/**
 * SECTION:gstregistry
 * @short_description: Abstract base class for management of #GstPlugin objects
 * @see_also: #GstPlugin, #GstPluginFeature
 *
 * One registry holds the metadata of a set of plugins.
 * All registries build the #GstRegistryPool.
 * 
 * <emphasis role="bold">Design:</emphasis>
 *
 * The #GstRegistry object is a list of plugins and some functions for dealing
 * with them. #GstPlugins are matched 1-1 with a file on disk, and may or may
 * not be loaded at a given time. There may be multiple #GstRegistry objects,
 * but the "default registry" is the only object that has any meaning to the
 * core.
 *
 * The registry.xml file is actually a cache of plugin information. This is
 * unlike versions prior to 0.10, where the registry file was the primary source
 * of plugin information, and was created by the gst-register command.
 *
 * The primary source, at all times, of plugin information is each plugin file
 * itself. Thus, if an application wants information about a particular plugin,
 * or wants to search for a feature that satisfies given criteria, the primary
 * means of doing so is to load every plugin and look at the resulting
 * information that is gathered in the default registry. Clearly, this is a time
 * consuming process, so we cache information in the registry.xml file.
 *
 * On startup, plugins are searched for in the plugin search path. This path can
 * be set directly using the %GST_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable. The registry
 * file is loaded from ~/.gstreamer-$GST_MAJORMINOR/registry-$ARCH.xml or the
 * file listed in the %GST_REGISTRY env var. The only reason to change the
 * registry location is for testing.
 *
 * For each plugin that is found in the plugin search path, there could be 3
 * possibilities for cached information:
 * <itemizedlist>
 *   <listitem>
 *     <para>the cache may not contain information about a given file.</para>
 *   </listitem>
 *   <listitem>
 *     <para>the cache may have stale information.</para>
 *   </listitem>
 *   <listitem>
 *     <para>the cache may have current information.</para>
 *   </listitem>
 * </itemizedlist>
 *
 * In the first two cases, the plugin is loaded and the cache updated. In
 * addition to these cases, the cache may have entries for plugins that are not
 * relevant to the current process. These are marked as not available to the
 * current process. If the cache is updated for whatever reason, it is marked
 * dirty.
 *
 * A dirty cache is written out at the end of initialization. Each entry is
 * checked to make sure the information is minimally valid. If not, the entry is
 * simply dropped.
 *
 * <emphasis role="bold">Implementation notes:</emphasis>
 *
 * The "cache" and "default registry" are different concepts and can represent
 * different sets of plugins. For various reasons, at init time, the cache is
 * stored in the default registry, and plugins not relevant to the current
 * process are marked with the %GST_PLUGIN_FLAG_CACHED bit. These plugins are
 * removed at the end of intitialization.
