    Change videosrc element ordering
    
    GStreamers basetransform has a nasty issue where its caps negotiation doesn't
    keep the ordering of caps when unioning, as a result of this linking the
    pipeline as "<src> !  videoscale ! colorspace ! video/x-raw-yuv" means at the
    <src> element yuv is no longer preferred.
    
    Changing the pipeline to be "<src> ! colorspace ! videoscale ! video/x-raw-yuv"
    forces the videoscale to only negotiate video/x-raw-yuv, which in turns ensures
    the colorspace and <src> element pick the right colorspace.
    
    In combination with emulated formats in v4l2src picking the wrong colorspace
    causes quite a performance hit (the src would do a color conversion in libv4l,
    while the colorspace element would later convert it back to a colorspace
    actually native to the src device!)
