The follow-up and delay-resp messages carry precise
timestamps for the arrival at the clock master, but
the local return time is unimportant, so we should be very
lenient in accepting them late. Some PTP masters don't
prioritise sending those packets, and we reject all the
responses and never sync - or take forever to do so.
Increase the tolerance to 20x the mean path delay.
Also fix a typo in one debug output that would print
the absolute time of the delay-resp message, not the offset
from the delay-req that it's actually being compared against.
Previously, with opportunistic sync we'd track a master
clock as soon as we see a SYNC message, and hence sync up
faster, but then we'd announce we're synched before seeing
the ANNOUNCE, leaving the clock details like grandmaster-clock
empty.
A better way is to start tracking the clock opportunistically,
but not announce we're synched until we've also seen the ANNOUNCE.
We need different export decorators for the different libs.
For now no actual change though, just rename before the release,
and add prelude headers to define the new decorator to GST_EXPORT.
The gst_ptp_clock_new() does not actually require a name. However, for
example the rtpjitterbuffer may create a clock without a name, fail, and
fall back to not using the PTP clock.

This is something bindings can't handle and it causes leaks. Instead
move the ref_sink() to the explicit, new() constructors.
This means that abstract classes, and anything that can have subclasses,
will have to do ref_sink() in their new() function now. Specifically
this affects GstClock and GstControlSource.

Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)
* Seriously fast configure and building on embedded
... and many more. For more details see:

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
Does not matter here but makes Coverity more happy. It can't
know that g_list_remove() only looks at the pointer value but
does not dereference it.

There's not much lost by having the clock idle around a bit longer but it will
potentially allow anybody wanting to use the same clock server again to sync
much faster.
If multiple net/NTP clocks are created for the same server, reuse the same
internal clock for all of them. This makes sure that we don't flood the server
with too many requests and also possibly allows faster synchronization if
there already was an earlier synchronized clock when creating a new one.
