Which we had to add because GLib didn't have it
back in the day. Port everything to plain old
G_TYPE_DATE, which is also a boxed type. Ideally
we'd just use GDateTime for everything, but it
doesn't support not setting some of the fields
unfortuntely (which would be very useful for
tag handling in general, if we could express
2012-01 for example).

This fixes caps operations when different elements advertise some
of their caps' properties differently (eg, for audio channels, either
a range from 1 to 2, or a list of 1 and 2).

When we do not care about the actual resulting set,
but only whether it is empty of not, we can skip a fair bit
of GValue juggling.
Add a function that does so, since we cannot just pass NULL
to the existing API as it may be part of the API contract.

Make a new method to allocate a buffer + memory that takes the allocator and the
alignment as parameters. Provide a macro for the old method but prefer to use
the new method to encourage plugins to negotiate the allocator properly.
Previously this was only done in the is_subset() check but
having it only there brings us into definition-hell where
"1" and "{1}" are subset of each other but not equal.
Fix freeing of partially-inited list value when both values
passed are equal and we want to return a single non-list
value as result. Fixes unit test. Also fix up docs a bit.

And use it for the fraction comparisons in gstvalue.c instead
of using comparisons by first converting the fractions to double.
Should fix bug #628174.
API: gst_util_fraction_compare()
This is not really necessary here because everything is
initialized from gst_init() already but using G_DEFINE_TYPE()
removes some copy&paste boilerplate code.
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.

Previous code treated "1/1yourmom" the same as "1/1" and "1wimsmom" the
same as "1". Now the code is stricter and will fail to convert a
fraction when followed by garbage text.
gst_value_list_size and gst_value_list_get_value will do a series of
extra checks due to being public methods.
When we use them from within gstvalue.c we can directly use them without
the extra checks.
