[GStreamer] Teardown media players corresponding to media elements moving
outside of viewport
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=319380
Reviewed by Xabier Rodriguez-Calvar.
Setting the pipeline state of non-MSE players to NULL when its corresponding
media element has moved
out of the viewport helps keeping the amount of alive video decoders at bay.
This is specially
useful when browsing some Reddit, Snapchat and similar pages containing lots of
auto-playing muted
videos.
Using this approach for MSE players could be useful as well but would likely be
more complex to
implement due to implications at the SourceBuffer level.
