How is one supposed to check if GstPropertyProbe is available? I came across
the abort problem because I wanted to be able to give my users the ability to
switch between "alsasrc" and "pulsesrc" or any other source for that matter.

I would create the element, and then check if it supports GstPropertyProbe
before querying for the available device names. I guess if I am using Python I
can do hasattr(src, "probe_property_name"), but this isn't the right way to do
it, and there has got to be a way to check for this in C code as well.
