Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)
* Seriously fast configure and building on embedded
... and many more. For more details see:

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
The heuristic to choose between packetise or not was changed to use the
segment format. The problem is that this change is reading the segment
during the caps event handling. The segment event will only be sent
after. That prevented the decoder to go in packetize mode, and avoid
useless parsing.

packetized mode is being set when framerate is being set
which is not correct. Changing the same by checking the
input segement format. If input segment is in TIME it is
Packetized, and if it is in BYTES it is not.
