patch for fix the crashing of gst-rtsp-server 

The problem is that the rtsp-client may have no interest in the rtsp-response sometimes and exits early, so writing to that socket will cause a SIGPIPE and make my server crash.

bug fixing:

  change the write command to send command(gst-plugins-base/gst/rtsp/gstrtspconnection.c)

  add MSG_NOSIGNAL flag on send command

    rtsp: avoid crashing on SIGPIPE
    
    Use send() instead of write() so that we can pass the MSG_NOSIGNAL flags to
    avoid crashing with SIGPIPE when the remote end is not listening to us anymore.
    
    Fixes #601772
