SCTE-35 insertion for TS-based outputs

A very basic implementation has been made to add SCTE-35 markers to TS based outputs (TS over UDP, TCP, SRT or RIST).

You can add SCTE-35 markers by sending in a JSON post towards:

http://mistserver:httpport/streamname.json?meta=SCTE35

With Content-Type set to application/json and a POST body of {"splice_out":DURATION} where duration is in miliseconds.

A simple wget command can be done to insert this:

wget --method=POST --body-data '{"splice_out":5000000}' --header='Content-Type: application/json' http://mistserver:httpport/streamname.json?meta=SCTE35 -O - --quiet

This then inserts a valid SCTE-35 marker for any of the TS based outputs. Extending SCTE-35 support and for other inputs/outputs is planned.
