I'd like to add two new log levels and associated macros to the debugging
system, namely GST_FIXME() and friends and GST_MEMDUMP() and friends.

The FIXME category is nothing special and works just like all the other levels.

The MEMDUMP stuff works a bit differently in that it takes a non-printf style
message string and data/length arguments and then produces something like this:
