It's possible that setcap is installed, but the libcap headers/libs aren't (e.g.
during cross compilation, when you have the program installed for the host,
but need the headers of the target). Also removes the need to manually check
for the libcap headers.
This adds two custom gdb commands:
'gst-dot' creates dot files that a very close to what
GST_DEBUG_BIN_TO_DOT_FILE() produces. Object properties and buffer content
(e.g. codec-data in caps) are not available.
'gst-print' produces high-level information about GStreamer objects. This
is currently limited to pads for GstElements and events for the pads. The
output can look like this:
(gdb) gst-print pad.object.parent
GstMatroskaDemux (matroskademux0) {
SinkPad (sink, pull) {
}
SrcPad (video_0, push) {

This adds gdb pretty printer for some GStreamer types.
For GstObject pointers the type and name is added, e.g.
"0x5555557e4110 [GstDecodeBin|decodebin0]".
For GstMiniObject pointers the object type is added, e.g.
"0x7fffe001fc50 [GstBuffer]".
For GstClockTime and GstClockTimeDiff the time is also printed in human
readable form, e.g. "150116219955 [+0:02:30.116219955]".
Fixes#320
strncpy() is assumed to be for strings so the compiler assumes that
it will need an extra byte for the string-terminaning NULL.
For cases where we know it's actually "binary" data, just copy it
with memcpy.

There were a few errors:
* The plugin scanner now accepts executable path as an argument.
In case it is NULL, argc == 2
* We find the executable path in init_pre instead of gst_init,
allowing this to work when gst is initialized through the
option group (eg gst-inspect)
* There was a semi-colon missing in the __APPLE__ #ifdef
When a plugin declares a dependency using this flag, all the
relative paths are considered to be relative to the path of
the main executable.
We try to determine the path of the executable portably,
with implementations provided for Linux, Windows and Mac.
If retrieval of the path fails, we will not detect changes.
In order for the main executable path to be the same when
scanning a plugin in a child process, a new variable is
exposed in gst_private.h, _gst_executable_path

This patch reorganize the bash completion scripts in order to install
the binary helper (gst-completion-helper) in libexec path rather then
share folder. Most Linux hierarchy compliance requires that no binary
executable are placed in share. We also cleanup the unused .pc entries
and remove copy pasted parts of the script. Note that other project
including the common helper, should now use $_GST_HELPER to read
the binary executable gst-completion-helper. This helper is not longer
version, as it is placed in a versionned subfolder
(libexec/gstreamer.10) just like the other helpers (scanner and ptp).

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.
My previous fix for #758029 wasn't quite right and simply made the race rarer.
Some of the files are installed by install-exec and others by install-exec, so
the hooks need to be split too.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=758029
The install hook needs to be a install-data-hook not an install-exec-hook as the
helpers are installed into helperdir which is considered data (only path
variables with "exec" in are considered executables).
The explicit dependency on install-helpersPROGRAMS was an attempt at solving
this, but this causes occasional races where install-helpersPROGRAMS can run
twice in parallel (once via install-all, once via the hook's dependency).

In file included from gst-ptp-helper.c:40:0:
/usr/include/net/if.h:265:19: error: field 'ifru_addr' has incomplete type

When g_option_context_parse fails, context and error variables are not getting free'd
which results in memory leaks. Free'ing the same.
And replacing g_error_free with g_clear_error, which checks if the error being passed
is not NULL and sets the variable to NULL on free'ing.

GstPtpClock implements a PTP (IEEE1588:2008) ordinary clock in
slave-only mode, that allows a GStreamer pipeline to synchronize
to a PTP network clock in some specific domain.
The PTP subsystem can be initialized with gst_ptp_init(), which then
starts a helper process to do the actual communication via the PTP
ports. This is required as PTP listens on ports < 1024 and thus
requires special privileges. Once this helper process is started, the
main process will synchronize to all PTP domains that are detected on
the selected interfaces.
gst_ptp_clock_new() then allows to create a GstClock that provides the
PTP time from a master clock inside a specific PTP domain. This clock
will only return valid timestamps once the timestamps in the PTP domain
are known. To check this, the GstPtpClock::internal-clock property and
the related notify::clock signal can be used. Once the internal clock
is not NULL, the PTP domain's time is known. Alternatively you can wait
for this with gst_ptp_clock_wait_ready().
To gather statistics about the PTP clock synchronization,
gst_ptp_statistics_callback_add() can be used. This gives the
application the possibility to collect all kinds of statistics
from the clock synchronization.
