Constructs a new query object for querying the caps.
The CAPS query should return the allowable caps for a pad in the context
of the element's state, its link to other elements, and the devices or files
it has opened. These caps must be a subset of the pad template caps. In the
NULL state with no links, the CAPS query should ideally return the same caps
as the pad template. In rare circumstances, an object property can affect
the caps returned by the CAPS query, but this is discouraged.
For most filters, the caps returned by CAPS query is directly affected by the
allowed caps on other pads. For demuxers and decoders, the caps returned by
the srcpad's getcaps function is directly related to the stream data. Again,
the CAPS query should return the most specific caps it reasonably can, since this
helps with autoplugging.
The @filter is used to restrict the result caps, only the caps matching
@filter should be returned from the CAPS query. Specifying a filter might
greatly reduce the amount of processing an element needs to do.
