Patch

I just tried to compile gstreamer core with MSYS2/MinGW
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/msys2/) and got a build error in gstfdsrc.c

This is essentially the same as what is described here:
http://sourceforge.net/p/mingw/bugs/1315/

The Glib doc says that "that scanf() may not support 64-bit integers, even if
G_GINT64_FORMAT is defined" and suggests "using g_ascii_strtoull() instead"

https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Basic-Types.html#G-GUINT64-FORMAT:CAPS
https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-String-Utility-Functions.html#g-ascii-strtoull

I attach a patch with which I was able to build gstreamer core, but note that
it is not tested yet.
