This allows set_caps to succeed if caps change in a way that
would not modify the format we're getting from the hardware.
Otherwise if not in NULL state, setting caps would fail
with EBUSY.
With this change, in some cases it's OK to go PLAYING->READY->PLAYING
rather than PLAYING->NULL->PLAYING to avoid a time-consuming close
and reopen of the device.
Fixes#621723
Fixes#621723 (partially)
set_caps can fail if the video device is running, in that case
setting its format leads to EBUSY.
If set_caps fails then we will not have set up the buffer pool
(it will be NULL) which leads to a crash when we try to pull
buffers. If we fail the negotiate on set_caps failure, then we
won't go to playing state and won't crash.
This is a small improvement. Of course, a nicer fix would
be to make set_caps work in the case where the format is
unchanged. If the format has changed, failing is
probably correct because we need to close the device
(go to NULL state) in order to set caps.
"Low" etc. are quality settings here (e.g. for the internal resampler).
Some day when we use GLib's i18n functions we might want to use
NC_() and g_dpgettext2() here instead of the comments.
Fixes#555967.
OSS4 supports per-stream volume control, so expose this using the right
API, so that playbin2 and applications like totem can make use of it
(instead of using a volume element for volume control).
Fixes#614305.
When iterating the formats table, we can just pass the whole
entry to our helper function, which avoids iterating the table
again to find the entry structure from the passed format id.
Also accept formats that are not natively supported by the
hardware, OSS4 can convert them internally. List the native
formats first in the caps though, to express our preference
for the native formats. We need this in order to support the
case properly where the audio hardware supports only e.g.
little endian PCM, but the host is big endian, since many
audio elements only support native endianness and make the
reasonable assumption that any audiosink will be able to
handle audio in native endianness.

Fixes#614317.
A side effect is that it passes -Wformat-nonliteral and doesn't read
invalid memory in some cases, like when the mixer track contains
a % sign or there is a number but not a known mixer name.
Code cleanups, general improvements, support for the
new mixer flags in latest gst-plugins-base.

Apparently mono sliders have the mono value repeated in the upper bits,
so mask those out when reading them. Probably makes the mixer applet
work properly in some more cases.
Instead of using BaseSrc default format GST_FORMAT_BYTES, send it in
GST_FORMAT_TIME.
