dashdemux: add support for HTTP HEAD method of time sync

The urn:mpeg:dash:utc:http-head:2014 method of time synchronisation uses an
HTTP HEAD request to a specified URL and then parses the Date: HTTP response
header.

This patch adds support for this time sync method. Personally I am not
convinced that the changes required to GStreamer to support this method
warrants its inclusion. I am submitting this patch more as a way to archive it
for posterity, in case it is ever needed.

This patch also requires a change to souphttpsrc, which I will submit as a
separate patch.
