splitmuxsrc: support taking a sorted list of files as input in the location
property

Complementary to https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=750106 , there is a
need to be able to give splitmuxsrc a list of files that are not named after
the usual numbered pattern.

I wrote a patch for that that abuses the splitmux uri to be able to give a list
of files. The list is meant to work like this:

splitmux://list?/path/to/file1.mp4+/path/to/file2.mp4+/path/to/file3.mp4

It looks a bit ugly, so I'm not sure if we want to do it this way, but it works
quite well.
