Firefox on N9 run with gstreamer backend

Just compiled version of Mobile Firefox for N9 with gstreamer support.

With small patch it actually works just great.
Package for N9 available here:
http://romaxa.info/fennec/14-gstreamer/fennec_14.0_armel.deb

Tested on:
http://camendesign.com/code/video_for_everybody/test.html - h264 video http://jplayer.org, also tested with mp3 simple test page http://romaxa.info/tests/mp3/test.html .

Still problem with codecs which gstreamer on N9 does not support, like WebM and OGG. Probably could be installed as extra plugins but I'm not sure.
