rtpvrawpay: use buffer lists

Collect buffers to send out in buffer lists instead of
pushing out single buffers one at a time. For HD video
each frame might easily add up to a couple of thousand
packets, multiply that by the frame rate and that's a
lot of push() and sendmsg() calls per second.

A good reason to push out buffers as early as possible is
latency, so we don't accumulate the whole frame in a single
buffer list, but instead push it out in a few chunks, which
is hopefully a reasonable compromise.
