If EOS or ERROR happens before the download loop thread has reached its
g_cond_wait() call, then the g_cond_signal doesn't have any effect and
the download loop thread stucks later.

Refactor mssdemux to remove uridownloader to use an internal
source element which reduces startup latency and provides smaller
buffers for better buffering management downstream
As streams now flow independently, the GstSegment needs to be put
on each stream so they can track the position of each one correctly
instead of being mixed in a single segment
Download and push from the same task, makes code a lot simpler
to maintain. Also pushing from separate threads avoids deadlocking
when gst_pad_push blocks due to downstream queues being full
When a stream gets a not-linked return, it will be marked as so and
won't download any more new fragments until a reconfigure event
is received. This will make mssdemux expose all pads, but only download
fragments for the streams that are actually being used.
Relying on the pads being linked/unlinked isn't enough in this scenario
as there might be an input-selector downstream that is actually discarding
buffers for a given linked pad.
When streams are switching, the old active stream can be blocked because
input-selector will block not-linked streams. In case the mssdemux's
stream loop is blocked pushing a buffer to a full queue downstream it will
never unblock as the queue will not drain (input-selector is blocking).
In this scenario, stream switching will deadlock as input-selector is
waiting for the newly active stream data and the stream_loop that would
push this data is blocked waiting for input-selector.
To solve this issue, whenever an stream is reactivated on a reconfigure
it will enter into the 'catch up mode', in this mode it can push buffers
from its download thread until it reaches the currrent GstSegment's position.
This works because this timestamp will always be behind or equal to the maximum
timestamp pushed for all streams, after pushing data for this timestamp,
the stream will go back to default and be pushed sequentially from the main
streaming thread. By this time, the input-selector should have already
released the thread.

Live streams force the demuxer to keep reloading the Manifest from
time to time, as the new fragments are being added as they are recorded.
The demuxer should also try to keep up and detect when it had to skip
fragments, marking the discont flag when that happens.
Curiously, the spec doesn't seem to mention when/how a live stream is supposed
to end, so keep trying downloads until the demuxer errors out.
Use pad tasks to download data and an extra task that gets the earlier
buffer (with the smallest timestamp) and pushes on the corresponding
pad.
This prevents that the audio stream rushes ahead on buffers as its
fragments should be smaller
When connection-speed changes, signal that we might need a bitrate
switch. During the switch, a new pad group is added and the old one
is drained and removed.
New pads also need to push newsegments before starting to stream
This speed limits the maximum bitrate of streams. Currently it
is only read when starting the pipeline, but it should be used
for switching bitrates during playback to adapt to network
changes.
Adds basic handling for seek in time events. Needs to cooperate
with the downstream qtdemux so that it forwards the seeks and
the corresponding newsegments
Use shorter names for the MSS manifest helper structure and functions.
Also continues the implementation of the stream fetching and pushing loop.
Now it uses the base url correctly and already fetches and pushes the fragments
downstream
