Pads are activated automatically when they are added if the element
state is >=PAUSED, so it's not necessary to activate them manually
anymore.
This patch removes manual pad activation from gstaggregator, gstconcat,
gstfunnel, and gstinputselector.

As the path to the gir file is passed to hotdoc.generate_doc() and
not the build target itself, meson doesn't know about the dependency.
In turn, as the CI doesn't build everything before building the
documentation target, some gir files might not exist, for instance
in the case of gst-rtsp-server, causing the output documentation to
be empty.
The error occurred silently because hotdoc accepts wildcards for
*-sources arguments, thus it won't warn about a missing gir file as
it is legitimate for glob matching to resolve to nothing.

gst_element_add_pad() is supposed to activate the pad if the element
state is >= PAUSED and the pad is not already active.
Unfortunately, before this patch, the activation was performed while the
element lock was still taken, which ended causing a deadlock in
gst_pad_start_task() as it attempted to post `stream-status` message in
the element, which also requires the element lock.
Elements could work around this bug by activating the pad manually
before adding it to the element.
This patch fixes the problem by performing pad activation only after the
element lock has been released.

Commit d3a66f9851 introduced a potential deadlock with two parallel release_pad
calls, where one could release the main multiqueue lock (qlock) while still
holding the reconf_lock and then calling other routines which in some conditions
may try to acquire qlock again. The second release_pad could already acquire the
qlock and then start waiting on reconf_lock, which may never be possible because
because the first one isn't releasing it until it can acquire qlock.
Fix it by holding reconf_lock for the whole durationg of qlock, making this
particular deadlock impossible.

On macOS, a Cocoa event loop is needed in the main thread to ensure
things like opening a GL window work correctly. In the past, this was
patched into glib via Cerbero, but that prevented us from updating it.
This workaround simply runs an NSApplication and then calls the
main function on a secondary thread, allowing GStreamer to correctly
display windows and/or system permission prompts, for example.

gst_plugin_load_by_name() assumed a plugin has a filename,

This allows providing unified and clearer debug logs for all the

When dealing with gapless input (i.e. streams with changing group-id in
GST_EVENT_STREAM_START), we need to take into account the elapsed
running-time (if applicable) in order to properly calculate levels and output
time. Without doing this all incoming data from future groups would be
considered as being "late" and would be consumed immediately.
This does **NOT** modify the actual segment and buffer times, and is only used
internally.

Use gst_debug_set_threshold_from_string's new reset behavior to undo
GST_DEBUG and ensure the logging tests have a known configuration.
`gst_debug_set_threshold_from_string ("LOG", TRUE)` has the same effect
as `gst_debug_set_threshold_from_string ("", TRUE)` followed by
`gst_debug_set_default_threshold (GST_LEVEL_LOG)`.
Don't bother remembering the default log level set when the test
started. It will get reset by the next test, anyway.

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.

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).

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.

And also don't assert that there are no buffers queued up when handling
an EOS event. The pad's streaming thread might've already received a new
stream-start event and queued up a buffer in the meantime.
This still leaves a race condition where the srcpad task sees all pads
in EOS state and finishes the stream, while shortly afterwards a pad
might receive a stream-start event again, but this doesn't seem to be
solveable with the current aggregator design.

Various elements are assuming that the pointer matches a pad template
they know about, and also randomly created pad templates might be
missing some important information that is necessary to create a valid
pad.
For example, creating a new pad template for audiomixer's sinkpad
without providing the correct GType would cause audiomixer to create a
GstAggregatorPad. That will then later fail spectacularly because it
assumes that it got a GstAudioAggregatorPad.
Passing a pad template that does not belong to the element class in here

Otherwise setting the srcpad caps based on the sinkpad caps event will

If the upstream segments are just forwarded when the upstream segment
