Currently, making loops using gnonlin requires making many gnlsources and
placing them one after another in the timeline. This is not optimal because the
creation of many gnlsources will use more resources than necessary, and to move
or change the source would require updating all the gnlsources. Gnlobject
should handle looping by itself like so:

1. Create a gnlfilesource and set media-start to 0, media-stop to 5.
2. Set start to 0 and duration to 15.
3. Now when playing, the section of the file frrm 0 to 5 seconds should be
played 3 times. 

In other words, when the gnlfilesource reaches media-stop (at 5 seconds), it
should go back to media-start (0 seconds) and play the file again. This is
repeated until duration is exceeded, at which point the gnlfilesource will be
silent.
