Patch that adds preferred format to caps structure.  Negotiation uses this
preference if available, and attempts to guess preferences of pads (using the
fixate function) that don't directly specify a preference.

This patch is API/ABI compatible.

I'm not entirely happy with the patch, as it creates lots of loose ends.  IMO,
it works correctly in many cases only by mere luck.  Clearly, this is better
than the current fixation, which only has bad luck.
