GstTensor contained two fields (data, dims) that were dynamicallay allocated. For
data it's for a GstBuffer and we have pool for efficient memory management. For
dims it's a small array to store the dimension of the tensor. The dims field
can be allocated inplace by moving it at the end of the structure. This will
allow a better memory management when GstTensor is stored in an analytics meta
which will take advantage of the _clear interface for re-use.
- New api to allocate and free GstTensor
To continue to support use-cases where GstTensor is not stored in an
analytics-meta we provide gst_tensor_alloc, gst_tensor_alloc_n and
gst_tensor_free that will facilitate memory management.
- Make GstTensor a boxed type

Adding an option to keep them no matter what.
Log files are often pretty large and keeping them around can be annoying,
usually people won't look at logs files for passing tests, and we do not
even print them out.

Only in LTC mode we introduce additional latency that is depending on only on a
property and not on the framerate, so waiting for the framerate is not necessary.
In all other modes no latency is introduced at all and the latency query can
simply be proxied.

There is no point in having an endian marker on 8 bit bayer format names since
it is just one byte. Thus remove it.
This also fixes an incompatibility with plugins bad where there is no endian
marker on 8 bit bayer format names as well.

The `reuse` property end up setting the SO_REUSEADDR socket option for
the UDP socket. This setting have surprising effects.
On Linux systems the man page (`socket(7)`) states:
```
SO_REUSEADDR
Indicates that the rules used in validating addresses supplied
in a bind(2) call should allow reuse of local addresses. For
AF_INET sockets this means that a socket may bind, except when
there is an active listening socket bound to the address.
```
But since UDP does not listen this ends up meaning that when an
ephemeral port is allocated (setting the `port` to `0`) the kernel is
free to reuse any other UDP port that has `SO_REUSEADDR` set.
Tests checking the likelyhood of port conflict when using multiple
`udpsrc` shows port conflicts starting to occur after ~100-300 udpsrc
with port allocation enabled. See issue #3411 for more details.
Changing the default value of a property is not a small thing we risk
breaking application that rely on the current default value. But since
the effects of having `reuse` default `TRUE` on can also have damaging
and hard-to-debug consequences, it might be worth to consider.
Having `SO_REUSEADDR` enabled for multicast, might have some use cases
but for unicast, with dynamic port allocation, it does not make sense.
When not using an multicast address we will disable port reuse if the
`port` property is set to 0 (=allocate) and warn the user that we did
so.

Combine the appsrc and appsink settings into one place and ensure that
the appsrc will output a TIME segment, to avoid incorrect segment format
criticals in some situations.
The D3D11 path was already setting the segment format correctly.

The gst_dep.get_variable('libexecdir') may fail in some scenarios
(e.g. building a module alone inside an uninstalled devenv) and
it shouldn't really be reached in the first place if docs are
disabled via options.
Also to avoid confusing meson messages when cross-compiling or
doing a static build.

In the CI we don't have x11 or wayland compositor running,
so the va plugins don't initialize and the tests will keep
running against software encoders/decoders.
However when running locally or inside toolbox, this will
allow va plugins to initialize and be tested.
