I'm not sure if this should be merged in this form.

I think maybe it should be based on top of multifdsink or multisocketsink, so
that multiple clients can connect, and get sent stream headers and all those
things.

Then the question is how to accommodate multiple paths/streams on the same
server. This doesn't have to be implemented right away, but we should have a
plan how to do it later, because it affects the design.

One could have one (or more) common server objects shared amongst all the sink
instances. The path could then be a property on the sink, and the sink would
hook into an existing server or create one if one doesn't exist yet. In this
scenario one could build on top of multisocketsink.

Alternatively, one could make a bin with multiple request pads, and each
request pad stands for a path served by the server.
