions that were only added in 2.0, so we only have our
getcaps implementation exist if we're compiling against libpulse 2.0 or
above.
Eventually, we could bump the minimum requirement to 2.0 or above.

getcaps is called frequently during stream setup, and creating a new
stream each time is very inefficient. There's some more room for
optimisation by caching the queried sink formats as well, but this needs
some more changes to listen for format changes on the sink (for when
supported formats change between probe stream creation and sink
querying).

This allows us to have more fine-tuned caps in READY or above. However,
this is _really_ inefficient since we create a new stream and query sink
for every getcaps in READY, which on a simple gst-launch line happens
about 35 times. The next step is to cache getcaps results.
