events: remove STREAM_CONFIG
We won't be able to implement this so it's better to move it out of the way.

-GST_EVENT_STREAM_CONFIG
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-A stream config event is sent downstream by an element to pass stream headers
-or codec/stream setup data to elements downstream.
-
-Stream headers are buffers that are to be pre-pended to a stream to create
-a valid decodable bitstream. This is useful for e.g. network elements who
-will send such stream headers first when a new client connects in the middle
-of a streaming session. The stream headers and the current data will then
-create a valid decodable stream. Stream headers are usually also sent as
-buffers at the beginning of a stream in addition to the rest of the stream
-data.
-
-Setup data is codec config data that must be communicated outside of the
-data stream and is required by the consumer / downstream element in order
-to interpret the data stream correctly. Prepending it to the data stream is
-usually not allowed and will not yield a valid stream.
