Patch for gst-plugins-good (git)

The attached patch adds support for the Album Artist tag and various Sort Name
tags for iTunes-tagged aac/m4a files to qtdemux, which I rely on for my music
sorting.

Also contained is prelimary support for almost all tags iTunes can handle (e.g.
TV Show related stuff, Lyrics etc.) but I left this commented/ifdef'd out
because these tags have no equivalent within gstreamer at this time. I may also
do a patch to resolve this but I'm not entirely sure what to call these tags so
I thought it would be best to leave it to the developers. Additionally, there
are some pointless tags (e.g. podcast, gapless) that probably aren't worth
including, and others like compilation which might be better folding into the
album artist tag.

The patch is against the current git revision but I haven't tested it due to
the hassle of installing gstreamer-git on my system. However, I have tested a
0.10.16 patch that is basically the same.

I hope the patch is satisfactory, and I would be happy to help out with any
changes that need to be done and/or similar patches for other formats.
