A basclass for audiovisualizers. Takes care of re-fitting the audio-rate to
video-rate. It receives audio-data at the sampling-rate. It needs to render
video-frames at frame-rate. The rendering needs n audio samples (depends on
subclass). The baseclass takes care of that.

= Feedback =
* put 'Audio' to klass as well ?

= API =

* should we add some basic drawing helpers to the baseclass
  draw_point (x,y,color);
  draw_hline (x1,x2,y,color);
  draw_vline (x,y1,y2,color);
  draw_rect (x1,x2,y1,y2,color);
  draw_box (x1,x2,y1,y2,color); // filled
  - would be nice if we could use cairo
* shading effects
  - would be nice to use a generic 3x3 matrix operation, we don't run inplace
    anyway
  - this way we could also blur the background

= Elements to port =
gst-plugin-ugly/gst/synaestesia -> synaescope
gst-plugin-good/gst/monoscope -> blend into what we have in wavescope

= Elements to add =
spectrascope - done
spacescope - stereo wavescope
- left->x, right->y - done
- polar mapping

= TODO =
- element maker template
- test for baseclass

= Test it =

GST_DEBUG="*:2,*scope*:4"
