TLDR: Make `gst_set_threshold_from_string ("", TRUE)` reset *all*
threshold settings, including those set by previous invocations of
`gst_debug_set_threshold_from_string`.
The docs say:
@reset: %TRUE to clear all previously-set debug levels before setting
new thresholds
What actually happens is it sets the default threshold to `ERROR`,
leaves the patterns in place and calls
`gst_debug_category_reset_threshold` on each category.
In effect, any category that is matched by a pattern gets reset to that
threshold if the app changed it by directly invoking
`gst_debug_category_set_threshold`. All other categories are reset to
`ERROR`.
In my opinion this parameter currently has little value, as the same
effect can be achieved by including `ERROR` (without a pattern) in the
string, as in `"foo*:WARNING,*bar:INFO,ERROR"`.
What I actually expect it to do is reset *all* threshold settings,
including those set by previous invocations of
`gst_debug_set_threshold_from_string`, starting off with a clean slate
for the patterns provided with the call.
Otherwise there is no API to do this, besides:
- Painfully removing patterns one-by-one via
`gst_debug_unset_threshold_for_name` *if* you know what the patterns
are.
- Adding a `*:FOO` pattern to affect all categories, which makes the
default threshold useless and practically leaks all the old
patterns.
In my opinion this also makes it fit better into the layers of threshold
config, which is:
1. Temporary:
- `gst_debug_category_set_threshold`
- `gst_debug_category_reset_threshold`
2. Patterns:
- `gst_debug_set_threshold_for_name`
- `gst_debug_unset_threshold_for_name`
- `gst_debug_set_threshold_from_string`
- `GST_DEBUG`
3. Default:
- `gst_debug_set_default_threshold`

The scenario is the following:
* Thread 1 is pushing an EOS event on a sinkpad
* Thread 2 is pushing a STREAM_START event on the same sinkpad before Thread 1
returns. Note : It starts pushing the event after Thread 1 took the object lock.
There is a potential race between:
* The moment Thread 1 sets the EOS flag once it has finished sending the
event (via store_sticky_event). When it does that it has both the STREAM and
OBJECT lock
* The moment Thread 2 sends the STREAM_START event (Which should release that
EOS status), but removing the EOS flag is only done while holding the OBJECT
lock and not the STREAM_LOCK, which means it could be re-set by Thread 1 before
it then checks again the EOS flag (without the STREAM lock taken).
The EOS flag unsetting by STREAM_START should be done with the STREAM lock
taken, otherwise it will be racy.

With non-serialized sticky events, such as GST_EVENT_INSTANT_RATE, we both want
to store the event (for later re-linking) *AND* push the event in a non-blocking
way.
We therefore must *not* propagate pending sticky events if the event is "sticky
or serialized" but only if it's "serialized"

When using the child proxy notation (child::property=value) it may
happen that the target child does not exist at the time of parsing
(i.e: decodebin creates the encoder according to the contents of the
stream). On this cases, we want to delay the setting of the property
to later, when new elements are added. Previous logic performed a
delayed set even if the target child was found but the property
was not found in it. This should be treated as a failure because,
unlike missing elements, properties should not appear dynamically.
By not failing, typos in property names may go unnoticed to the end
user.

The purpose of a deep buffer copy is to be able to release the source
buffer and all its dependencies. Attaching the parent buffer meta to
the newly created deep copy needlessly keeps holding a reference to the
parent buffer.
The issue this solves is the fact you need to allocate more
buffers, as you have free buffers being held for no reason. In the good
cases it will use more memory, in the bad case it will stall your
pipeline (since codecs often need a minimum number of buffers to
actually work).

- Update the docker image we use, starting using the standard one adding
`gtk4-doc` as required by rust plugins
- Update the plugins_doc_caches as required, some more plugins are built
with the new image
- Install ninja from pip as the version from F31 is too old
- Avoid buildings all GSreamer plugins when building the doc as it takes
time and resources for no good reason
- Stop linking to `GInstanceInitFunc` as it is not present in latest GLib
documentation, leading to warnings in hotdoc.

We are always building our printf implementation, even when
GST_DEBUG is disabled, since we are exposing api (gst_print*)
that's dependant on our printf behavior.
We don't need to keep __gst_info_fallback_vasprintf around anymore.

If read_one or write_one was called but the stream closed before it could
read/write a whole packet, read_one/write_one would hang indefinitely,
consuming 100% CPU. This commit fixes that by treating a short read/write
as an error.

Theoretically having elements in locked state should not have any effect
at all when the surrounding bin is doing state changes. However
previously a state change error of a locked element would cause the
bin's state change to also fail, which is clearly not intended.
State change failures of locked elements are to be handled by whoever
set the element to locked state. By always returning them here it is
impossible for the owner of the element to handle state change failures
gracefully without potentially affecting the whole pipeline's state
changes.
Non-failure returns are still returned as-is as the distinction between
ASYNC/NO_PREROLL/SUCCESS has big consequences on the state changes of
the bin and overall pipeline. Theoretically SUCCESS should also be
returned in all cases but I can't estimate the effects this would have
on the overall pipeline.

The parent refcount is of the *transformed* buffer, not the input
buffer.
Also update the docs to clarify that @transbuf is the transformed
buffer, and not the buffer on which a transformation is being
performed.
Due to this bug, modifying the structure of a meta that has been
copied to another buffer fails with:
gst_structure_set: assertion 'IS_MUTABLE (structure) || field == NULL' failed
Add a test for the same.

1.21.0.1 should not satisfy a check for 1.22.0.
If someone needs more control they should do a feature check for
the symbol in the headers or lib.

If compiled with -Dgstreamer:gst_debug=false and we have
GST_REMOVE_DISABLED defined we will get the following compiler error:
```
[...]/libgstreamer-1.0.so.0.2100.0.p/gst.c.o: in function `gst_deinit':
[...]/gst/gst.c:1258: undefined reference to `_priv_gst_debug_cleanup'
[...] hidden symbol `_priv_gst_debug_cleanup' isn't defined

Add the missing define guard to avoid this.

Previously it was only possible to request them with the exact template
name, e.g. 'src_%s', but not with "instantiated" names that would match
this template, e.g.'src_foo_bar'.
This is now possible and a test was added for this, in addition to
fixing a previously invalid test.
