Nicolas Dufresne e272ae281f task: Introduce gst_task_resume() API
This new API allow resuming a task if it was paused, while leaving it to
stopped stated if it was stopped or not started yet. This new API can be
useful for callback driver workflow, where you basically want to pause and
resume the task when buffers are notified while avoiding the race with a
gst_task_stop() coming from another thread.

/**
* SECTION:gsttask
* @title: GstTask
* @short_description: Abstraction of GStreamer streaming threads.
* @see_also: #GstElement, #GstPad
*
* #GstTask is used by #GstElement and #GstPad to provide the data passing
* threads in a #GstPipeline.
*
* A #GstPad will typically start a #GstTask to push or pull data to/from the
* peer pads. Most source elements start a #GstTask to push data. In some cases
* a demuxer element can start a #GstTask to pull data from a peer element. This
* is typically done when the demuxer can perform random access on the upstream
* peer element for improved performance.
*
* Although convenience functions exist on #GstPad to start/pause/stop tasks, it
* might sometimes be needed to create a #GstTask manually if it is not related to
* a #GstPad.
*
* Before the #GstTask can be run, it needs a #GRecMutex that can be set with
* gst_task_set_lock().
*
* The task can be started, paused and stopped with gst_task_start(), gst_task_pause()
* and gst_task_stop() respectively or with the gst_task_set_state() function.
*
* A #GstTask will repeatedly call the #GstTaskFunction with the user data
* that was provided when creating the task with gst_task_new(). While calling
* the function it will acquire the provided lock. The provided lock is released
* when the task pauses or stops.
*
* Stopping a task with gst_task_stop() will not immediately make sure the task is
* not running anymore. Use gst_task_join() to make sure the task is completely
* stopped and the thread is stopped.
*
* After creating a #GstTask, use gst_object_unref() to free its resources. This can
* only be done when the task is not running anymore.
*
* Task functions can send a #GstMessage to send out-of-band data to the
* application. The application can receive messages from the #GstBus in its
* mainloop.
*
* For debugging purposes, the task will configure its object name as the thread
* name on Linux. Please note that the object name should be configured before the
* task is started; changing the object name after the task has been started, has
* no effect on the thread name.
