The dshowvideosrc plugin doesn't handle device disconnections.

A quick an dirty way of solving it is replacing g_cond_wait in ::create() with
a timed wait and error out after X seconds.

The good way woud be to set an event listener for the dshow graph and handle
graphs event properly to notify a device disconnection.

Feedback is welcome.
