This is an ad-hoc release that is almost identical to 0.10.34:
* work around GLib atomic ops API change
* don't use G_CONST_RETURN in public headers
* subparse: typefinding fixes for subtitles in non-UTF8 charsets
Highlights:
- support for 16-bit-per-component video formats
- playbin2 fixes and improvements for custom and non-raw sinks
- oggmux muxes based on running time now
- many other fixes and improvements
The GstTagXmpWriter interface is to be implemented on elements that
provide xmp serialization. It allows users to select which
xmp schemas should be used on serialization.
API: GstTagXmpWriter

There's no reason to make the marshaller public API. Don't install
pbutils-marshal.h header file and use prefix that makes sure the
symbol doesn't get exported.
This adds code to translate the profile_and_level indication from the
MPEG-4 video (ISO/IEC 14496-2) headers to a string profile/level. The
mappings are taken from the spec and Wireshark's code, and might need to
be expanded on.

This moves AAC profile detection to pbutils, and uses this in
typefindfunctions. This will also be used in qtdemux.

API: gst_codec_utils_aac_get_profile()
API: codec_utils_aac_caps_set_level_and_profile()
This allows us to add generic codec-specific functionality, like
extracting profile/level data from headers, without having to duplicate
code across demuxers and typefindfunctions.
As a starting point, this moves over AAC level extraction code from
typefindfunctions, so it can be reused in qtdemux, etc.

And deprecate the gulong versions. This is to support platforms
where sizeof(unsigned long) < sizeof(void *). Fixes#627565.
API: Add gst_x_overlay_set_window_handle()
API: Deprecate: gst_x_overlay_set_xwindow_id()
API: Add gst_x_overlay_got_window_handle()
API: Deprecate: gst_x_overlay_got_xwindow_id()
API: Add GstXOverlay::set_window_handle()
API: Deprecate: GstXOverlay::set_xwindow_id()
Adds mappings from:
GST_TAG_CAPTURING_EXPOSURE_PROGRAM -> ExposureProgram
GST_TAG_CAPTURING_EXPOSURE_MODE -> ExposureMode
GST_TAG_CAPTURING_SCENE_CAPTURE_TYPE -> SceneCaptureType
GST_TAG_CAPTURING_GAIN_ADJUSTMENT -> GainControl
GST_TAG_CAPTURING_WHITE_BALANCE -> WhiteBalance
GST_TAG_CAPTURING_CONTRAST -> Constrast
GST_TAG_CAPTURING_SATURATION -> Saturation
Also renames gst_tag_image_orientation_from_exif_value and
gst_tag_image_orientation_to_exif_value to remove the 'gst'
prefix and not including in the win32 defs.
Tests included.
So people can check what version of the gst-plugins-base libs they're
building against or linked against.
API: GST_PLUGINS_BASE_VERSION_MAJOR
API: GST_PLUGINS_BASE_VERSION_MINOR
API: GST_PLUGINS_BASE_VERSION_MICRO

API: gst_plugins_base_version()
API: gst_plugins_base_version_string()
Elements usually use their own instance as instance data but the
clock can have a longer lifetime than their elements and the clock
doesn't own a reference of the element.
Fixes bug #623807.
Adds exif helper lib functions to parse exif buffers from/to
taglists. Exif is tipically used in jpeg images, but it can
also be embedded into TIFF, AVI and WAV formats.
Adds a couple function to handle exif in tiff header structures, that is how
exif is embedded in jpeg and (obviously) in tiff.
API: gst_tag_list_to_exif_buffer
API: gst_tag_list_to_exif_buffer_with_tiff_header
API: gst_tag_list_from_exif_buffer
API: gst_tag_list_from_exif_buffer_with_tiff_header
Fixes#614872
Also add API markers to make life easier for the release manager:
API: gst_x_overlay_set_render_rectangle()
API: gst_video_parse_caps_color_matrix()
API: gst_video_parse_caps_chroma_site()
XMP metadata can be embedded in many media container formats. Implement own
parser and formatter that can be used to convert between an xpacket and a
GstTagList. Add unit tests.
Add some utility functions for language tags and ISO-639
codes. These are useful for both GUIs and elements. The
iso-codes package is used for language name translations
if available.
API: gst_tag_get_language_codes()
API: gst_tag_get_language_name()
API: gst_tag_get_language_code()
API: gst_tag_get_language_code_iso_639_1()
API: gst_tag_get_language_code_iso_639_2B()
