All library names listed by *.la files no longer need to be listed
in the PLIST, e.g., instead of:
lib/libfoo.a
lib/libfoo.la
lib/libfoo.so
lib/libfoo.so.0
lib/libfoo.so.0.1
one simply needs:
lib/libfoo.la
and bsd.pkg.mk will automatically ensure that the additional library
names are listed in the installed package +CONTENTS file.
Also make LIBTOOLIZE_PLIST default to "yes".

- Do not install nor build any plugins that require external libraries.
This keeps this package small, makes it modular and will avoid the need
of "fee-based-commercial-use" licenses while building GNOME.
- Split the Makefile and make it easy to create packages for individual
plugins by using Makefile.common.
- Use gstreamer/plugins.mk to automatically register installed plugins in
the plugins database.
- Fix the regex used to export symbols to something that matches better
the original one.
- As a result of the update of gstreamer to 0.8.0nb1 (which requires a
glib2 with the RTLD_GLOBAL fix), plugins work fine now.
