Add RFC3986 URL joining to dashdemux

I have been trying to use dashdemux with various DASH sources and coming
unstuck with mixtures of relative and absolute URLs throughout the MPD files.

I have therefore used a implementation I already had of RFC 3986 and placed it
into a GObject called GUrl and have patched it into the dashdemux element. Git
patch attached.

gurl.c and gurl.h should possibly live elsewhere as they form a generic
URL joining (RFC3986) object which could be useful elsewhere (e.g. in m3u8.c in
uri_join). But since I only needed it to resolve issues in dashdemux, that's
where I've placed it.
