I will let slomo comment more on the APIs, maybe we'd need to rename a few
functions and remove a couple of (unused) interfaces along the way to make it
more in-line with the rest of GStreamer APIs.

Proposed removals:
- gst_bit_writer_set_pos(): unused, an unpracticable if the GstBitWriter memory
was wrapped from user memory. i.e. this wouldn't work in this case.

Proposed name changes:
- gst_bit_writer_init/new(): single variant. If data is NULL, then allocation
is maintained by GstBitWriter
- gst_bit_writer_get_remaining(): instead of _get_space()

That's only what immediately comes out of my mind. Other comments appreciated.
