[faad] plugin won't compile against faad CVS (unreleased version)

Recent versions of faad renamed all of it's external symbols from faac* to NeAAC*. Backward compatibility (of a sort) is provided via lots of macros defined in faad.h However, the test that gst-plugins uses to detect the presence of faad will always fail, because the test program produced by GST_CHECK_LIBHEADER(FAAD, faad, faacDecOpen, -lm, faad.h, FAAD_LIBS="-lfaad -lm", HAVE_FAAD="no") references faacDecOpen without including faad.h. Because the symbol faacDecOpen no longer exists and faad.h isn't included to redefine faacDecOpen as NeAACDecOpen, the test will always fail.
This is a not-yet released version of faad, therefore I'm not updating yet.
Fixed.
