Features of this release
- * improve plugin loading robustness: do not ever unload a plugin after calling into it: should fix mystery crashers during registry loading when a plugin init function returns FALSE (e.g. when some supporting library fails to initialise or a wrapper plugin found no features to wrap and wrongly returned FALSE)
- * configurable memory alignment for GstBuffers
- * add QoS message to inform apps of lost data, dropped frames etc.
- * basesink, basetransform: add support for new QoS message
- * basetransform: accept non-fixed caps suggestions
- * basesrc: fix gst_base_src_new_seamless_segment()
- * GstController fixes and optimisations
- * set thread name for pad tasks on Linux
- * pipeline, bin: fix refcount issue when removing elements during a state change
- * queue2: implement seeking in download mode
- * queue2: implement flushing in download buffering
- * queue2: improve buffer level measurement in download mode
- * fdsrc: allow specifying the size in bytes on the uri
- * build fixes: better checks for uint128_t, inline assembly on OSX, compilation if HAVE_REGISTER_PRINTF_SPECIFIER is undefined, gobject-introspection
- * two symbols were removed that had been exported but never been used or been declared in any header file: gst_element_default_error and gst_element_request_compatible_pad
