the current documentation is very wrong

Hi,

The current documentation for GStreamer Base Plugins 1.0 (1.12.1) regarding
rawvideoparse is obviously incorrect. The description section talks about
video but all of the rest of the page, Properties, Values and Types, Object
Hierarchy, Functions, Property Details, etc, is about audio.

In addition, I am confused about rawvideoparse vs. videoparse. 
gst-inspect-1.0 does not show rawvideoparse but does show videoparse. The
documentation only shows entries for the rawvideoparse and not videoparse.
rawvideoparse is also shown in the documentation for GStreamer Bad Plugins
1.0 (1.12.1) but this link very incomplete and appears that its inclusion in
the Bad Plugins is incorrect.

If rawvideoparse is intended to replace videoparse, would it be possible to
include something in the documentation indicating which version this
migration took place or the name was changed?  In other words, if
rawvideoparse is now an updated version of videoparse, it would be nice if
the documentation could mention that it was introduced in version X and is
intended to replace videoparse.
 
Thanks,
-Andres
