Not doing so would mean that tags would be overidden by any tag events sent by
upstream. Also only send a tag event directly if upstream never sent one.
By default use GST_TAG_MERGE_REPLACE to override tags that exist in both the
upstream event and this element with the ones from this element, but provide a
new "merge-mode" property to adjust the behaviour.

- Align `glib_debug`, `glib_assert` and `glib_checks` options with GLib,
otherwise glib subproject won't inherit their value. Previous names
and values are preserved using Meson's deprecation mechanism.
- Add `extra-checks` and `benchmarks` options in the main project so it
can be inherited in GStreamer subprojects.

Specify "layout" field in src template to make sure it's
set and gets fixated properly if the downstream element
supports both interleaved and non-interleaved caps.
Fixes
gst_pad_set_caps: assertion 'caps != NULL && gst_caps_is_fixed (caps)' failed
critical with e.g.
gst-launch-1.0 rtpdtmfsrc ! rtpdtmfdepay ! audioconvert ! fakesink
Not that the layout really matters in our case since we always
output mono anyway, but non-interleaved requires adding AudioMeta,
so this is the easiest fix.

Upon fatal errors the loop function will first post an error message
then push out an EOS event.
An application may react immediately to the error message by setting the
state of the pipeline to NULL, meaning by the time we push out the EOS
event PAUSED_TO_READY may have reset the seek seqnum to -1.
While this is harmless, the assertion when setting an invalid seqnum
isn't tidy, fix this by simply not resetting to INVALID as it serves no
practical purpose and the next READY_TO_PAUSED will select a new seqnum
anyway.

Certain V4L2 drivers can report that a video receiver is seeing
some signal, but that it is unable to synchronize to it. IOW: the driver
can sometimes report V4L2_IN_ST_NO_SYNC and not report V4L2_IN_ST_NO_SIGNAL.
In particular, I've seen the tc358743 (HDMI-to-CSI2 converter) driver
sometimes report this when deployed to a fleet of embedded Raspberry Pis.
The relevant kernel code is in [1]. The video output is not practically
usable when V4L2_IN_ST_NO_SYNC is reported (only visually corrupted frames,
sometimes with random "snow", are received). I assume that this happens when
either the HDMI cable is poorly plugged in or damaged or when a CSI2 FFC
cable is used and is damaged.
The change in this commit is useful for detecting this working-but-not-really
condition in application code. Applications already listening for the "Signal lost"
message will gain the ability to handle this condition.
There seem to be more V4L2 error flags like this, see [2]. However, I do not
have practical experience with them and adding only V4L2_IN_ST_NO_SYNC seems
like a safer option.

The initial goal was to support the case where we are paused watching a live
stream, and when we resume we can no longer resume from the previously
downloaded position. In that case we internally do a flushing seek back to the
"current live head position". This was also extended since to be able to
handle (utterly broken) servers when we can't really figure out where we are
anymore and therefore trigger that lost sync so we can try to get back on our
feet.
This does fix the issue... but results in spurious FLUSH_{START|STOP} events
being sent downstream. While that's fine for regular playback scenarios, it's a
bit of a wild scenario since a lot of pipelines/applications don't expect such
events when it wasn't triggered by downstream/application.

This attempts to implement the gtkglsink element on Windows using WGL,
as there were some more gotchas that are along the way, since we need to
juggle with libepoxy along the way, meaning that we need a recent
GTK+-3.24.x for this to work properly, i.e. the upcoming GTK+-3.24.43.
Since we are essentially using an overlay compositor only during
rendering, move its initialization and destruction into the
gtk_gst_gl_widget_render() function, so that things are safer as we are
doing things across threads between gstreamer (gst-gl) and GTK, as GL
operations, as above, have more gotchas on Windows.

