This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.

GstController improvements
Extensions to the latency setting behaviours
Ability for plugins to register dependencies to trigger re-scanning

and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.

zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto

opened
PKGLOCALEDIR and which install their locale files directly under
${PREFIX}/${PKGLOCALEDIR} and sort the PLIST file entries. From now
on, pkgsrc/mk/plist/plist-locale.awk will automatically handle
transforming the PLIST to refer to the correct locale directory.
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).

* gst_base_src_set_format
Changes from the 0.8 series to 0.10 series:
* Refcounting and API revised for thread safety, see rules in
docs/design/part-MT-refcounting.txt
* Scheduling is now done by the elements, they start/stop
processing threads themselves. This removes the need for
a separate scheduler.
* State changes now happen from sink to source. This makes sure
that downstream elements are ready to process data when upstream
starts producing.
* EOS/ERROR/... does not change the state of elements anymore. This
means that when the application sets the state on an element, it
remains in this state.
* GMainLoop integration. Information on the state of the pipeline
is now received in the mainloop via the GstBus.
* Events move separate from the datastream, this allows for both
in and out of sync delivery of events.
* Generic _pull() replaced by _pull_region() so that random access
can be made faster.
* data passing happens from PAUSED, called the preroll phase. In this
state no data is rendered but it is queued in the sinks.
* negotiation simplified. Caps are now attached to buffers and travel
along with the datastream.
* GstBuffer is now subclassable.
* Ghostpads now look and feel like real pads.
* New Seeking/flushing policy.
* Addition of base classes and helper functions in the core to abstract
away the harder parts of plugin development.
