Actually the classification should be Decoder as this "decodes" aka decrypts
the stream. If that element (could be basetransform based) has a high enough
rank (>= MARGINAL) and accepts the caps, it will be automatically plugged by
decodebin.

A demuxer has the special notion that it converts a single stream to multiple
streams, which is not the case here. A parser is handled differently in that it
is preferred over decoders of the same type, and magic is added in decodebin if
it's a parser/converter (e.g. h264parse which can convert to bytestream or avc
format). So this here should clearly be a decoder.
