c) remove the context storing inside GstElement and gst_element_get_context()
and let elements just worry about that

d) let bins automatically distribute contexts from have-context of one of their
childs to all other childs and accumulate the contexts internally


Nicolas and I talked about this at GUADEC and this all seems like it would
improve the situation a lot, and especially not require any application code to
handle contexts for the normal playbin use case.
