0e6aa69366 faq: Minor update to ssh key generation commands
fd.o requires RSA keys, and in general, users would probably want to
make a per-server key file rather than overwrite id_rsa, id_rsa.pub.

92b1df0186 faq: fix link to gst-uninstalled on cgit
Fix link to gst-uninstalled now that it's been moved, and fix a typo
while we're at it. Also add a new section to 'Building GStreamer from
git' that points to the 'How do I develop against an uninstalled copy
of GStreamer' section.

8baf6fa494 scripts: move gst-uninstalled from docs/faq to scripts
Don't include the long gst-uninstalled script in verbatim in the faq anymore
(there is a link to cgit). Dist the script under its new location.

3c7c9692ac plugin-scanner: rename plugin-scanner helper binary to gst-plugin-scanner
and install into a different directory $(libexecdir/gstreamer-0.10) so that
everything is versioned properly.

NOTE: run 'make clean' after updating; if you are running an uninstalled setup,
you will need to update your gst-uninstalled script (unless it's symlinked
to gstreamer core master) and exit/enter your uninstalled environment to get
the updated environment. If you are running an installed setup, you should
run 'make uninstall' before merging this change or remove the old
plugin-scanner binary manually.

Fixes #601698.

8bf3d8cec2 registry: Support installed/uninstalled plugin-scanner helper
Add a simple version check when starting the plugin-scanner so we can
verify we're talking to one that talks the same language.
First try a plugin-scanner in the installed path, then try one via the
GST_PLUGIN_SCANNER env var if that doesn't work.
Update the uninstalled script.
Install the plugin-scanner to the libexec dir

0f0d3cb146 gst-uninstalled: refine search paths for uninstalled plugin modules
Use more refined search paths for our plugin modules. Not only does
this make things much faster in an uninstalled setup, it also makes
sure we're not accidentally using out-of-date plugins built ages
ago as part of a (failed) 'make distcheck' when we forget to clean
up the distcheck build directory.

a1549d67de gst-uninstalled: add gst-rtsp-server bits and break up overly long lines
Add some of the bits needed for an uninstalled gst-rtsp-server (so gdb works
on the examples etc.). Python bits are still missing, and we might need an
-uninstalled.pc file as well in the future. Break up very long lines to make
them easier to read and maintain. Also remove gst-plugins paths from the
old days.
