I want to record data from a live source (a RTP call), and I was to add the
recording sub-pipeline once the call is already running. To make ogg/theora
happy, I need a constant framerate, hence the use of videorate.

The problem is that videorate tries to fill data all the way up to the start of
the segment (when the pipeline went playing), this is not what I want, I want
it to start where I start it. So I'm attaching a patch with a new property
"skip-to-first" that does not try to create any buffer before the first one it
receives in a segment.
