[Package]: GStreamer

[airidosas252]

Why is it worth to add this package?

Since it's responsible for audio/video playback in apps like Firefox and even Wine, it's a beneficial thing to have. It would be more than useful to have it.
Moreover, GStreamer is capable of running properly even knowing Android limitations.

Additional information

I've compiled it in Glibc environment and it was mostly missing a lot of libraries and had an issue where it could not use pre-existing shebangs. A lot of libraries compiled in Glibc just fine, but some were used from Linux and patchelf'ed. I can't really remember which ones were needed.

Other than that, it did not need any patches. It might need one related to shmem but I don't see any errors at all, both playing audio or video.

At one point GStreamer was showing "bad system call" errors whenever you CTRL+C the instance but after updating glibc packages, this disappeared.

It can also utilize Freedreno for faster decoding. Pulseaudio also provides audio just fine.

I can show you demos that it's indeed working just fine.
