progressive caps negotiation

Small sumary from IRC discussion. A new idea is to have lazily evaluated caps
instead. So we don't add new pad-functions and don't change basesclasses.

gst_caps_intersect(caps1,caps2) would basically just return caps that are
backed by an iterator. When calling gst_caps_get_structure() (and internal
gst_caps_get_structure_unchecked()) we roll the iterator until we have the n-th
item. When calling gst_caps_get_size(), we'd need to evaluate it fully.
