To allow the refcounting tracer to work better. In childproxy/iterator
these might be plain GObjects but gst_object_unref() also works on them.
In other places where it is never GstObject, g_object_unref() is kept.
A property not defined in a preset file can simply mean that the
user wants it to be set as it default value, and we should not warn
about that.
A missing preset file in a directory can happen has there are several
directory where a preset can be found in.
First load all system presets, then all from the environment variable, then
from the app directory, then from the user directory. Any one in the chain
with the highest version completely replaces all previous ones, later ones
with lower versions are merged in without replacing existing presets.
This is basically the same behaviour as before, just that GST_PRESET_PATH is
inserted as another source of directories between the system and app presets.
It was added in ca08af1f17, but was
accidentially overriding the user preset path there. Which caused inconsistent
behaviour as new presets were still stored in the system path, just not loaded
from there. Meaning you could store a new preset (in the user path), just for
GstPreset to not find it anymore later (because it only looked in the
GST_PRESET_PATH instead of the user path).

Add a function to check if the preset iface implementation is editable and
document this from the implementers perspective.
API: gst_preset_is_editable()
Support for (nullable) was added to G-I at the same time as nullable
return values. Previous versions of G-I will not mark return values as
nullable, even when an (allow-none) annotation is present, so it is
not necessary to add (allow-none) annotations for compatibility with
older versions of G-I.

Use the technique that is now done in GTK+ so that the plugins do not have
to be installed in c:\gstreamer\lib\<debug>\gstreamer-$(GSTApiVersion),
but can be installed in
<parent_folder_of_gstreamer_main_dll>\lib\<debug>\gstreamer-$(GSTApiVersion),
or as per g_win32_get_package_installation_directory_of_module() allows.

Elements such as the GstIirEqualizerNBands would so far not store the properties
of their children. Now we also grab the properties of child elements and try to
restore them.
Remove GST_MAJORMINOR and replace it by GST_API_VERSION
Also set GST_VERSION_{MAJOR,MINOR,MICRO,NANO} explicitely
now.
All versions are at 1.0.0 now for the release soon but
API/ABI can still change until the 1.0.0 release.
Next release versions until 1.0.0 will be 0.10.9X and
these will be release candidates. GST_VERSION_* will
nonetheless stay at 1.0.0.0.
An extra application preset dir help to organize presets created for special
purposes. Fixes#660760
