+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #705977 +++

With the upgrade of libav, support for S16 and planar conversions were removed
internally and gst-libav now receives the raw planar F32 samples.

For AAC, gst-libav converts the planar F32 samples to interleaved and then
audioconvert converts the F32 samples to S16. This is a lot less efficient than
the tight single conversion loop that was previously used.

We should:

 - let the audio decoder render planar samples directly into the output buffer
 - make gst-libav output planar formats
 - add support for planar formats in audioconvert and possibly other elements
   that could be used in a typical playbin pipeline
