Previously we were switching from one chunk to another on every single
buffer. This wastes some space in the headers and, depending on the
software, might depend in more reads (e.g. if the software is reading
multiple samples in one go if they're in the same chunk).
The ProRes guidelines suggest an interleave of 0.5s is common, but
specifies that for ProRes at most 2MB (for SD) and 4MB (for HD) should
be used per chunk. This will be handled in a follow-up commit.

It's required for ProRes to work with other software.
It is also in the MP4 standard, but inventing values here seems a bit
tricky for the general case and it does not really give any extra
information.

Use the number of milliframes per second for integral and drop-frame
framerates, as suggested by the QT file format specification and other
places. We already did that for integral framerates before, but not for
drop-frame framerates. This now keeps precision better.
For all other framerates, check if it's close to a well-known framerate
and use that instead.

Via the MPEG-4 Part 3 spec we can support the other layers too.
Also correct the samples per frame calculation for MP3 if it's MPEG-2 or
MPEG-2.5.

Avoid writing a negative number as a large positive
integer in an edit list when the first_ts is smaller
than the first_dts - which can happen when the first
packet received has a PTS but no DTS.

10 FourCCs generated with GST_MAKE_FOURCC() in gstqtmux.c and atoms.c
already exist in fourcc.h. Don't duplicate these and use them directly.
Plus moving 6 to fourcc.h, to centralize them all.
Negotiation to audio/x-raw,format=S8 was not possible because S8 does
not have a bit order so we ended up doing `if (!entry.fourcc) goto refuse_caps;`

The media start has nothing to do with the shift we have applied
but with the value of the first PTS. This is defined as:
Dt(0) = 0
Ct(0) = Dt(0) + CTTS(0)
So the media start is always the first CTTS.

Buffers need not to start at running-time 0 so the last_dts needs
to be the value of the first buffer's dts as it is used to compute
the duration of the buffers. If it was left at 0 the first buffer
would have a larger duration when it shouldn't
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=751361
We shift DTS forward to avoid negative timestamps which cannot be
represented with version 0 of the CTTS table. To stick with that
version (backward compatibility), the spec recommend using an
edit list entry to move back the presentation time to where it
should be.

Adds AC-3 muxing support. It is defined for mp4 and 3gp formats.
One extra feature that was added was the ability to add extension
atoms after set_caps as the AC-3 extension atom needs some data
that has to be extracted from the stream itself and is not
present on caps.
Only update the moov header into the caps if it's the finalised
moov at EOS time. Avoids posting a bogus moov at startup and
repeated updates in robust-recording mode
Implement a robust recording mode, where the output
file is always in a playable state, seeking and rewriting
the moov header at a configurable interval. Rewriting
moov is done using reserved space at the start of
the file, and a ping-pong strategy where the moov
is replaced atomically so it's never invalid.
Track when tags have actually changed, and don't write them into
the moov unless they've changed. Clear any existing tags when
re-writing them, so we can do progressive moov updating in robust
recording mode.
Write placeholder mdat as a free atom plus a 32-bit mdat
with '0' size, which means "rest of the file" in the spec.
Re-write it later to a full 64-bit extended size atom if needed.
Correctly update any edit lists each time the moov is recalculated,
updating existing table entries if they already exist instead of just
adding new ones.
We always write the CTTS in qtmux. Ideally we only want to do that
for streams that need DTS, it should be present on the track information
rather than be decided based on each buffer
As qt uses durations, it doesn't matter, only the difference
between consecutive buffers is important. Also, collectpads
already replaces PTS/DTS with the running times for them.
Instead of checking various state variables around the muxer,
track the current muxing mode in a single 'mux_mode' enum.
Add some implementation notes about the different mux modes
When not in fast-start or fragmented mode, we need to be able
to rewrite the size of the mdat atom, or else the output just
won't be playable - the mdat placeholder with size == 0 will
cover the rest of the file, including any moov atom we write out.

Tags received via events, when marked as stream tags, will
be stored on that stream's trak atom instead of being stored
in the main tags atom. This allows the resulting file to have
global and stream tags stored.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692473
Refactor the functions that were bound to the 'moov' atom to
directly pass the desired 'udta' that should receive the tags.
This allows the tags to be written to 'udta' at the 'moov' or
the 'trak' level, creating tags that are for the container or
for a stream only.

Actually copy the codec data instead of copying nothing
and then bombing out because there's no data.
