Matthew Waters 86abf49c23 gst: add a promise object
An object that can be waited on and asked for asynchronous values.
In much the same way as promise/futures in js/java/etc

A callback can be installed for when the promise changes state.

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

Running GStreamer on Windows is supported.

Official Windows binaries for each release can be found at:

  https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/pkg/windows/


Building with MinGW/MSys
------------------------

Should work out of the box from the toplevel directory using the standard
Unix build system provided.

This build type is officially supported.

You can build Windows binaries including all required dependencies
using the 'cerbero' build tool:

  http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/cerbero/

This works both natively on Windows or as cross-compile from Linux.


Building with Visual Studio
---------------------------

Building with Visual Studio is possible using the Meson-based build
definitions, but there is currently no support for this in cerbero yet,
so it's not for the faint-hearted.
