+### Adjust to change in default `flow_control` (aka. `mode`/`demand_mode`) value.

+Now, the default value of `flow_control` option in `def_input_pad` and `def_output_pad` in Elements is `:auto`. Until `v0.12.9`, pads that sepcified neither `flow_control`, `mode` nor `demand_mode` explicitly would have `:manual` `flow_control`. Therefore, `:manual` pads that haven't specified `flow_control` value, now have to do it explicitly.
