patch is attached for the caps memory leak fix in gstplaybin2.c

In gst/playback/gstplaybin2.c
Function: autoplug_select_cb()
memory is allocated to local variable 'raw_caps' at line:4707 and line:4708 in an 'if block'. Block ends at line:4737 but memory is not freed.

Applied Fix: Before the if block ends memory is released by adding:
gst_caps_unref (raw_caps);

Patch is attached for the same fix.
