Apply fix from libgstbase to all core libs now that we know that it
works. Should fix problems with g-ir-scanner using the wrong
(ie. system) libgstreamer, leading to linking errors such as
undefined reference to `gst_clock_single_shot_id_reinit'.

So run-time bindings can introspect the names correctly (we abuse this
field as description field only in elements, not for public API
(where the description belongs into the gtk-doc chunk).

Sets up a GST_PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable for use in Makefile.am
(avoids trailing ':' in PKG_CONFIG_PATH used). A useful side
effect of this is also that the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment
is now logged in the configure output.
The logic in that function is broken. Various NULL-checking bandaids for
guaranteed non-NULL variables didn't even help there.
This patch updates the function to check if a previous item exists
before fetching it instead of after. This makes all other tests
unnecessary.
In particular, it makes the check for an empty list unnecessary, because
for empty lists the only iter is the begin iter (and the end iter) and
so the new check catches that case.

Point g-ir-scanner to the .la file of our library, which hopefully
makes it find the right dependencies in all cases (ie. our locally
built libgstreamer and not the system-installed one). This is also
how it's done in Gtk+ and how it's documented in the wiki, see
http://live.gnome.org/GObjectIntrospection/AutotoolsIntegration
Based on patches by Vincent Untz and Alan Knowles.
Fixes#603710.
Our own pkgconfig directory should come first, so that pkg-config uses
the in-tree libgstreamer and not some external one when --pkg=gstreamer-0.10
is passed to g-ir-scanner.
See #603710.
This changes some APIs in compatible ways:
- Some functions now take "const char *" arguments, not "char *"
- Some structs now have "conts char *" members, not "char *"
The changes may cause warnings when compiling with the right warning
flags. You've been warned.
Also adds -Wwrite-strings as a warning flag in configure.ac.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=611692
Adds that warning to configure.ac
Includes a tiny change of the GST_BOILERPLATE_FULL() macro:
The get_type() function is no longer declared before being defined.

This makes it >10x faster if more than a single value is requested
by not searching in the GSequence for every value and converting
the value from GValue to the real value type.
This avoids:
* triple-checking for the GType when type-checking is enabled (see #597260)
* Avoids going through an expensive no-argument checking which landed in
glib-2.22
* Avoids going through 2 extrac functions (g_object_new -> g_object_new_valist)
Use g_slide instead of nomal g_new, Also don't init struct with 0 as we need to
init it anyway with the real values.
Also join the 3 flags checks into one.
Fix a warning that occurs when the self->priv->values is NULL and
the code tries to retrieve an iterator from it. The warning was showing
up in the checks for the volume element.
