Sebastian Dröge 8d77759834 ptp: Initial implementation of a PTP clock
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.

Building GStreamer on Windows
-----------------------------

Running GStreamer on Windows is currently experimental, but improving.

Building on MinGW/MSys
----------------------
Should work out of the box from the toplevel directory using the standard
Unix build system provided.

This build type is fairly well supported.

Building with Visual Studio 6
-----------------------------
The directory vs6/ contains the workspaces needed to build GStreamer from
Visual Studio.

This build type is fairly well supported.

Building with Visual Studio 7
-----------------------------
vs7/ contains the files needed, but they haven't been updated since the
0.8 series.

This build is currently unsupported.

The common/ directory contains support files that can be shared between
these two versions of Visual Studio.
