This reduces the complexity of having a custom buffer pool, as
we don't really need it. We only need the custom allocation part.
And since the wl_buffer is no longer saved in a GstMeta, we can
create it and add it on the buffers in the sink's render()
function, which removes the reference cycle caused by the pool
holding a reference to the display and also allows more generic
scenarios (the allocator being used in another pool, or buffers
being allocated without a pool [if anything stupid does that]).
This commit also simplifies the propose_allocation() function,
which doesn't really need to do all these complicated checks,
since there is always a correct buffer pool available, created
in set_caps().
The other side effect of this commit is that a new wl_shm_pool
is now created for every GstMemory, which means that we use
as much shm memory as we actually need and no more. Previously,
the created wl_shm_pool would allocate space for 15 buffers, no
matter if they were being used or not.
This also removes the GstWlMeta and adds a wrapper class for wl_buffer
which is saved in the GstBuffer qdata instead of being a GstMeta.
The motivation behind this is mainly to allow attaching wl_buffers on
GstBuffers that have not been allocated inside the GstWaylandBufferPool,
so that if for example an upstream element is sending us a buffer
from a different pool, which however does not need to be copied
to a buffer from our pool because it may be a hardware buffer
(hello dmabuf!), we can create a wl_buffer directly from it and first,
attach it on it so that we don't have to re-create a wl_buffer every
time the same GstBuffer arrives and second, force the whole mechanism
for keeping the buffer out of the pool until there is a wl_buffer::release
on that foreign GstBuffer.
Header will be read each and everytime parse function will be called
which is not necessary since until we have complete data,
we need not parse the header again.

In gst_hls_demux_get_next_fragment() the next fragment URI gets
stored in next_fragment_uri, but the gst_hls_demux_updates_loop()
can at any time update the playlist, rendering this string invalid.
Therefore, any data (like key, iv, URIs) that is taken from a
GstM3U8Client needs to be copied. In addition, accessing the
internals of a GstM3U8Client requires locking.

As openh264 has no way to attach any IDs to input frames that we then get on
the output frames, we have to assume that the input has valid PTS. We just
take the frame with the oldest PTS, and if there is no PTS information we take
the one with the oldest DTS.
