In decodebin3 and uridecodebin3 the `force-sw-decoders` boolean property is
added. In uridecodebin3 it is only a proxy property which will forward
the value to decodebin3.
When decodebin3 has `force-sw-decoders` disabled, it will filter out in its
decoder and decodable factories those elements within the 'Hardware'
class, at reconfiguring output stream.
playbin3 adds by default GST_PLAY_FLAG_FORCE_SW_DECODERS, and sets
`force-sw-decoders` property accordingly to its internal uridecodebin, also
filters out the 'Hardware' class decoder elements when caps
negotiation.
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.
In order to flush out multiqueue, we send again a STREAM_START and
then a EOS event.
The problem was that was that we might end up pushing out on the
output of multiqueue (and therefore decodebin3) a series of:
* EOS / STREAM_START / EOS
Apart from the uglyness of such output, If decodebin3 is used with
elements such as concat on their output, they might potentially
block on that second STREAM_START.
In order to make sure we don't end up in that situation we send
a custom STREAM_START event when refreshing multiqueue (which we
drop on the output) and we don't special case EOS events on streams
on which we already got EOS.
At worst we now end up sending at most two EOS on the output of
multiqueue (and decodebin3).
By select-streams event, current implementation of decodebin3
supports deactivate output stream (i.e., decoder element)
in reassign slot(), but cannot activate any slot without track change.

Use the intended sequence for re-using elements:
* EOS
* STREAM_START if element is to be re-used
This avoids having elements (such as queue/multiqueue/queue2) not
properly resetting themselves.
When delaying EOS propagation (because we want to wait until all
streams of a group are done for example), we re-trigger them by
first sending the cached STREAM_START and then EOS (which will
cause elements to re-set themselves if needed and accept new
buffers/events).

Fields related to stream handling (input_streams,
output_streams, slots, guint slot_id) where used totally unprotected
until know.
This lead to several races, especially playing back RTSP streams.
To protect those fields, the OBJECT_LOCK can not be used as we sometimes
need to be able to post message on the bus while holding it.
decodebin3 already has a lock to manage stream selection, and in the end
it makes sense to protect all the stream management fields with the same
lock which is why we reuse the SELECTION_LOCK here.

decodebin3 checks input streams and pushes EOS if all input streams
are EOSed. If not, fake EOS is pushed to the corresponding slot.
When adaptivedemux is used with multi-track configuration,
adaptivedemux never ever push EOS to non-selected track
because streaming thread for the slot stops with not-linked flow return.
So, decodebin3 should generate EOS itself to finish playback.

group-id in stream-start event might be updated in
parse_chain_output_probe (). This cause duplicated stream-start
twice with identical stream-id and seq-num, but only group-id is
different. Although there is no change, stream-start event will
be followed by the first buffer.

Probe for MultiQueue source pad might receive EOS twice,
the first is fake-eos and the other is actual EOS.
And the slot can be freed with fake-eos/EOS if the slot has no input.
Since slot freeing is async, double free can be possible.
So, decodebin3 needs to remove the probe also with slot freeing.

"requested_selection" list might be generated by select-streams event.
And memory of stream-id(s) in select-streams is independent from that of stream-collection.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=775553
Playbin3 takes lock when querying duration and handling
stream-collection message. So,to post stream-collection message,
duration query should be dropped when input pad is being unlinked.

My collection leak fix 83f30627cd
introduced a crash in this scenario: audiotestsrc ! decodebin3 ! fakesink
The reference handling of collection in decodebin3 wasn't very clear and
my attempt to fix the leak introduced a regression where we went one
reference short in some other scenarios.
Fixing this by:
- Giving a strong reference to DecodebinInput making things clearer
- Fixing get_merged_collection() which was sometimes returning an
existing reference and sometimes a new one.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769080
The collection owned by GstDecodebin3 has to be unreffed when disposing.
gst_event_new_stream_collection() doesn't consume the collection passed
to it so no need to give it an extra ref.
