Cygwin unsafe fork patch

You're right; it looks like I stumbled upon the real solution when I changed
the other platform-specific settings.  After testing each of the changes in the
patch individually, it turns out the GST_EXTRA_MODULE_SUFFIX isn't the issue
after all.

For some reason that I don't perfectly understand yet, if the registry is
rebuilt from a fork(), the ladspa plugins either aren't properly loaded.  If
the registry fork is disabled, then they load just fine.

Since anyway using fork() on Cygwin can be problematic under certain
circumstances, all we need to do is define GST_HAVE_UNSAFE_FORK.  Patch
attached.
