[Bug 777662] GstStream: Stream type/flags setters seem like a bad idea

--- Comment #2 from Edward Hervey <bilboed at bilboed.com> ---
Yes, it's indeed to avoid storing information in multiple places and use the
GstStream object to store all stream-related information in the creator
*before* the stream object is sent.

A simple solution to this would be to make it writable only if the refcount is
one (i.e. by the sole owner). An alternative would be to make it copy-on-write
(i.e. if the refcount is greater than one a copy is returned).
