The framerate should only be replaced (and corrected for alternating field)
when it is parsed from the bitstream. Otherwise, the upstream framerate
from caps should be trusted and assumed correct.

When using qtdemux in a pipeline that should only work as a pure demuxer (not
for actual playback), qtdemux shouldn't emit new GstSegments to correct
the start time (jump to the future) to ensure that the user experiences no
playback delay. By doing so, it's generating the wrong segments when an append
of data from the past happens. When that happens, downstream elements such as
parsers (eg: aacparse) may clip those buffers laying before the GstSegment and
create problems on the GStreamer client app (eg: WebKit).
Getting buffers clipped out because of the wrong GstSegments started becoming
a problen when this commit was introduced:
ab6e49e9cc audioparsers: add back segment clipping to parsers that have lost it
This clipping makes test DASH shaka 35 from MVT tests[1] to fail in
WebKitGTK/WPE (at least) and can potentially cause a number of other problems
in the WebKit Media Source Extensions (MSE) code.
Note that this new behaviour of not emitting new GstSegments only makes sense
when qtdemux is being used as a pure demuxer and not as part of a regular
pipeline. This is why the variant field has been added. When equal to
VARIANT_MSE_BYTESTREAM, it will make qtdemux behave differently in push mode,
taking decisions that meet the expectations for an MSE-like processing mode.
This kind of tweaks have been done in the past for MSS streams, for instance.
That code has been refactored to use VARIANT_MSS_FRAGMENTED now, instead of
its own dedicated boolean flag.

...who suggested to use "variant: mse-bytestream" in the caps to identify that
mode, as proposed in her unmerged patch:

Starting with Meson 0.62, meson automatically populates the variables
list in the pkgconfig file if you reference builtin directories in the
pkgconfig file (whether via a custom pkgconfig variable or elsewhere).
We need this, because ${prefix}/libexec is a hard-coded value which is
incorrect on, for example, Debian.
Bump requirement to 0.62, and remove version compares that retained
support for older Meson versions.

This reverts commit 652773de36 and
modifies it to rename the caps field name to coded-picture-structure.
It was previously removed because it confuses the decoder and we didn't
have a valid use case for including it in the encoded caps at this
stage. We now do have such a use case but still don't want to confuse
the decoder, so the field is renamed.
However, it is still not accurate without looking at the SEI picture
structure of each frame, so it was named coded-picture-structure. If its
value is "frame" it is most likely progressive, if it's "field" it is
most likely interlaced or mixed.

... in addition to all the other issues that were ignored for them
already.
At least the reverse playback test regularly times out, waiting for a
download to finish that has already finished successfully.

In order to allow "level-asymmetry-allowed" we now handle a new
"profile" field, which as the same semantics as the "profile" field in
H.264 stream so that we can force payloaded stream to have the right
format when using the `gst_sdp_media_get_caps_from_media` to set caps
filter after the payloader. This allows a simple negotiation in standard
RTP negotiation based on SDPs (like webrtc) for that particular case,
closely respecting the specs.

For monorepo build and ugly/bad, for advanced feature
option API like get_option('xyz').required(..) which
we use in combination with the 'gpl' option.
For rest of modules for consistency (people will likely
use newer features based on the top-level requirement).
