Lots of modifications to the plugin system.

plugin contents.
- changed the plugin API, everyhting is now added with
gst_plugin_add_feature

in at plugin load.
- mime types like "video/raw image/raw" are gone for now.
- lots of plugin updates (style and API changes)
- tested with an without registry.
- updates to various tools.

Test this one, Almost everything has changed :-)
Original commit message from CVS:
Removed the GST_CONFIG_DIR from config.h and made a -D CFLAG for it
instead so that we can do full expansion on the sysconfdir.
Original commit message from CVS:
Externalized the plugin information in /etc/gstreamer/reg.xml
- no need to do a plugin_load_all()
- plugins are loaded when needed
- typedetect functions are loaded when needed (still buggy)
- no need to check for the existance of the plugin in the codecs
- added gstreamer-register to create the reg.xml file
- renamed launch to gstreamer-launch
- plugins need to register the typefactory they provide
modified the plugins to meet the new design
modified the plugins to correctly set their pad types
autoplugging can be done without loading the plugins now
