Wait for a frame to become available before capturing it

Use GstPoll to wait for the fd of the video device to become readable before
trying to capture a frame. This speeds up stopping v4l2src a lot as it no
longer has to wait for the next frame, especially when capturing with low
framerates or when the video device just never generates a frame (which seems a
common issue for uvcvideo devices)

Fixes bug #563574.
