    x264enc: Improve x264enc defaults

    - medium x264 speed/quality preset
    - threads defaults to 0 which automatically uses 1.5x number of cpu cores

    Addresses part of bug #607798

    x264enc: Add speed-preset and [psy-]tuning properties

    Use of a rate control method (pass, bitrate, quantizer, etc properties), a
    preset and possibly a profile and/or tuning are now the recommended way to
    configure x264 through x264enc.

    If a preset/tuning are specified then these will define the default values
and
    the property defaults will be ignored. After this the option-string
property is
    applied, followed by the user-set properties, fast first pass restrictions
and
    finally the profile restrictions.

    x264enc: Refactor code in preparation for presets/tunings

    - Make defaults append the appropriate default value to a string. This is
      needed to differentiate between something user-set and the actual prop
      default.
    - Add an internal option string to which _set_property () cases append for
the
      majority of properties.
    - Use gst_x264_enc_parse_options () to clean up application of settings.
This
      will make order of application with respect to the presets and tunings
quite
      simple.

    x264enc: Use new libx264 API to affect fast first pass

    Uses new x264 API to apply reduced complexity values to the parameters to
    increase encoding speed in the first pass of a multi-pass encode. This does
    not impact on final quality.

    x264enc: Add profile property

    In X264_BUILD >= 86 there is a new API for applying restrictions to an
H.264
    Profile. This makes it easier to achieve Baseline Profile for example.
