Patch to include WSPiApi.h on some plugins and libraries.

Some network libraries and plugins rely on symbols of WS2_32.DLL (namely
getaddrinfo and freeaddrinfo) which only exist on Windows XP and later.
The inclusion of WSPiApi.h (present in the Windows SDK) allows these plugins to
also work on the older Windows 2000.

The provided patch fixes:
gst-plugins-base/gst-libs/gst/rtsp
gst-plugins-base/gst-libs/gst/sdp
gst-plugins-good/gst/udp
gst-plugins-bad/gst/sdp

The mechanism is explained in this MSDN article:
