dvdemux: add reference timestamp

Colin Kinloch requested to merge ColinKinloch/gstreamer:dvdemux_reference_timestamp into main

This adds a GstReferenceTimestampMeta to each frame.

This is useful for splitting dumped DV tapes by jumps in time.

I tested this with:

gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location='./example.dv' ! dvdemux name=demux ! queue ! audioconvert ! autoaudiosink demux. ! queue ! avdec_dvvideo ! timeoverlay time-mode=reference-timestamp show-times-as-dates=true ! videoconvert ! autovideosink

In testing I noticed that videooverlay interprets all reference timestamps as ntp using 1900 as the epoch, I assume that it the preferred epoch.

Closes gst-plugins-good#625
