The textoverlay element will rerender the text string whenever
overlay sets the 'need_render' flag to TRUE. Previously, we
lazily set the flag to TRUE every time the time string was requested.
Now, we save a copy of the previously given string, and only set
'need_render' to TRUE if the string has changed.
In my tests with a 30fps video stream, and a time string including
a seconds field, this change reduced the CPU usage of the clockoverlay
element from 60% to 5%.
Fixes bug #627780.
We currently don't use the GAP flag for video and the docs say
that this is for buffers, that have been created to fill a gap
and contains neutral data. For video this is the previous frame.
This information can be used by encoders to encode the duplicated
frames more efficiently. See bug #627459.
When calling gobject-introspection scanner, make sure our own
freshly-built libs within the source tree (well, build dir) come
first in the PKG_CONFIG_PATH. May or may not help to make sure
that it doesn't pick up older external plugins-base libs (or
.gir files) from outside the source tree / build directory as
dependencies of the introspected lib instead of using the
stuff we just built in a sibling directory.

Change "Src" into "Source" (we use that elsewhere). I did not keept "Src" as it
is quite unlikely that someone plugs appsrc by searching the registry by classification.
Alsa seems to expect that we initialize it. Remove the variable and pass NULL
as we actually don't use it. In alsasink also #ifdef one section that is
grabing diagnostics to be disabled, when logging is disabled (the code was
using the out parameter as well).
Fixes#626125
That is, if eos is received which will not be forwarded, and the stream
has not yet seen any data, then send a buffer to preroll downstream
(which might otherwise be accomplished by the eos event).
Streamsynchronizer excepts to see stream-changed msg for all streams, but to
arrange for this, video and subtitle streams need to be decoupled by means
of queues (due to pad blocks that may occur).
Fixes#626463.
Specifically, as the latter may have one thread pushing EOS to several streams,
that needs to be decoupled into various thread to prevent preroll hanging
problems.
Otherwise we're producing different caps and basetransform thinks that it
can't passthrough buffer allocations, etc.
In 0.11 all video caps really should have the PAR set...
Do not use the result of inner ifd's parsing to increment
the current tag index. The reasons are:
1) The function returns a boolean.
2) The inner ifd's tags are in a separate table, so they shouldn't
interfere with its parent ifd table parsing.
Rather than only left, right, top, etc, allow for horizontal and vertical
positioning on a scale from 0 to 1.
Also cater for configuring rendered text color.
Fixes#624920.

... which generalizes the current listing of white, black, etc.
In particular, also allow specifying alpha channel, and modify
some structures and pattern filling to cater for alpha value as well.
Fixes#624919.
