By passing NULL to `g_signal_new` instead of a marshaller, GLib will
actually internally optimize the signal (if the marshaller is available
in GLib itself) by also setting the valist marshaller. This makes the
signal emission a bit more performant than the regular marshalling,
which still needs to box into `GValue` and call libffi in case of a
generic marshaller.
Note that for custom marshallers, one would use
`g_signal_set_va_marshaller()` with the valist marshaller instead.

* decodebin3 and playbin3 have the same purpose as the decodebin and
playbin elements, except make usage of more 1.x features and the new
GstStream API. This allows them to be more memory/cpu efficient.
* parsebin is a new element that demuxers/depayloads/parses an incoming
stream and exposes elementary streams. It is used by decodebin3.
It also automatically creates GstStream and GstStreamCollection for
elements that don't natively create them and sends the corresponding
events and messages
* Any application using playbin can use playbin3 by setting the env
variable USE_PLAYBIN3=1 without reconfiguration/recompilation.
