port patch

There is a feature in cinnamon to record desktop.
By default it can be activated by Shift+Ctrl+Alt+R.
The red dot in the tray will indicate that recording is in progress.
Once Shift+Ctrl+Alt+R is pressed again the video file will appear by default in
~/Videos.

Screen recording relies on gstreamer's vpx in particular.
If it's missing the error like this appear in ~/.xsession-errors
> ** (cinnamon:71729): WARNING **: 21:12:21.414: CinnamonRecorder: failed to parse pipeline: no element "vp8enc"
So add vpx plugin as a dependency to make it work.
