[MPlayer-dev-eng] MMS support in mplayer begun

[Derek J Witt]

BTW, I only currently have my section of code parsing URLs (like
mms://server/blah). The HTTP code was modified by me, but this patch is
not intended to make it to CVS yet. The functionality of HTTP code still
works without any additional changes.

Currently, the format for the URLs (mplayer mms://server/blah). I just
have my section making an initial connection and returning the servers
initial response.  The 4.1.3865 indicates it likes the player version. 
I had to set the player version to 6.4.1 to keep the stream (and the
server) I'm testing happy.
