François Laignel 9f27bde36a aws: use fixed BehaviorVersion
Quoting [`BehaviorVersion` documentation]:

> Over time, new best-practice behaviors are introduced. However, these
> behaviors might not be backwards compatible. For example, a change which
> introduces new default timeouts or a new retry-mode for all operations might
> be the ideal behavior but could break existing applications.

This commit uses `BehaviorVersion::v2023_11_09()`, which is the latest
major version at the moment. When a new major version is released, the method
will be deprecated, which will warn us of the new version and let us decide
when to upgrade, after any changes if required. This is safer that using
`latest()` which would silently use a different major version, possibly
breaking existing code.

gst-plugin-aws

This is a GStreamer plugin to interact with Amazon Web Services. We currently have elements to interact with S3 and Transcribe.

AWS Credentials

AWS credentials are picked up using the mechanism described by AWS SDK. At the moment, that is:

  1. Environment variables: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
  2. AWS credentials file. Usually located at ~/.aws/credentials.
  3. IAM instance profile. Will only work if running on an EC2 instance with an instance profile/role.

An example credentials file might look like:

[default]
aws_access_key_id = ...
aws_secret_access_key = ...

s3src

Reads from a given S3 (region, bucket, object, version?) tuple. The version may be omitted, in which case the default behaviour of fetching the latest version applies.

$ gst-launch-1.0 \
    s3src uri=s3://ap-south-1/my-bucket/my-object-key/which-can-have-slashes?version=my-optional-version !
    filesink name=my-object.out

s3sink

Writes data to a specified S3 (region, bucket, object, version?) tuple. The version may be omitted.

$ gst-launch-1.0 \
    videotestsrc ! \
    theoraenc ! \
    oggmux ! \
    s3sink uri=s3://us-west-1/example-bucket/my/file.ogv?version=my-optional-version

s3hlssink

Writes a single variant HLS stream directly to a specified S3 (region, bucket, path prefix) tuple. Takes the encoded audio and video stream as input, and uses hlssink3 if available, else hlssink2. HLS stream parameters such as playlist length, segment duration, etc. can be tweaked by accessing the underlying sink using the hlssink property.

awstranscriber

Transcribes audio to text.
