git patch for playbin2 doc

The playbin2 documentation needs some modification: about DVD support, it
states that "In future ways might be added to specify the device as part of the
URI, but at the time of writing this is not possible yet." and gives as example 

"gst-launch -v playbin uri=dvd://1

This will play back title 1 of a DVD in your disc drive (assuming the drive is
detected automatically by the plugin)."

However, the resindvd element uses the following syntax:
dvd://[path/to/device]. Then, both the explanation and the example are wrong.
Running the example code will not work, since there is (usually) no DVD device
named "1".

Side remark: the command line examples given in the playbin2 page
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-base-plugins/html/gst-plugins-base-plugins-playbin2.html
use playbin as element.

The attached git patch addresses these issues.