Some servers might not provide 100% matching PDT when doing updates, or accross
variants. This would cause the code matching segments using PDT to fail if the
segment PDT was 1 microsecond (or whatever small value) before the candidate
segment. And would pick the (wrong) following segment as the matching one.
In order to be more tolerant when matching, we instead check whether the
candidate segment is within the first segment of the segment we are trying to
match.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6610>
If we end up with a segment with an internal time that varies from the supposed
one, this could be for two reasons:
* We guess-timated the wrong segment to go to when advancing or switching
variants. In that case we try to find the actual segment to go to (just before
this change).
* There was a complete playlist change (for whatever reason) and we can't find a
replacement. In that case we want to carry on playback from this position but
need to remember that we moved (by setting the stream to DISCONT, and
resetting the new mapping).
Fixes playback on several broken stream
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6610>
Since the default value of `m3u8->discont_sequence` (before parsing of the
playlist data) was 0 .. we would never properly detect the presence of that
field if it was present with a value of 0.
This would later on cause havoc in playlist synchronization where we would
assume it didn't have a discontinuity sequence specified (whereas it did, and it
was 0).

A lot of streams will do a poor job of estimating proper duration of fragments
in the playlist, but over several fragments have it correct.
Instead of constantly trying to realign the estimated stream time, allow for a
more realistic tolerance of 3-4 video frames
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6610>
When updating playlists, we want to know whether the updated playlist is
continuous with the previous one. That is : if we advance, will the next
fragment need to have the DISCONT buffer set on it or not.
If that happens (because we switched variants, or the playlist all of a sudden
changed) we remember that there is a pending discont for the next fragment. That
will be used and resetted the next time we get the fragment information.
Previously this was only partially done. And it was racy because it was set
directly on `GstAdaptiveDemux2Stream->discont` when a playlist was updated,
instead of when the next fragment was prepared.

When dealing with live streams, the function was assuming that all segments of
the playlist had valid stream_time. But that isn't TRUE, for example in the case
of failing to synchronize playlists.
Fixes losing sync due to not being able to match playlist on updates

Even if no new synchronization information is available.
This is necessary because the timestamp offset logic in rtpbin depends
on the base RTP time that is determined by the jitterbuffer, but this
changes all the time (especially in mode=slave) and the timestamp
offsets have to be updated accordingly. Doing so is especially important
if they're only determined by the RTP-Info, which never changes from the
very beginning.
The interval can be configured via the new min-sync-interval property.
Synchronization happens at least that often, but at most as often as the
old sync-interval property allows.
Both intervals are now based on the monotonic system clock.
Additionally, clean up synchronization code a bit, only emit either
inband NTP or RTCP SR synchronization at the same time, based on which
one has the more recent time information, and only emit RTP-Info
synchronization if it wasn't provided previously at the same time as the
NTP-based synchronization information.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6543>
There is generally no requirement to ignore RTCP SR if the RTP time of
the SR differs a lot from the last received RTP packet. The mapping
between RTP and NTP time stays valid until there was a stream reset, in
which case we wouldn't use that information anyway.
When using rtcp-sync-send-time=false the default of 1s difference can
easily be exceeded, e.g. if encoding of the stream after capture adds
more than 1s of latency.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6543>
Never is useful for some RTSP servers that report plain garbage both via
RTCP SR and RTP-Info, for example.
NTP is useful if synchronization should only ever happen based on RTCP
SR or NTP-64 RTP header extension.
Also slightly change the behaviour of always/initial to take RTP-Info
based synchronization into account too. It's supposed to give the same
values as the RTCP SR and is available earlier, so will generally cause
fewer synchronization glitches if it's made use of.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/-/merge_requests/6543>
Instead of switching on the very first stream, require that all streams
have switched before switching to the different synchronization
mechanism.
Without this there will be a noticeable gap during the switch. E.g. when
going from RTP-Info to NTP-based association, first the first stream
only would get an offset, then the first two, ... then all of them.
Depending on the order of streams this will cause a lot of changes in
ts-offset during the transition.

Previously these parameters were randomly changed in the body of the
function to avoid having to declare a new variable, which made the code
very hard to follow. By marking them as const this won't be possible
anymore in the future.
Also the RTP clock-base (RTP time from RTSP RTP-Info) is an unsigned
64 bit integer as it's an extended RTP timestamp.

Both were entangled previously and very hard to follow what happens
under which conditions. Now as a very first step the code decides which
of the two cases it is going to apply, and then proceeds accordingly.
This also avoids calculating completely invalid values along the way and
even printing them int the debug output.
Also improve debug output in various places.
This shouldn't cause any behaviour changes.

This simplifies the code as it's a much simpler case than the normal
inter-stream synchronization, and interleaving it with that only
reduces readability of the code.
Also improve some debug output in this code path.
