The initial goal was to support the case where we are paused watching a live
stream, and when we resume we can no longer resume from the previously
downloaded position. In that case we internally do a flushing seek back to the
"current live head position". This was also extended since to be able to
handle (utterly broken) servers when we can't really figure out where we are
anymore and therefore trigger that lost sync so we can try to get back on our
feet.
This does fix the issue... but results in spurious FLUSH_{START|STOP} events
being sent downstream. While that's fine for regular playback scenarios, it's a
bit of a wild scenario since a lot of pipelines/applications don't expect such
events when it wasn't triggered by downstream/application.

Set as much information as possible on the slot (including the associated
track) *before* the associated source pad is added to the element.
We need this so that incoming event/queries can be replied to if they are
received when adding the pad

Is a seek is done on stream-collection post, there are no selected streams
yet. Therefore none would be chosen to adjust the key-unit seek.
If no streams are selected, fallback to a default stream (i.e. one which has
track(s) with GST_STREAM_FLAG_SELECT).

Avoid a deadlock if a downstream seeking query happens while the scheduler
thread is holding the manifest lock (for example during a seek back to live).
Instead, do a more elaborate fix where the external calls that need access to a
'manifest' access a copy that's updated during a manually triggered manifest
update callback.

Rename track_dequeue_data_locked() to
gst_adaptive_demux_track_dequeue_data_locked(), since it's non-static.
Make find_stream_for_track_locked() static since it's only used in the main
gstadaptivedemux.c file.

The stream selection is done on the currently outputting tracks, but in order to
(de)activate the backing streams we can only do it if the input and output
period are identical.
Fixes crash when doing stream selection during period migration

Unlike the legacy elements, GstAdaptiveDemuxStream is a GObject now,
so a bunch of things that were actually stream methods on the
parent demux object can directly become stream methods now.
Move the stream class out to a header of its own.

Previously the minimum buffering threshold was hardcoded to a specific
value (10s). This is suboptimal this an actual value will depend on the actual
stream being played.
This commit sets the low watermark threshold in time to 0, which is an automatic
mode. Subclasses can provide a stream `recommended_buffering_threshold` when
update_stream_info() is called.
Currently implemented for HLS, where we recommended 1.5 average segment
duration. This will result in buffering being at 100% when the 2nd segment has
been downloaded (minus a bit already being consumed downstream)

Change the way streams are woken up to download more data.
Instead of checking the level on tracks that are being
output as data is dequeued, calculate a 'wakeup time'
at which it should download more data, and wake up
the stream when the global output position crosses
that threshold.
For efficiency, compute the earliest wakeup time
for all streams and store it on the period, so the
output loop can quickly check only a single value
to decide if something needs waking up.
Does the same buffering as the previous method,
but ensures that as we approach the end of
one period, the next period continues incrementally
downloading data so that it is fully buffered when
the period starts.
Fixes issues with multi-period VOD content where
download of the second period resumes only after
the first period is completely drained.

When advancing fragment in live, it's normal to return
GST_FLOW_EOS when playing at the live edge of the available
fragments. In that case, we still want to adjust bitrate
dynamically.
Fixes issue with dashdemux2 where the current bitrate of
each adaptation set is changed to the lowest one when
updating the mpd for a live stream.

Handle select-streams and seek events in an element
level send_event() vfunc, so they can be received
before any source pads are created.
This allows preferred streams to be selected before
segment downloading starts.

When playing live, it's possible that one stream reaches
the end of the available playback window and goes to sleep
waiting for a manifest update, and the manifest update
introduces a new period. In that case, the sleeping
stream needs to wake up and go 'properly' EOS before we
can advance the input to the new period.
Accordingly, make sure that a stream's last_ret value
is not marked as EOS if it's just sleeping waiting for a live
manifest update.
Also fix the output loop to go back and re-check if it's
time to switch to the next period after dequeuing and
discarding an EOS event.

We are already in the main scheduler thread, therefore we can do the "seek back
to live" directly. This also avoids other pending actions to take place.
Also handle the loss of sync when doing manifest updates.

Close some race conditions in switching to the next period,
by ensuring the tracks are completely drained first and by
not outputting EOS events to the output source pad
if there is another period pending.
Fixes Manifest_MultiPeriod_1080p.mpd some more.
