           Summary: player: Makefile does not use configured
                    PKG_CONFIG_PATH when performing introspection scan

Patch to use the pkg-config path given by the --with-pkg-config-path= configure
script option

When I build gstreamer and plugins, I install the binaries into a separate
directory tree. This means that when compiling plugins I need to use the
configure "--with-pkg-config-path=" option to point to where the pkg-config
files can be found in the separate tree. When I try to compile, the build fails
when the introspection scanner is invoked because it cannot find the pkg-config
files.

The following patch sets the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable, to the value
given by the configure "--with-pkg-config-path=" option, when invoking the
introspection scanner. This allows the build to succeed.
