So for transcoding we would need a CHAPTERS event or tag that the muxer can
handle then...

Another thing that we should support is metadata of the chapters, like the name
of the chapter. I can't think of more right now so maybe it's enough to support
a name for chapters... otherwise a GstStructure for metadata might also make
sense ;)

The implementation could be an interface that playbin and/or decodebin are also
implementing and proxy to the demuxer if the demuxer supports it.

Also the implementation should probably register a central GstFormat for
seeking/querying the chapter (GST_FORMAT_CHAPTER).
