Sources that can internally handle buffering shouldn't have yet-another
buffering element after it. This can be simply detected by checking if it can
answer a TIME BUFFERING query just after creation.
If that is the case, we can expose the element source pads directly

The default query handler would go through typefind, which by default accepts
any CAPS. But once configured, parsebin can't reconfigure itself, it should
therefore pass through the ACCEPT_CAPS query to the first element after
typefind (if any).

Don't reconfigure outputs when the select-streams
event is sent from the app, as the selection may
not take effect for some time. Instead, wait
for the pipeline to confirm the new set of
selected streams when it sends the message.

If we previously had subtitles coming in, the video
may be chained through a text overlay block. Before,
the code would end up trying to link pads that were
already linked and video would not get reconnected
properly.
To fix that, make sure that the candidate
pads are actually unlinked first. If a textoverlay
is present and no longer needed, it will be cleaned
up later in the reconfiguration sequence.

Requesting a new pad can start a reconfiguration cycle, where
playsink will block all input pads and wait for data on them
before doing internal reconfiguration. If a pad is released,
that reconfiguration might never trigger because it's now waiting
for a pad that doesn't exist any more.
In that case, complete the reconfiguration on pad release.

Fix a small race where a group can receive stream-start
and post a pending buffering message just as another
thread posts a different buffering message, causing them
to be received by the application out of order. In the
worst case, this leads the application receiving a
stale 99% buffering message and going back to buffering
right after the 100% buffering message.

The earlier size of 2 MB was set back in 2009, it doesn't
seem unreasonable to raise it to 8 MB these days. The use
case at hand is matroskademux containing both a video stream
with a very low amount of compression but no decoding latency,
and a H265 stream.

There's a potential race condition with this sort of pipelines on
certain systems (depends on the processing load):
GST_DEBUG_DUMP_DOT_DIR=/tmp \
gst-launch-1.0 uridecodebin3 uri=file://stream.mp4 ! glupload ! \
glimagesink --gst-debug=*:4
Right after the pipeline passes from PAUSED to READY, bin_to_dot_file
dumps uridecodebin3 properties, but current uri and suburi might be
already freed, causing a potential use-after-freed.
This patch makes NULL the current item right after all the play items
are freed.

If the pad does not have a current caps, get_pad() returns the query
caps which can be ANY. In such case the caps does not have any structure
resulting in a critical warning when calling gst_caps_get_structure().

In the encoded streams we might not have all the information about the
raw video stream, but when reencoding they end up being specified, even
if those are default values.
As vp8 decoders always output frames in some YUV color space we can
ensure that when upstream doesn't specify any value in its caps we
use the default one which is what we end up doing when decoding/reencoding
anyway, so this way downstream (matroskamux in that case) doesn't need
to be able to renegotiate (which it doesn't).

Retrieving the pad template caps from a ghost pad returns ANY which when
merged with any other caps will return ANY. ANY is not very specific
and may cause suboptimal code paths in e.g. decoders that assume the
lowest common denominator when presented with ANY caps.
Fixes negotiating dma-buf with vaapidecodebin between glupload in the
video sink element.

If the USE_PLAYBIN3=1 env var is set, we want to replace
playbin with playbin3, but separate to that, we always
want to register the 'playbin3' element so that applications
which explicitly use playbin3 work regardless of the env var.
This fixes `USE_PLAYBIN3=1 gst-validate-launcher`, for example.

Change locking around group deactivation to avoid deadlocks
when shutting down exactly as a buffering message arrives.
The PLAYBIN3_LOCK now protects the active field of the
source group. Everything else is still protected by the
source-group-lock.
Also properly protect group switching operations with
the PLAYBIN3_LOCK everywhere.
