The purpose of a deep buffer copy is to be able to release the source
buffer and all its dependencies. Attaching the parent buffer meta to
the newly created deep copy needlessly keeps holding a reference to the
parent buffer.
The issue this solves is the fact you need to allocate more
buffers, as you have free buffers being held for no reason. In the good
cases it will use more memory, in the bad case it will stall your
pipeline (since codecs often need a minimum number of buffers to
actually work).

Starting with Meson 0.62, meson automatically populates the variables
list in the pkgconfig file if you reference builtin directories in the
pkgconfig file (whether via a custom pkgconfig variable or elsewhere).
We need this, because ${prefix}/libexec is a hard-coded value which is
incorrect on, for example, Debian.
Bump requirement to 0.62, and remove version compares that retained
support for older Meson versions.

- Update the docker image we use, starting using the standard one adding
`gtk4-doc` as required by rust plugins
- Update the plugins_doc_caches as required, some more plugins are built
with the new image
- Install ninja from pip as the version from F31 is too old
- Avoid buildings all GSreamer plugins when building the doc as it takes
time and resources for no good reason
- Stop linking to `GInstanceInitFunc` as it is not present in latest GLib
documentation, leading to warnings in hotdoc.

We are always building our printf implementation, even when
GST_DEBUG is disabled, since we are exposing api (gst_print*)
that's dependant on our printf behavior.
We don't need to keep __gst_info_fallback_vasprintf around anymore.

GLib made the unfortunate decision to prevent libgobject from ever being
unloaded, which means that now any library which registers a static type
can't ever be unloaded either (and any library that depends on those,
ad nauseam).

If read_one or write_one was called but the stream closed before it could
read/write a whole packet, read_one/write_one would hang indefinitely,
consuming 100% CPU. This commit fixes that by treating a short read/write
as an error.

Theoretically having elements in locked state should not have any effect
at all when the surrounding bin is doing state changes. However
previously a state change error of a locked element would cause the
bin's state change to also fail, which is clearly not intended.
State change failures of locked elements are to be handled by whoever
set the element to locked state. By always returning them here it is
impossible for the owner of the element to handle state change failures
gracefully without potentially affecting the whole pipeline's state
changes.
Non-failure returns are still returned as-is as the distinction between
ASYNC/NO_PREROLL/SUCCESS has big consequences on the state changes of
the bin and overall pipeline. Theoretically SUCCESS should also be
returned in all cases but I can't estimate the effects this would have
on the overall pipeline.

The parent refcount is of the *transformed* buffer, not the input
buffer.
Also update the docs to clarify that @transbuf is the transformed
buffer, and not the buffer on which a transformation is being
performed.
Due to this bug, modifying the structure of a meta that has been
copied to another buffer fails with:
gst_structure_set: assertion 'IS_MUTABLE (structure) || field == NULL' failed
Add a test for the same.

The is_gst_mini_object_check would sometimes detect a proper GObject
as a mini object, and then bad things happen.
We know whether a pointer is a proper GObject or a MiniObject here
though, so just pass that information to the right code paths and
avoid the heuristics altogether.
Eliminates all remaining uses of object_is_gst_mini_object().

1.21.0.1 should not satisfy a check for 1.22.0.
If someone needs more control they should do a feature check for
the symbol in the headers or lib.

And also don't assert that there are no buffers queued up when handling
an EOS event. The pad's streaming thread might've already received a new
stream-start event and queued up a buffer in the meantime.
This still leaves a race condition where the srcpad task sees all pads
in EOS state and finishes the stream, while shortly afterwards a pad
might receive a stream-start event again, but this doesn't seem to be
solveable with the current aggregator design.

If compiled with -Dgstreamer:gst_debug=false and we have
GST_REMOVE_DISABLED defined we will get the following compiler error:
```
[...]/libgstreamer-1.0.so.0.2100.0.p/gst.c.o: in function `gst_deinit':
[...]/gst/gst.c:1258: undefined reference to `_priv_gst_debug_cleanup'
[...] hidden symbol `_priv_gst_debug_cleanup' isn't defined
```
Add the missing define guard to avoid this.

The latency messages are non-deterministic and can arrive before/after
async-done or during state-changes as they are posted by e.g. sinks from
their streaming thread but bins are finishing asynchronous state changes
from a secondary helper thread.
To solve this, expect latency messages at any time and assert that we
receive one at some point during the test.

Previously it was only possible to request them with the exact template
name, e.g. 'src_%s', but not with "instantiated" names that would match
this template, e.g.'src_foo_bar'.
This is now possible and a test was added for this, in addition to
fixing a previously invalid test.
