Add a hold off when the clock calibration suddenly loses synch,
as it may be a glitch, but also make sure we update if it stays
desynched for more than a few seconds
Add the minimum-update-interval property to the clock, with a default
of 50ms and don't send polling requests faster than that. That helps to
ensure we spread the initial observations out a little - startup takes
a little longer, but tracking is more stable.
Move the discont skew limiting code inside an if statement, so that
it's only done when the linear regression succeeds and the clock
parameters might actually change.
Allow setting a GstBus on the network clock client
via a new 'bus' object property. If a bus is set, the
clock will output an element message containing statistics
about new clock observations and the clock correlation.
When the local clock is synchronised with the remote, limit the
maximum jump in the clock at any point to be one average RTT to
the server. Also, publish in the bus message whether we are
synched with the remote or not.
They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.
Fix a typo in a doc string - the property is round-trip-limit, not
roundtrip-limit.
Remove a bogus GST_WARNING that can print an uninitialised variable
and is redundant anyway.
Sometimes, packets might take a very long time to return. Such packets
usually are way too late and destabilize the regression with their
obsolete data. On Wi-Fi, round-trips of over 7 seconds have been observed.
If the limit is set to a nonzero value, packets with a round-trip period
larger than the limit are ignored.

Keep a rolling average of the round trip time for network clock
observations, favouring shorter round trips as being more accurate.
Don't pass any clock observation to the clock slaving if it has a
round-trip time greater than 2 times the average.
Actual shifts in the network topology will be noticed after some
time, as the rolling average incorporates the new round trip times.
Even though this parameter is not used, it should be const to fit in with the
coding standards for other similar parameters. Client code already passes in
const strings under the expectation that they won’t be modified.

No need to use a custom main context and custom timeout sources,
just use g_socket_condition_timed_wait() instead, which was added
for exactly this case.
Also seems to help with the unit test deadlocking with glib 2.33.x

fraction.
(gst_clock_adjust_unlocked): Adjust using uint64_scale and the

obsolete.

Whoops, check the right fd. Also add some debugging.
(gst_net_client_clock_observe_times): Adjust for int64 offset.
(do_linear_regression): Add a crapload of debugging. Subtract off
the minimum values from the input series to discard unneeded bits.
Use only int arithmetic. There is still double arithmetic when
calculating the intercept that needs fixing. Return boolean to
indicate success; FALSE would mean the domain or range is too
great. Still needs fixes.
