This allows to set plugin key=value properties on run time.
To add encoder plugin property use the following syntax:
-gst.prop="key=value"
Make sure syntax is accurate and that the property is supported by
the chosen plugin, wrong/invalid properties will be ignored silently.
Specific encoder available properties can be viewed by:
gst-inspect-1.0 <PLUGIN-NAME>

* This patch useful for encoders tuning and testing (later we can introduce
fixed encoders setups), hence not checking for validity of input.
* I dropped sstream in previous patch but i found it useful here and added it
again, alternative suggestions are welcome
