William Manley 517f50f54f v4l2src: Fix support for mpegts streams
It seems that GStreamer's mpegts elements (tsdemux, tsparse) require caps
`video/mpegts,systemstream=true`.  As far as I can see the significance
of systemstream is to indicate that this is a container format rather than
an elementary stream.  As this is the case (and I can't understand how it
could not be the case with mpegts) I add systemstream=true to v4l2src's
caps.

This allows v4l2src to be linked with tsdemux for playback from my
Hauppauge HD-PVR with the pipeline:

    v4l2src ! queue ! tsdemux ! video/x-h264 ! decodebin ! xvimagesink

In combination with the next commit this fixes using Hauppauge HD-PVR with
GStreamer 1.0+.

v4l2 plugins
============

The idea is a bit the same as the idea for the v4l1 plugins. We want
one generic v4l2element, and a few child objects (probably only two:
v4l2src and v4l2sink):

                /-------- v4l2src
v4l2element ---=
                \-------- v4l2sink

Both v4l2src and v4l2sink have a uncompressed and a compressed
recording-/playback-mode. Since this is all part of v4l2, the 'client'
of these elements, i.e. an application using v4l2src/v4l2sink, will
hardly notice this. All capsnego stuff is done inside, and the plugin
knows which formats are compressed and which are not.

Please note that the v4l1 and the v4l2 plugins are *not* compatible
concerning properties. Naming has been kept the same where possible,
but in some cases, properties had to be removed or added to make
full use of v4l2.
