The flush is called on discont and we shouldn't output a new segment
each time a discont happens. So this commit remove the mark for a new
segment when flushing streams by propagating the 'hard' flag passed
on the flusing from the base class.

When dealing with random-access content (such as files), we initially
search for the last PCR in order to figure out duration and to handle
other position estimation such as those used in seeking.
Previously, the code looking for that last PCR would search in the last
640kB of the file going forward, and stop at the first PCR encountered.
The problem with that was two-fold:
* It wouldn't really be the last PCR (it would be the first one within
those last 640kB. In case of VBR files, this would put off duration
and seek code slightly.
* It would fail on files with bitrates higher than 52Mbit/s (not common)
Instead this patch modifies that code by:
* Scanning over the last 2048kB (allows to cope with streams up to 160Mbit/s)
* Starts by the end of the file, going over chunks of 300 MPEG-TS packets
* Doesn't stop at the first PCR detected in a chunk, but instead records all
of them, and only stop searching if there was "at least" one PCR within
that chunk
This should improve duration reporting and seeking operations on VBR files

As a consequence, tsdemux won't remove its pads anymore on EOS.
Fixes the case when mpegtsbase is not able to process new packets
after EOS as the corresponding pids aren't known anymore because
the programs were removed and the pes/psi were kept, preventing the
PAT to be parsed again.

Assume that small backward PCR jumps are just from upstream packet
mis-ordering and don't reset timestamp tracking state - assuming that
things will be OK again shortly.
Make the threshold for detecting discont between sequential buffers
configurable and match the smoothing-latency setting on tsparse
to better cope with data bursts.
When the set-timestamps property is set, use PCRs on the provided
(or autodetected) pcr-pid to apply (or replace) timestamps on the
output buffers, using piece-wise linear interpolation.
This allows tsparse to be used to stream an arbitrary mpeg-ts file,
or to smooth jittery reception timestamps from a network stream.
The reported latency is increased to match the smoothing latency if
necessary.
Signal sparse streams properly in stream-start event and force sending
of pending sticky events which have been stored on the pad already and
which otherwise would only be sent on the first buffer or serialized
event (which means very late in case of subtitle streams). Playsink in
playbin waits for stream-start or another serialized event, and if we
don't do this it will wait for the multiqueue to run full before
starting playback, which might take a couple of seconds.

All pads of a stream are now added at the beginning. In order to cope with
streams that don't get any data (forever or for a long time) we detect gaps
and push out GAP events when needed.

If a discontinuity in the stream is detected, data is discarded until
a new PES starts. If the first packet after the discontinuity is also
the start of a PES, there is no reason to discard the packets.

packet_length is defined as a guint16 in the PESHeader structure. This
definition match the specification. But since we add 6 bytes to the
packet_length value (length of start_code + stream_id + packet_length),
we can overflow the guint16 when the value in the PES header is greater
than 65529.
So use a guint32 instead of a guint16 to avoid overflow.

32 bit integers are going to overflow, especially the PCR offset to
the first PCR will overflow after about 159 seconds. This makes playback
of streams stop at 159 seconds as suddenly the timestamps are starting
again from 0. Now we have a few more years time until it happens again
and 64 bits are too small.
It was previously a mix and match of both variants, introducing just too much
confusion.
The prefix are from now on:
* GstMpegts for structures and type names (and not GstMpegTs)
* gst_mpegts_ for functions (and not gst_mpeg_ts_)
* GST_MPEGTS_ for enums/flags (and not GST_MPEG_TS_)
* GST_TYPE_MPEGTS_ for types (and not GST_TYPE_MPEG_TS_)
The rationale for chosing that is:
* the namespace is shorter/direct (it's mpegts, not mpeg_ts nor mpeg-ts)
* the namespace is one word under Gst
* it's shorter (yah)
When wrapover/reset occur, we end up with a small window of time where
the PTS/DTS will still be using the previous/next time-range.
In order not to return bogus values, return GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE if the
PTS/DTS value to convert differs by more than 15s against the last seen
PCR
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=674536
Using 32bit unsigned values for corrected pcr/offset meant that we
potentially ended up in bogus values
Furthermore, refpcr - refpcroffset could end up being negative, which
PCRTIME_TO_GSTTIME() can't handle (and returned a massive positive value)

From a high level perspective, the new process for seeking h264
streams is as follows:
1) Rewind the stream until we find the first I-slice of a frame,
and mark its offset in the stream.
2) Rewind the stream until we find SPS and PPS informations,
to make sure the subsequent parser is up to date.
3) Accumulate optionnal SEI NAL units on the way.
4) Push the SPS, PPS and SEI units before the new keyframe.

If _set_current_pcr_offset gets called after a flushing seek, we ended
up using the current group for delta calculation ... whereas we should
be using the first group to calculate shifts.
Also add an early exit if there are no changes to apply
When working in push mode, we need to be able to evaluate the duration
based on a single group of observations.
To do that we use the current group values
When handling the PTS/DTS conversion in new groups, there's a possibility
that the PTS might be smaller than the first PCR value observed, due to
re-ordering.
When using the current group, only apply the wraparound correction when we
are certain it is one (i.e. differs by more than a second) and not when it's
just a small difference (like out-of-order PTS).

When we receive sticky events from upstream, always return TRUE.
Fixes the issue where we receive custom sticky events (such as "uri")
and no pads are created yet.
Since all the other timestamp tracking now gets reset on a discont,
it makes sense to wait for a PCR and timestamp buffers like when
playback first starts
Due to mpegts streaming nature some pads are created but are only added
later to the element. This can cause a scenario where the first stream
doesn't have an available decoder (while the next ones still pending
would have) and tsdemux will fail with not-linked as the first stream
added wouldn't be linked.
To avoid this tsdemux needs to add pads to the flowcombiner
when they are created instead of only when adding them to the
element.
* Search in current pending values first. For CBR streams we can very
easily end up having just one initial observations and then nothing
else (since the bitrate doesn't change).
* Use one group whether we are in that group *OR* if there is only
one group.
* If the group to use isn't closed (points are being accumulated in the
PCROffsetCurrent), use the latest data available for calculation
* If in the unlikelyness that all of this *still* didn't produce more
than one data point, just return the initial offset
