We need to parse the WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE structure, figure out what
positions the channels have (if they are positional), and reorder them
as necessary.

There is no fixed limitation for the number of devices on the
decklink API side according to BlackMagic. Many PC motherboards
are able support 6 decklink cards each with up to 8 inputs so
a limit of 16 might well be too low.

Both the source and the sink elements were broken in a number of ways:
* prepare() was assuming that the format was always S16LE 2ch 44.1KHz.
We now probe the preferred format with GetMixFormat().
* Device initialization was done with the wrong buffer size
(buffer_time is in microseconds, not nanoseconds).
* sink_write() and src_read() were just plain wrong and would never
write or read anything useful.
* Some functions in prepare() were always returning FALSE which meant
trying to use the elements would *always* fail.
* get_caps() and delay() were not implemented at all.
TODO: support for >2 channels
TODO: pro-audio low-latency
TODO: SPDIF and other encoded passthroughs
Three new properties are now implemented: role, mute, and device.
* 'role' designates the stream role of the initialized device, see:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd370842(v=vs.85).aspx
* 'device' is a system-wide GUIDesque string for a specific device.
* 'mute' is a sink property and simply mutes it.
On my Windows 8.1 system, the lowest latency that works is:
wasapisrc buffer-time=20000
wasapisink buffer-time=10000
aka, 20ms and 10ms respectively. These values are close to the lowest
possible with the IAudioClient interface. Further improvements require
porting to IAudioClient2 or IAudioClient3.

Sometimes we might get an audio packet without a corresponding video
frame. In these cases, the stream and hardware reference timestamps
would be missing, because they're called on the video frame. Instead of
potentially breaking stuff downstream that might depend on these, we now
extrapolate them.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792042
When we receive a video or audio buffer, we calculate the next stream
time based on the current stream time + buffer duration. If the next
buffer's stream time is after that, we issue a warning.
This happens because the stream time incoming from Decklink should be
really constant and without gaps. If there is a gap, it means that
something went wrong, e.g. the internal buffer pool is empty (too many
buffers queued up downstream).

The correct behaviour of anything stuck in the ->render() function
between ->unlock() and ->unlock_stop() is to call
gst_base_sink_wait_preroll() and only return an error if this returns an
error, otherwise, it must continue where it left off!

Not only if the video sink is set to PLAYING so far. Also give more
useful debug output about why we don't start, and don't start if already
started.
Also refactor the function to early-return instead of having a huge
if-else block over the whole function.

The Decklink and GstAudioBaseSink APIs don't fit very well together,
which causes various problems due to inaccuracies in the clock
calculations and the actual ringbuffer and GStreamer's copy getting of
sync.
Problems are audio drop-outs and A/V sync getting wrong after
pausing/seeking.

When we cannot scale, we need to enforce the pixel aspect ratio.
This was partly implemented in the previous patch. Doing this
simplify some of the code.

1. Similar to 880f3d8, don't consider not getting an output buffer as
an error during flushing. I've seen the following sometimes when
encoding:
W GStreamer+amcvideoenc: java.lang.IllegalStateException
W GStreamer+amcvideoenc: at android.media.MediaCodec.getBuffer(Native Method)
W GStreamer+amcvideoenc: at android.media.MediaCodec.getOutputBuffer(MediaCodec.java:2886)
2. For amcvideodec/enc, call _find_nearest_frame (which grabs a fresh
reference on a GstVideoCodecFrame) after we have an output buffer,
so as to not leak the reference, in case getting an output buffer
fails.
Otherwise, if we get an error grabbing the output buffer, we leak
the reference to the frame. This can cause issues with a
v4l2bufferpool feeding the encoder not being able to clean itself
up properly due to buffers still being marked as in-use.

This is to be used with gst_video_overlay_set_render_rectangle()
so the application can calculate a rectangle that fits inside
the display. The property changes are notify in a way that you
can watch either notify::display-width or notify::display-height
and both will be up-to-data when this is called back. Before the
element is started, the size will be 0x0.

Implement videooverlay interface in kmssink, divided into two cases:
when driver supports scale, then we do refresh in show_frame(); if
not, send a reconfigure event to upstream and re-negotiate, using the
new size.
