You know, rechecking the docs, the C API does have a macro called
GST_MIXER_TRACK_HAS_FLAG() used to check what flags a Gst::MixerTrack
has.  We'll try to add a convenience function for this.  For now, using
the Gst::MixerTrack::property_flags() property and seeing if the
appropriate flag from Gst::MixerTrackFlags is set should work just as
well.
