Allows the subclass to completely override the chosen src caps.
This is needed as videoaggregator generally has no idea exactly
what operation is being performed.
- Adds a fixate_caps vfunc for fixation
- Merges gst_video_aggregator_update_converters() into
gst_videoaggregator_update_src_caps() as we need some of its info
for proper caps handling.
- Pass the downstream caps to the update_caps vfunc

We have to queue buffers based on their running time, not based on
the segment position.
Also return running time from GstAggregator::get_next_time() instead of
a segment position, as required by the API.
Also only update the segment position after we pushed a buffer, otherwise
we're going to push down a segment event with the next position already.

Only accept alpha if downstream has alpha as well. It could
theoretically accept alpha unconditionally if blending is
properly implemented for handle it but at the moment this
is a missing feature.
Improves the caps query by also comparing with the template
caps to filter by what the subclass supports.

Instead of checking for the gstreamer-video-1.0 package is installed,
just assume it is since we already check for the -base dependency.
With this replace the GST_VIDEO_* variables in makefiles and directly
link with libgstvideo.

Before aggregator based elements always started at running time 0,
now it's possible to select the first input buffer running time or
explicitly set a start-time value.

The problem here was that after removing the formats and
all the things we could convert, we then intersected these
caps with the template caps.
Hence if a subclass offered permissive sink templates
(eg all the possible formats videoconvert handles), but only
one output format, then at negotiation time getcaps returned
caps with the format restricted to that format, even though
we do handle conversion.

When set, it causes videoaggregator to repeatedly aggregate the last buffer on
an EOS pad instead of skipping it and outputting silence. This is useful, for
instance, while playing back files seamless one after the other, to avoid
videoaggregator ever outputting silence (the checkerboard pattern).
It is to be noted that if all the pads on videoaggregator have this property set
on them, the mixer will never forward EOS downstream for obvious reasons. Hence,
at least one pad with 'ignore-eos' set to FALSE must send EOS to the mixer
before it will be forwarded downstream.

Add preserve_update_caps_result boolean on the class to allow
sub-classes to disable videoaggregator removing sizes and framerate
from the update_caps() return result.
A return value of GST_FLOW_OK with a NULL buffer from get_output_buffer()
means the sub-class doesn't want to produce an output buffer, so
skip it.
If gst_videoaggregator_do_aggregate() generates an error, make sure
to propagate it - don't just ignore and discard the error by
over-writing it with the gst_pad_push() result.
This would've also triggered if for some reason the segment was updated
in such a way that PTS went backwards, but the running time increased. Like
what happens when non-flushing seeks are done.
We're doing a proper buffer-from-the-past check a few lines below based on the
running time, which is the only time we should care about here.
And keep on querying upstream until we get a reply.
Also, the _get_latency_unlocked() method required being calld
with a private lock, so removed the _unlocked() variant from the API.
And it now returns GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE when the element is not live as
we think that 0 upstream latency is possible.

In case the original caps were missing some optional fields like
interlace-mode. We assume default values for those everywhere,
but they can still cause negotiation to fail if a downstream element
expects the field to be there and at a specific value.
If the src framerate and videoaggreator's output framerate were
different, then we were taking every single buffer that had duration=-1
as it came in regardless of the buffer's start time. This caused the src
to possibly run at a different speed to the output frames.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744096
This can happen if this is a live pipeline and no source produced any buffer
and sent no caps until an output buffer should've been produced according to the
latency.
This fix is similar in spirit to commit be7034d1 by Sebastian for audiomixer.
Unset out buffer in clip function when we unref the buffer to be
clipped, otherwise aggregator will continue to use the already-
freed buffer. Fixes crash when buffers without timestamps are
being fed to aggregator. Partly because aggregator ignores the
error flow return.
