Based on my work on https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=654799, I
propose the following changes to the API:

* add a running_time field to the upstream event
* add a count field to the upstream event 

These two would make it easier to create chunks (like in HLS) when muxing
multiple streams. The running_time would allow you to specify what exactly goes
in the next chunk. Encoders would wait running_time before pushing the event
and forcing a new keyframe.

The count field is needed in case you want to start a playlist at an
alternative bitrate mid-stream and you need to specify at what $count the
playlist starts.

If people agree, i'm willing to do the changes to move this a bit forward.
