Hi,
when passing a sock fd  to udpsrc and/or dynudpsink these elements close the fd
on state change. This is a problem if the same fd is used in two elements such
as udpsrc an dynudpsink (for ex. for RTP endpoints). The application should
have possibility to control the close() of the passed fd .

The following patch adds this ability with a new property : 'closefd',
defaulting to TRUE to keep the elements in the old behaviour.
If set to FALSE the passed fd (and only this one) will not be closed.

Regards.
