SRC caps negotiation

Hi Peter,

you don't need a query or event function on the src pad, it's much simpler: before you output your header buffers you do a gst_pad_get_allowed_caps(), and if the result is not fixed you truncate the caps to the first caps structure, and there you have your output caps.

Cheers
