Task function is created only for few elements which need to spawn a
separate thread. queue is one such element. Please go through src code of
queue for more info

Filter elements do not create any threads, they work in same context of
other stream threads. They dont create their own threads

Decoder and encoders might create their own threads internally. But they
won't use gst_task. They might use their own internal thread APIs
