New library for synchronised playback

Submitted by Arun Raghavan @arun

Link to original bug (#776089)

Description

I've been working on gst-sync-server, which I wrote about at:

https://arunraghavan.net/2016/11/gstreamer-and-synchronisation-made-easy/

The summary of this is that the library provides a server and client object such that a server can publish one or more URIs for clients to receive and synchronise to. Mechanisms exist to control client playback (pause/stop for now).

The network transport for control is abstracted into an interface for users of the API to be able to use their own transport, and a default TCP-based implementation is included.

I'd like to propose this for inclusion in gst-plugins-bad, so we have a single, standardised way to provide synchronised playback. There are features that I will be working on (included in a TODO list). This includes support for configuring per-client transformations (for video wall mode), as well as more mundane features such as seeking.

Examples of the API use are at:
