By default, macOS attempts to run lldb against a misbehaving process to handle the crash. This does not play well
with the SISEGV/SIGQUIT handler we add in gst-launch/gst-validate. The 'spinning' mechanism causes the lldb
and debugserver processes ran by macOS to misbehave, taking 100% CPU and rendering both themselves and the GStreamer
instance frozen and very hard to effectively kill. macOS's Activity Monitor is also unusable while this is happening.
This patch takes the quickest possible solution of just disabling those signal handlers entirely on macOS.

Allow a project to use gstreamer-full as a static library
and link to create a binary without dependencies.
Introduce the option 'gst-full-target-type' to
select the build type, dynamic(default) or static.
In gstreamer-full/static build configuration gstreamer (gst.c)
needs the symbol gst_init_static_plugins which is defined
in gstreamer-full.
All the tests and examples are linking with gstreamer but the
symbol gst_init_static_plugins is only defined in the gstreamer-full
library. gstreamer-full can not be built first as it needs to know what plugins
will be built.
One option would be to build all the examples and tests after
gstreamer-full as the tools.
Disable tools build in subprojects too as it will be built at the end of
build process.

It's quite confusing to print a function callback signature for
action signals when people need to do a g_signal_by_name() invocation
in order to use this feature. Requires too much background knowledge
about how GObject works under the hood to make sense of that.

Existing codes rely on modified argc value by g_option_context_parse()
but g_option_context_parse_strv() is used in case of Windows.
Count arguments after the option parsing manually.

GLib guarantees libintl is always present, using proxy-libintl as
last resort. There is no need to mock gettex API any more.
This fix static build on Windows because G_INTL_STATIC_COMPILATION must
be defined before including libintl.h, and glib does it for us as part
as including glib.h.

timeapi.h is missing in our MinGW toolchain. Include mmsystem.h
header instead, which defines struct and APIs in case of our MinGW
toolchain. Note that in case of native Windows10 SDK (MSVC build),
mmsystem.h will include timeapi.h
