This makes gst_parse_bin_from_description() return an element instead of
a bin if there's only one element. Also changed gstparse.c to use this,
so gst-launch won't create superfluous bins.

All streams that have the same group id are supposed to be played
together, i.e. all streams inside a container file should have the
same group id but different stream ids. The group id should change
each time the stream is started, resulting in different group ids
each time a file is played for example.
This reverts commit 1a1a9e143f.
This breaks the pipelines/tagschecking unit test for some reason
(fakesrc ! capsfilter ! qtmux linking fails now). It might be
a bug in the unit test of course, but someone will need to
investigate this. Reverting for now.

motivation comes from: /* FIXME: why not gst_pad_get_pad_template (pad); */
this code path is quite nicer, we now only revert to creating the template
if gst_pad_get_pad_template fails.
with this fork, we gain a non-allocation of GstCaps *templcaps
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692508
We usually first create the stream_id for the stream_start event and then add
the pad to the element. This means that this functions should work when there
are no pads on the element yet.
In the proxy_query_caps function, also filter against the filter in the query.
We don't need to filter against the filter in the query anymore in the default
caps query function because we already did this in the proxy_query_caps.
These changes are to clean up syntax issues such as missing colons,
missing spaces, etc., and minor issues such as argument names in
headers not matching the implementation and/or documentation.
Add gst_buffer_append() which appends the memory blocks from one buffer to
another. Remove the old inefficient _merge() and _join() methods which forced a
premature memcpy in most cases.
Remove the _is_span() and _span() methods they are not needed anymore now that
we can _append(). Merging and spanning will be delayed until mapping or maybe
not at all when the element can deal with the different memory blocks.
Rework some caps operations so they don't rely on writable caps but instead take
ownership of the input caps and do _make_writable() only when needed.
Remove some const from caps functions, it does not make much sense for
refcounted objects and does not allow us to return a refcount to the const input
caps.
Rework the base classes fixate vmethods to not operate on the caps in-place.
All this saves us around 30% of caps and structure copy and new operations.
fix the proxy functions for query_accept_caps and query_caps to use the pad
forward helper functions which correctly forwards on the internally linked pads.
Remove the getcaps function on the pad and use the CAPS query for
the same effect.
Add PROXY_CAPS to the pad flags. This instructs the default caps event and query
handlers to pass on the CAPS related queries and events. This simplifies a lot
of elements that passtrough caps negotiation.
Make two utility functions to proxy caps queries and aggregate the result. Needs
to use the pad forward function instead later.
Make the _query_peer_ utility functions use the gst_pad_peer_query() function to
make sure the probes are emited properly.
The idea was originally that if one passed &dest_fmt with
dest_fmt=GST_FORMAT_DEFAULT, then the code answering the query
could change dest_fmt to the actual default format used. However,
in more than half a decade of GStreamer 0.10 no piece of code in
GStreamer has ever used that feature, nor are there that many
users of this API that actually check whether the format returned
is the original format passed before using the values returned.
Also, it's just annoying-to-use API in its own right.
For all these reasons, make it so that the destination format is
passed directly and can't be changed by the element queried.
Don't mix messages and pads and tags.
Make the sink post tag messages when a tag event is received.
Since tags are sticky on pads now, they can be retrieved from there
when needed.
See #651514 for details. It's apparently impossible to write code
that avoids both type punning warnings with old g_atomic headers and
assertions in the new. Thus, macros and a version check.
This reverts commit cf4fbc005c.
This change did not improve the situation for bindings because
queries are usually created, then directly passed to a function
and not stored elsewhere, and the writability problem with
miniobjects usually happens with buffers or caps instead.
GST_DISABLE_DEPRECATED should only affect visibility of declarations in headers,
not actually remove symbols. See GitDeveloperGuidelines and DeprecatingAPI
pages in wiki.

Add new functions to clarify how the caps are compared to the template caps of
the element factory. Improve the docs to point out the difference.
Deprecate: gst_element_factory_can_{src|sink}_caps
API: add gst_element_factory_can_{src|sink}_{any|all}_capps
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402141
We need to ensure we call gst_pad_check_link() with the two pads in the correct
order. The order depends on wheter we iterate src or sink pads.

The new request_new_pad_full vmethod provides an additional caps field,
which allows elements to take better decision process.
Also, add a gst_element_request_pad() function to allow developers to be
able to specify which pad template they want a pad of.
Convert gstutils to use that new method instead of the old one when more
efficient.
This is useful for being able to request pads in a more flexible way,
especially when the element can provide pads whose caps depend on
runtime configuration and therefore can't provide pre-registered
pad templates.
