    multifdsink: add property to resend streamheaders

    Adds a new property in multifdsink, resend-streamheader.

    If this property is false, the multifdsink will not send the streamheader
if
    there's already one set for a particular client.

    There are some formats in which every stream needs to start with a certain
    blob, but you can't inject this blob at leisure. If the producer wants to
    change the blob in question and sets in as the streamheader on the outgoing
    buffers' caps, new clients of multifdsink will get the new streamheader,
but
    old clients will break, because they'll see the blob in the middle of the
    stream.

    The property is true by default, so existing code will not see any
difference.

    Fixes #578118.
