rtsp-session-pool: Avoid dollar sign ($) in session ids (1.12 KB, patch)

Description Olivier Crête 2015-11-19 19:48:50 UTC 
Live555 in VLC strips off dollar signs and then gets very confused. The stream id is random, so it only happens if the ID happens not contain a $, in that case VLC just fails to play it. We don't loose too much entropy by just skipping it.
