When we receive a video or audio buffer, we calculate the next stream
time based on the current stream time + buffer duration. If the next
buffer's stream time is after that, we issue a warning.
This happens because the stream time incoming from Decklink should be
really constant and without gaps. If there is a gap, it means that
something went wrong, e.g. the internal buffer pool is empty (too many
buffers queued up downstream).

If we drop many frames at once, printing one message per video frame and
one per audio packet would cause a lot of disk IO. Just print a total at
the end.

The buffer itself is 128 bytes into the allocated memory area, to be
able to store the size and other metadata before it. Freeing the buffer
directly will make malloc moderately unhappy.
HRESULT is unsigned long on Windows, but the Decklink headers define
it to 'int' on Linux. Confusingly, the defines that talk about the
possible return values for it use long constants. The easy fix would
be to change the linux/LinuxCOM.h header, but that's copied from the
decklink SDK.
Change the logging to always upcast to unsigned long while printing
HRESULT for consistency across platforms.

The default memory allocator of the decklink library allocates
a fixed pool of buffers, and the number of buffers is unknown.
This makes it impossible do useful queuing downstream. The new
memory allocator can create an unlimited number of buffers,
giving all queuing features one would expect from a live source.

This is basically a frame counter provided by the driver and it's
advancing at the speed of the HDMI/SDI input. Having this available on
each buffer allows to know what constant-framerate-based timestamp each
frame is corresponding to and can be used e.g. to write out files
accordingly without having the local pipeline clock timestamps used.

The audio packet times can be completely unrelated to the video stream
time, depending on the card. While this looks like a bug in the driver,
just always using the video stream time (which is correct) works as a
workaround for now.
This reverts commit 845832263b.
The commit broke cross-mingw CI:
https://ci.gstreamer.net/job/GStreamer-master/8659/console
It seems that cross-mingw on Autotools and native-mingw on Meson
disagree about the size of HRESULT. Revert for now till I can
investigate the Meson side of things some more.
MinGW does not provide comsupp.lib, so there's no implementation of
_com_util::ConvertBSTRToString. Use a fallback implementation that
uses wcstombs() instead.
On MinGW we also truncate the name to 100 chars which should be fine.

This seems to happen sometimes on some hardware, and is not really
critical as long as the scheduling of the normal frames works fine.
Only post a warning message for this case.
and error out here already otherwise. We currently don't support
reconfiguration here and it can't happen really either unless the auto
mode is selected.
