        * ext/gio/gstgiobasesrc.c: (gst_gio_base_src_finalize),
        (gst_gio_base_src_create):
        * ext/gio/gstgiobasesrc.h:
        Try to read the requested number of bytes, even if the first
        read returns less than requested, until nothing is read anymore
        or we have the requested amount of bytes. This fixes playback of
        files via Samba as Samba only allows to read 64k at once.

        Implement a caching algorithm that makes sure that we read at
        least 4k of data every time. Some elements will try to read a few
        bytes, then seek, read again a few bytes and so on and this is
        painfully slow as every operation has to go over DBus if GVfs is
        used as backend.

        Fixes bug #536849 and #536848.

        * ext/gio/gstgiosrc.c: (gst_gio_src_class_init),
        (gst_gio_src_check_get_range):
        Override check_get_range() to blacklist http/https URIs
        and whitelist file URIs. More to be added on demand.
